  • Amazing Device, bye bye Kindle!!
Color: Black
First - I’ve ordered 2 items from BlueProton (KLC and the Kobo Stylus) and both came earlier than expected, which is always nice. The E-reader: amazing!! The UI is a thousand times better than my Kindle Paperwhite SE. It’s fast, the quality/screen is beautiful, and best of all - you’re not locked into the amazon bs. Love the color and using the stylus for notes, highlighting, and crossword puzzles. Honestly haven’t been able to put the thing down. Yay reading! ... show more

  • Amazing!!
Color: White
This has been absolute dream! I was on the road for the past two years and had trouble finding a way to read (books are heavy, difficult to ship on the move, ect) and this has been a game changer. I don't think I'll ever go back. I can read at night with all the lights off and it doesn't bother my husband next to me, I have access to unlimited amount of books, and super light weight. The quality is fabulous, color is cute, love the easy buttons on the side to flip pages. Its incredible you can look up the definition of words by pressing on it. It's awesome! I researched for a while before pulling the trigger and am so happy I went with Kobo! ... show more

  • favorite ereader
Color: Black
absolutely love this ereader. I have the B&W clara 2, and love that one as well. the Libra Colour feels more alive when i'm reading. the screen hasn't given me any issues so far, except once or twice that "gradient" has shown up; it isn't as big of a deal as i thought it would be. it is minor and hardly noticeable. for brightness, i have had zero issues. it has the lovely warm setting too and both are bright. i can read at night or during the day just fine (i am younger and have great vision, but my mom can also read just fine and she is postmenopausal w/glasses). The ereader has survived a couple knocks off the furniture from my cats, being lugged around in backpacks around town, in cars, and on planes. no scratches or anything. the buttons are wonderfully fun to use and navigating the settings is easy. i absolutely LOVE the google drive connectivity, it makes work so much easier. all in all, highly recommend this ereader. my only issue is that crumbs can get stuck in the lip (but the lip also gives it that book feel) and a good blow with canned air clears it out. ... show more

  • Great for Hebrew readers as well!
Color: Black
Fantastic eBook, blows Amazon Kindle of any kind out the water! Its been over a year and still feels like new. Read about ~10 books. Love the color option for the book's cover. The ecosystem is much more open and allowing than Kindle. Supports Hebrew as well, did a little trick with the firmware to make it work natively. ... show more

  • Great hardware, software could use some improvement.
Color: Black
Great device, the notebook software could use some improvement. It just feels inconsistent. Particularly the advanced notebook. Nothing I think can't be solved. Just more robust software. Its usable. Just with some significant limitations and a few annoyances. The hardware is good. The design is solid. The screen responsive. It feels good to write on with the stylus. The colors are a bit muted feeling pastel like but that's true of all e-ink color devices so not knocking it just pointing it out. I'm glad it has physical buttons. Battery life is better than I expected another, plus. The only thing I'd want beyond this is a 13 inch version for my ttrpg pdfs and the like. ... show more

  • Absolutely wonderful
Color: Black
Pros: Super simple to setup. When I say setup in including overdrive (if you don’t know it’s a way to check out library book virtually. I don’t have a physical card just an online card) Online book portals like project Gutenberg are a breeze. It uses google drive or drop box to sync. No more downloading to computer and then moving over Page turn buttons (yay) and they flip if you are left or right handed. And the buttons are snappy and responsive. It’s an ereader of course the color isn’t on the same level for a lot of electronics but for the purpose it serves it’s perfectly suitable. I LOVE I didn’t have to pay a premium price to remove ads. battery life is pretty good if you don’t have WiFi turned on. If you like to pay the subscription it’s 7.99 a month for ebooks and 9.99 for ebook and audio book. And I did a free month and the selection is pretty stellar. I think the thing I like the most is the integrity of the company not wanting to create highway robbery with prices and features. Cons I like the idea of the journaling and notes but I feel like the stylus is a bit expensive. Granted I have an iPad Pro but the kobo is obviously smaller and easier for simple lists. I’ve been told there are aftermarket stylus but I have not looked. The cases available have no way to store the stylus. I’m not a fan of the natural light option. I use it I just have the auto feature turned off. My opinion: I am honestly relieved to be moved off of the kindle platform. I hav no complaints at all. ... show more
