When you move the two at different angles, the difference becomes more pronounced. But regardless of that, you can clearly see the color difference, which some people may say they either like or dislike.

I've seen a fair number of light gray background LCDs versus greenish background LCDs, and the light gray LCDs always have slight better contrast, and they just look better overall to my eyes than green too.

It's the "little things" that count, which is why I wanted to mention this, so if ever there is a 16c CE that comes out (the one I really want), perhaps the people behind its creation could give thought to the LCD background color. No doubt they used green because that might have been the only one available. But I suspect they didn't really think too much about the background color at all. If they asked for a light gray background LCD for production, they might have been able to source it. Again, this is why I brought up the topic.
