  • Kobo Libra Color is Worth Your Money
Color: Black
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I’m so glad I bought the Kobo Libra Color—it’s a product that’s on par, if not better, than the Kindle. One feature I absolutely love is the page-turn buttons; they add such a satisfying, tactile experience. It’s also incredibly lightweight and easy to handle. The color display is another highlight—it really enhances my reading experience, making it feel more like holding a real book. The battery life is excellent, and I find myself using this e-reader more than my Kindle now. Adjusting the screen brightness is also much more intuitive compared to the Kindle. Overall, in my opinion, this is the superior option. I’m so glad there’s a great alternative to the Amazon brand. The ironic part? The Kobo Libra Color is actually priced cheaper on Amazon than on the Kobo site! ... show more

  • IDK What to Put Here
Color: White
EDIT: Previously, I mistakenly stated that this has no security, but it does in the form of a PIN. I've updated my review to reflect that, and bumped it up to 5 stars This is my first eReader so I have no comparison of performance compared to others. I'll list the cons first in case there are any deal-breakers for people, then they can stop reading and look for something else. Cons: -No SD/microSD slot -No NAS drive option -No headphone jack -Will get you addicted to reading Neutrals: -Looks like something from old Star Trek Pros: -Clear, readable text -Decent Colour -Readable in blinding sunlight -Super lightweight -Great battery life -Supports Google Drive, Overdrive & Dropbox -Probably won't shatter when you drop it Despite a few drawbacks, I still greatly enjoy this eReader. I don't foresee myself needing more than 32GB of storage for books, as I'm not an audio book guy (yet), and even so, I can transfer anything from my laptop to the Libra anyway. But still, I do have a NAS drive and microSD cards lying around, so being able to use those would've been a nice feature for peace of mind and feeling like I didn't overspend on tech stuff (lol). Maybe one day we'll get an OTA update that let's us use NAS drives. Now for the cool stuff! I wasn't completely sold on an eReader since I already have a tablet, but I decided to buy one anyway to see what the fuss is about, and I ultimately still love this thing. It's incredibly light and doesn't tire my hands like a tablet or a book, and being able to fit so many books onto something so small still wows me. Dang it, I just love technology! Syncing this with Google Drive just makes things even better. I've never dropped this thing but it looks a lot more durable than a glass phone, or even a tablet, and I'm confident it can survive a few drops. If you're someone who frequently drops stuff, I'd still buy a case for the aesthetic, if anything- this looks like it was designed by the same people who designed Star Trek Voyager computers. But maybe that's the case for all eReaders, no pun intended. Thanks to my allergies, I dislike going outside, but I did bother to test it in direct, blinding, sunburnable light and the brightness still makes things more than readable. If you're someone who likes to pretend they're a White Lotus character and reads on the beach with sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat, this can be a part of your prop arsenal. Personally, I like to read in bed before I go to sleep and I haven't dropped it on my face yet. As far as colour is concerned, it doesn't look as nice as my tablet or phone, but maybe that's asking too much. Apparently colour eReaders are a mindblowing new thing so it might wow you. I haven't fully converted and sub'd to their book shop, so I can't comment on the experience there; I still have my Kindle Unlimited sub still active and may also buy a Kindle to see how the experience compares. I do notice that the Kindle app on my tablet tries to sell me new books hardcore and is way more in my face than this shop's. Despite that, I might end up with two book subs since it's current_Year and everyone has 10 streaming subs anyway. Carrying around two eReaders is definitely not as physically demanding as carrying two thick books. If you have the expendable income, why not have the best of both worlds? In short, this Libra Colour is gas. I've reconnected to my nerdy childhood and I'm reading tonnes more thanks to it. Like any tablet or laptop, you should be especially wary about it being stolen on public transportation, since this has 0 password/PIN protection. But for anyone who loves reading, this is an amazing experience with ridiculous battery life compared to a phone or tablet, and won't strain your eyes. 5 Ryan Reynolds'! ... show more

What can I say, I have been struggling with reading my books for a while now. I never seem to have time and so many distractions. I ended up getting this after a lot of research. It is wonderful. The button make 'flipping' pages easy. The text is clear and looks amazing. I can put it down and go do something then pick it up right where I left off. Really glad I went with this vs the Kindle. not being tied to the amazon store and able to easily use my own Ebooks is amazing. Pros: Light weight Fast response large storage. Easy book management. cons: Note taking is a little difficult. there is a back light/yellow light that I have yet to figure out how to turn off. It seems to be a low light thing. I feel like I am back in highschool or college just consuming books. Feels good to read again ... show more

  • Great Reading, poor book management
Color: Black
I purchased primarily to use with my extensive personal collection of ebooks, for offline use. Overall satisfied, but it could use a few software improvements. This review based on experience with prior e-reader, an ancient iRiver Story HD. Pros: Screen is great, backlight very nice and very adjustable (the auto-color setting is pretty flaky though). Screen colors very acceptable for an e-ink. Refresh rate surprised me, very good. Was pretty easy loading my offline library, connected via USB, using Linux and Calibre. Size, ease of holding and turning pages are good. An inch larger would be nice, but the screen is sufficiently big and sharp enough to read most of my PDF technical books, when flipped to landscape (views a little over 1/2 page at a time). Cons: My several hundred books (epub, text and PDF) are arranged in a 2-level folder structure. My prior readier I had a folder view where I could browse by folder (/Mystery/AgathaChristie/). So far I haven't found a similar feature on this one, makes it difficult to find the books I don't know by title, or author. Logging out of the OverDrive account appears to clear history. !? Why on earth? Looses track of which books I'm reading or have read. Solution is to remain logged in. (Can turn off WiFi and use offline just fine when logged in to OverDrive, so it's not a real deal-breaker.) I have a lot of books that came from Project Gutenburg in form of plain text, then got converted to epub at some point. They open and read just fine until I get to the last page(s) of the book, where it get to the Gutenburg notices, then the reader takes a very long time to move to the next page, and sometimes crashes. ?? Almost certainly a software bug, because my other reader handled these files just fine, as does Calibre. ... show more
