My replacement PW also has the pink/green blotches or stripes. The font contrast is not very good to increase contrast I increased the light which washes out the text even more. On the K4S I have font size set at 4 on the PW 5 and its not as large as the 4 on the K4S or as dark, 5 is too large on the PW. I need 4.5 with thicker fonts or blacker for better contrast. I debating to continue the lottery or wait until the screen issues are fixed and a firmware solution made to address the fonts.
