Kobo Glo HD vs Kobo Libra 2

Verdict

Overall, the Kobo Glo HD receives mixed reviews. Many users appreciate the high resolution and customizable font weight, but some have experienced issues with charging ports and screen corruption. The device is praised for its tidy design and good price, but some find it quirky to set up. The device is recommended for those who prioritize openness and customizability, but those on a lower budget may want to consider a used Kindle. The 8-inch screen is also noted as an improvement over the 6-inch model.

Verdict

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. However, some customers have noted that the hard plastic cover feels cheap and there is not enough control over line spacing or margins.
