Re: I played with the new NST with GlowLight

[ Edited ]

I picked up my Glow this afternoon. Things I've noticed so far:

 

  • The background color of the screen appears identical to the N2E.
  • Overall, the contrast difference between the two devices is minimal.
  • With the light on, the contrast of the top 1/2 inch of the screen is noticeably more washed out. With the middle text setting, middle line spacing and first margin settings, the legibility of the top line is slightly distracting.
  • Otherwise, the slightly brighter band of light at the top of the screen isn't distracting at all.
  • The lighting throughout the rest of the screen is a bit uneven, most noticeably when both the screen and ambient light are very low. Not enough to affect the text contrast, though.

 

I'm keeping it; my old NST and NT will be going to family or up on Craig's list.
