Good e-Reader

r/ereader

Kobo sells overpriced, defective products. I own a now useless Kobo Elipsa (the $400 model) whose screen just broke simply by the devise falling over and the screen hitting the plastic stylus, which was flat on a carpet. I tried calling Kobo for a repair/replacement, and you can't even reach them by phone. I used the text communication, and they wouldn't do anything to repair/replace - offered me ten bucks off a new model!!! If you buy from this place, consider yourself warned

defective products; Kobo won't support them

 And you also get a charging cable to charge it back up, it is of course micro USB, not the new Type-C reversible but no biggie. And that's your whack, nice and straight forward. There is the Kobo Forma in all of it's glory, it's actually the largest Kobo to date but it's also one of the lightest efforts as well, it is pleasantly light, less than 200 grams just under, so it's 197. It's got this lovely, as you can see there, ergonomic curved design as well so it's actually weighted more towards this side here

 As you can see there you can then sort by bestsellers or most popular or what's new as well, if you do a lot of reading you just want to see what's hit the stores recently. The good thing about the Kobo store these days as well is you can generally find a lot of books around that sort of £1 or £2 price point whereas before it used to be a lot more expensive than that, generally more expensive than the Kindle store. Let's just do a random search for an author, let's see, I don't know, maybe Chris Baracliff, let's see what this fella's doing. Oh look, lots of interesting looking books here, let's try this one here, Dead Dogs, that sounds good

Kobo Forma | Killer Kindle Oasis Rival

 Very light weight. 2. At low brightness, at least I got this feeling that there was no glare at all. 3

 Reading a book, especially using larger font size, would have been much more enjoyable had the device’s size been larger. Considering that I use slightly larger fonts, not enough text shows up on the screen, which is disappointing. Had it been larger and the search been more optimized to take into account the user’s chosen language, I would have given it 5 stars. It’s just a few stops shy of being an excellent device

 The search facility completely ignores the language chosen by the user, and it displays books in whichever language they are available. I quite dislike this bit. 6. Although I have said it already, but I am going to say it again: the size of the device is quite small

 6. Although I have said it already, but I am going to say it again: the size of the device is quite small.

Good device that can be better.

 So let's move on to talking about some of the e-reading features now. So the Kobo Forma is actually the first Kobo that supports landscape mode. And it does it well because if you wanted to use large font sizes, for instance, this is the device to get because you get a lot more words on the page here in landscape mode than you do like a typical six inch e-reader. So you don't have to page forward so much

 It's nice and lightweight for its size. Still not 100% sold on this weird design like getting the Kindle Oasis, having the buttons on the side. I think I'd just rather have them at the bottom personally. But I mean, it is a nice device

 So here's a quick look comparing it to the 6 inch Kobo Clear HD to get an idea of the size difference so you get a lot more text on the screen with the 8 inch eReader. And it's not a whole lot heavier since they're using the plastic based screen. It's still under 200 grams. So here's a quick look at it next to the Kobo Aura 1 just to see the difference in the shape, how much wider it is

Kobo Forma eReader Full Review

 After a week of remaining frozen I am returning the Forma to Walmart and ordering the Aura One Limited Edition from Kobo. I also don't like that it won't fit in the back pocket of my jeans. The Aura One did.

Landscape view locks and too big for jeans back pocket

 but the FORMA is light, great screen, adjusting light for no blue light exposure. 8 inch screen. It has Overdrive so I can borrow directly from my library and Pocket for articles. Best ereader I have ever owned period

Wirecutter

The Libra 2 matches almost all the features of Amazon’s high-end Kindle Oasis for less money, minus the Amazon ecosystem. It’s waterproof, includes physical controls and Bluetooth, and has a 7-inch screen, as well as screen light color-temperature adjustment for late-night reading.

 The Tholino Vision 6, which is the sibling from the Tholino Alliance in Germany, mostly uses the same materials except on the back side, where the Tholino model is using rubberized higher quality plastic and feels much nicer to the touch. The back cover of the Libra 2 is also the reason why the build quality doesn't feel as good as it could. Because the plastic cover tends to make a cracking noise here and there, it's not too frequent, but I definitely notice it in everyday use. Other than that, the Libra 2 feels sturdy and lies well in the hand

 On mobile read, quite a few people have been complaining about UI freezes and crashes. The problems seem to come from Kobo using different hardware components, which is not unusual for any consumer electronics device. However, in case of the Libre 2, it seems to sometimes cause problems. Kobo seems to have revised the hardware design at least once since the launch and newer devices should be less prone to those mentioned problems

 The Kobo Libra 2 launched in 2021 and got a lot of attention back then. But how well does it hold up almost a year after its release? Let's check it out together in this long-term review and see if the Kobo Libra 2 is still a good choice. The Kobo Libra 2 is positioned in roughly the same segment as the Kindle Oasis. It has a 7-inch e-ink screen and an asymmetrical design with page turn buttons

 Which it is. The main reason for that is the hard plastic cover on the back.

Kobo Libra 2 REVIEW: My new favorite - here's why

  And that it is. In conclusion, i like the Kobo a lot and i would still recommend the Libra 2 to anyone because it is a great devise for the price. and a great compliment to anyone willing to compliment their Amazon kindle library with others.

Very nice e-reader!

 It doesn't have that quad core CPU like the Kobo Sage. So it comes with fewer or less features, but when it comes to the reading experience, it is quite good. So check out theebookreader.com for the full review

 They got a good tactile response. The back has a little bit of texture, so it's not slick at all. It doesn't feel like it's gonna slip out of your hand at all like some e-readers do. And like I said, you got the USB-C port here on the side

 So I think this is a really nice device for the price. My one complaint is it's just a little bit on the heavy and bulky side. It's kind of thick on that right edge, but it's not a big deal really. I do, like I said, really like the screen

 So yeah, I think the front light looks great, and the screen in general looks great. Here it is, quick comparison with the larger Kobo Sage that was released at the same time. It's more expensive, but I still think the Libra, in fact, has a slightly better screen here, given it full brightness with the front light on here. It just seems to have a little bit more pop to the text

Kobo Libra 2 Full Review, Plus Screen Comparisons

* Battery life: Libra 2's battery life is nowhere near that of the Paperwhite; in one night of reading, I might lose \~10% of Libra 2's battery, but barely a couple percentage points on the Paperwhite. It's not a huge deal, but I don't want to go back to the Oasis days of constant charging. Charges fast, though, which is a plus, I guess.

  Conclusion: if you're planning to hold a huge library in the device - you'd better give it up.

Most annoying feature: collections

 For this unit that I have here, the battery life will drain 11 to 12% for each hour of audio book playback, so we are looking at a total of 9 hours of audio book playback time. If you are not listening to audio books, Bluetooth will turn off by itself after a few minutes, which is great because otherwise it's going to drain the battery life of this in less than half a day. When it comes to reading e-books, battery life can last for weeks. At the time of making this video, Kobo audio books are not available through the Kobo store on the e-reader, and they are also not available through the Kobo app on the phone or tablet, so you have to find those Kobo audio books on their website

 So this is the Kobo Libra 2 with a 7-inch e-ink Kata 1002 touchscreen display, which is supposed to have faster refresh rate and flipping through pages seems fast enough for me. The resolution is 1264 by 1680, 300 ppi, text is sharp, and the contrast of the e-ink is good. The exterior is made of plastic, the build quality is good, there is no flex at all. We have two side buttons here near to the edge, which is easy to reach and they have good feedback when you press them

 The exterior is made of plastic, the build quality is good, there is no flex at all. We have two side buttons here near to the edge, which is easy to reach and they have good feedback when you press them. The edge where the buttons are also curved slightly, so that's easier for you to hold. The shape of this e-reader is almost squarish

75 times. The battery life will drain much faster when you are listening to audio books. For this unit that I have here, the battery life will drain 11 to 12% for each hour of audio book playback, so we are looking at a total of 9 hours of audio book playback time. If you are not listening to audio books, Bluetooth will turn off by itself after a few minutes, which is great because otherwise it's going to drain the battery life of this in less than half a day

Review: Kobo Libra 2

 I like the shape and heft of it — it's more substantial than the smaller Kindles, which is better for me. There's more than enough lighting, font, and other options to keep me reading. There's even a Dyslexic-style font, which helps many people who simply find it difficult to move from the printed page to ebooks.  Checking out library books isn't that much easier on the Kobo, because the default search takes you to purchase options, so it takes several clicks to check out the book

Not That Different From Kindles
