I just found and watched this vid of the phone that the OP is considering (or, maybe this is of the Pro version)
Doesn't look awful to me.
What does give me pause, though, is that the light which illuminates the screen is a blue-ish LED, instead of something red or orange. That is too bright for me. Just like how there are two different kinds of LED bulbs for your house lamp - Daylight and Softlight. The Daylight one interrupts the circadian rhythm. I've made sure to replace any of those in my house with the Softlight variety.
When smartphones first came out, I was really hoping that ones with E-ink screens would be produced. I'm glad to see that I wasn't the only one who was interested in the concept.
