@tomsem I know there were always a certain variations per panel. Just stating what im currently seeing reported by more people, and the same is not happening for base kindle. I don't know if it's an issue, some people actually say it's more "true to paper" and are associating this difference to the renewed layer they mention they used that makes the new paperwhite so responsive. Just thought it would be an info id like to know if other in here verified
Thanks for the clarification. Too many threads in this thread.

I think we are talking at cross purposes here. The original message you responded to and quoted is re-quoted at the top of this message. AFAIR, we were talking Paperwhite 5 6.8" screen pixels vs Paperwhite 6/Colorsoft 7" screen pixels.

Not quite sure when the Scribe snuck into the discussion.

If only they'd gone up to 8" on the PW. With buttons. And buttons on the new Scribe. Sigh.

Im pretty sure at this point that they really don't wanna go back to buttons... The only thing i could see it is if they'd make a special "limited" edition of one of their old classic kindle for an anniversary maybe? I don't know if it makes sense.

...
It would be interesting to know how the panels are made. I assumed that initially larger panels were made with a PPI, and multiple displays panels were "cut" from a larger panel. I seem to recall that other technologies do something like this.

This thread is for discussing new Kindles.
But isn't issues with a new Kindle discussing new Kindles?

Not to me. Just so you know, what you prefer is not necessarily what everyone prefers.

It's not about preference. A feature is a feature like it or not.

It's not a feature just because you say it is.

To most a feature is something added while something taken away is just a gyp.
