They feel like paper to my eyes. Sometimes like a xerocopy. See above for a bit longer reply: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13591030

I had some doubts myself before buying my first e-ink based device. It helped a lot to watch movies on y-t where guys were test driving them.

Not all e-ink displays are of equal quality. The newer ones should be ok, those claiming 16 levels of grey. However the definitive test should be made by your very own eyes.

Edit: I don't have a Kindle.
