I’m only able to do this with the Voyage. The background on all my other front lit Kindles is darker, more grayish and muddier. I always need to use the front light with those. |

I kept the Oasis 2, sold the Voyage, no regrets of any kind. I love the screen on my Oasis 2, I only wish it had the warm light option. I don't doubt your experience though, as we all know that screens can vary. For instance, my Forma, bought a year or so after the initial release, does not have the dread "stripe" effect. |

I read that as not using the light as much as possible and keeping the light off.

One of the poorest screens is the PW1.

On other electronics screens, I try to avoid "white" backgrounds. On my lit ereaders, I don't find them too white. For daytime reading, I have my Kobo's light set to 30%. And yes, to each their own. ![]() |

I didn't buy an ereader until I saw one with a light (the Nook ST with Glowlight). Saw one in a store one night, went and bought it the next day.

Not in Canada. A couple of weeks back, I asked Audible.ca why they didn't support Amazon's eInk Kindles and got the same fluff about needing to do more testing. Pretty much exactly the same wording every time I ask the question.
