PW4 screen quality not uniform?

kript96 · 12-11-2018, 04:44 PM

Do you see a problem on the screen or it's just me? I get it that Pw4 has a more washed out text, what is giving me concern is the fact it seems not really even, some words seems to become more gray just in the middle of it. The problem seems always in the same area, refresh doesn't change anything, should i contact the assistance?

If setting pages to full refresh every time won't change things, I'd return it.

I would return that for another. That would drive me nuts. My PW4's text is a bit washed out but it was consistent over the entire screen. It didn't bother me enough to return it.

Yes i thought it was just how it was but always struggled a little with this thing but then i've seen someone online asking if his kindle had problem and people say it had,the thing is if you're reading you'll probably forget about it, especially the night when is really difficult to see, but those pic i took during the day seems to leave no doubt... How to remove the jb to send it back? Just restoring it will do?

A factory reset will do just fine.
