The first two in each go were murky, greenish and bad contrast. Horrid quality control Amazon...shame on you...or shame on e-ink. I don't know if it is a QC issue e-ink has across the board of if Amazon bought a cheaper "binning" of screens but in any case it's a mess. I would have given up if I was doing this via post...being able to go right back in and change them made the difference.
I actually own one of those murky, greenish and bad contrast K4s. Changing the font has helped me tolerate it. I do want to let you know the back of the K4s are stainable. I'm not sure if it's just my unit or my case but I bought my K4 in October and it now had black stains on the back of it. I seldom take mine out of the case so I have no idea how it happens. I don't own a cheap case either. I see me upgrading to a KT soon.
