Another comparison post from a lazy eye mortal.
I recently bought the colorsoft (signature) and paperwhite.
Picture one- 0% light on in a well lit room.
Picture two- 5% light on in a well lit room.
Picture three- 14% light on in a well lit room.
Picture four- 0% light on under a lamp.
Picture five and six- near a window at different times. The sun wasn’t very strong today.
Picture seven- just a picture of the one I kept.
The darker one is the colorsoft.
I bought the colorsoft first knowing how einks work. I knew the color would be darker. However, after a few days, I felt dizzy and got a headache after reading.
I bought the paperwhite and the problem went away. I wanted to love the colorsoft and I didn’t mind bumping the light up on it but I think the text is a little blurry and my eyes hurt!! I love the color but I can’t keep it. So now, I’ll be reading comics on my iPad and the paperwhite will be for text. I was also lucky to get a paperwhite with ads that doesn’t show ads!?! Pink isn’t my favorite color but this color is so pretty.
Just wanted to throw in my two cents to the comparison. I have a squint and I wear spectacles. But my vision is a 10 on 10. Just wanted to document my experience as someone with a lazy eye.
PS- ignore my couch. I know it’s dirty. We’re moving so I’m waiting to clean it once we settle down.
Feel free to ask me any questions.
