We've seen from other screenshots what it looks like with the light off. The answer is like cr*p.

Ever since the first front lit reader with a diffuser layer, eink readers have looked darker with the light off vs those without. I remember this with the first Paperwhite vs the Kindle keyboard. The kaleido screen just adds the mother of all layers and needs copious lighting

I suspect the Libra colour also has screen door effect where you can see a fine grid. Some percentage of users will notice this and some percentage of those will be bothered by it
