The JBL screen is not backlit, so it is not like looking at a bright computer LCD display. I think it's very comfortable to read on.
One thing that happens with e-ink readers is that you get a flash on each page turn, which you don't get with an LCD screen. People with other readers say the flash isn't noticeable, and maybe you get used to it. For me, looking at the various devices in stores before I bought, it was an extreme annoyance and a major factor in my deciding to go with the JBL. If you look at YouTube, there are videos of side-by-side comparisons that illustrate the page flash.
