Verdict

The Barnes & Noble Nook GlowLight Plus is a great value for the price, offering a 7.8” display with physical page turn buttons, water resistance, and an adjustable backlight for night time reading. However, some customers have found that the corners of the device are too small and sharp, making it difficult to hold in one hand. Additionally, the device does not support alternate launchers or Tachiyomi.

The Kobo Libra 2 is an excellent e-reader for those looking for a device with a crisp 300ppi screen, 32GB of storage, waterproof capabilities, dark mode, comfort light, USB-C port and hackability. It also has Overdrive integration allowing users to borrow library books with ease and Adobe Digital Editions compatibility.
