  • My absolute dream E-reader
Color: White
I absolutely flipping love this! I’ve been mainly a physical reader for my entire life and until a couple years ago when I tried my first e reader (kin*le). I still mainly read physical books but did enjoy having a reader. The main thing holding me back from enjoying e reading more was the fact that I love to annotate my books and although I could technically do it on my kin*file it was a pain and a half. This kobo with the stylus is everything! Perfection! The color is also a total bonus and I love having the page turning buttons! It’s light weight, easy to set up and use & worth every penny! The screen size is also perfect! Big enough while still being super easy to take on the go. I also notice less of the normal e reader “lag” with this. I’m rambling but to sum it up this is the absolute best e reader ever, no questions, hands down. ... show more

  • Everything you've heard about it being better than the Paperwhite? It is!
Color: Black
I have been a Paperwhite lover literally since they came out, so I don't say this lightly. The Libra Color is a glorious ereader. - It's responsive (for e-ink, of course—make sure you're not expecting OLED). - It's incredibly customizable (font, font size, line spacing, margin spacing, and more). Dark mode; light mode. - A big thing: it does NOT push the store on you. The focus is books, reading; when you turn it on, you're confronted with YOUR LIBRARY, not things an algorithm wants you to buy. - It connects with Overdrive! You can borrow DIRECTLY FROM YOUR LIBRARY! - THE KOBO IS REPAIRABLE. - It connects with Google Drive and Dropbox, making epub transfer simple. - It's VERY light and easy to hold, which, thanks to arthritis, is something I need. I was initially worried the shape might be strange to adapt to, but guess what? It's actually easier to hold! Adapting to this shape was as seamless as moving to a place without Daylight Savings Time: believe me, you don't miss it even a little. Yes, of course it's not AS bright as an OLED screen, but neither was the Paperwhite. I find it very readable, very clear, and oh, oh, oh, those buttons? I didn't know how much I would love having physical buttons until I did. Transferring books from my Kindle library onto it turns out to be simple, too (YouTube has tons of tutorials). This is the one, fellow readers. I can't recommend it enough. ... show more

  • Rating is for Seller & NOT for Product
Color: White
The product itself (Libra Colour ereader) is fabulous. Great design, cleanest ereader interface on market and has fantastic options to get books from many places. Instead the one star rating is for Seller's return/refund policies if you have to use them. Purchaser has to return insured on their own nickel and then you get hit with a 20% restocking fee. So order from BlueProton at your own risk and EXPENSE! ... show more

  • Great Ereader!
Color: White
The ereader I was using before this was an old hand-me down kindle.. It finally died so I decided to get this to treat myself :) This device is leagues a head of my previous one! I mainly read mangas and romance novels and I was honestly looking into getting a kindle oasis, but I decided I liked the customizability of the os much more on this device. The screen is super crisp and I really like the fact it has a screen warmth setting that changes throughout the day. The buttons are very responsive and work great as well. The backlight works great when I want to read at night, even at the 3% brightness it is still plenty bright and readable. The biggest selling point of this ereader was the colored screen and the annotation capabilities. While I think both work fine I was a little disappointed in the colored screen. I've seen some picture online of the screen showing book covers and they all make the screen look very vibrant and nice.. I'm sure it's the same for everyone but looking at the colors in person they do appear a little washed out. Luckily for me that wasn't to big of a let down since at the end of the day this is still an e-ink display. I purchased a 3rd party stylus for this since the kobo one was a little expensive. It worked fine and did what its supposed to. I realized after having it for a few days that it was unnecessary for me because I don't find myself reaching to write something while I'm reading. If anything I would just highlight quotes from the books, but you don't need the stylus to use the highlighting feature. There is also a notebook section that allows you to just take notes or do journalling. This wasn't something I tried extensively, but it functioned fine. The device has a bunch of built in. templates and presets you could use straight out the box. Importing books to this is also super super easy and honestly doesn't take that long. You can upload epubs or pdfs directly to your kobo wirelessly through dropbox, google drive, or an online website (all this can be done with just your phone). It also has a overdrive section built into the UI if you borrow ebooks from the library (I used to on my kindle, but you would have to take extra steps and it wasn't as streamlined). Also importing books from a laptop as simple as just drag and drop! Unfortunately the storage isn't expandable like previous models that used a micro sd card, so if you mainly read manga or comics on this you'll fun out of storage kinda quickly. Only giving this 4 stars because of the storage limitations, but other than that I have no complaints and so far everything works great! ... show more
