All EInk screens these days are Vizplex. The difference in gray scales comes from the controller, see E-book Reader Matrix. On 5" screens, the current choice is between 4 and 8 gray levels. There is a distinct advantage to 8 levels for illustrations. There is also an advantage for illustrations for 6" over 5" screens, so the 505 is a good choice (6"and 8 gray scales).
