    • Fantastic alternative to the dated Kindle Oasis
Size: eReader Only Color: Black
Really enjoying my Kobo Sage after putting it through its paces for the last week and a half or so. I was looking for an ergonomic alternative to the Kindle Oasis, as I think not having a USB-C port is atrociously dated, and wasn't about to put up with that. At a quick review, the Sage does everything I want it to. Fantastic screen, adjusts between blue and orange lighting automatically, it feels sturdy and stable, well-made. The buttons and grip allow for me to use and read while doing all sorts of things, and the foldable cover is wonderful for propping up and looking at while occupied with both hands. The store is perfectly serviceable, though I've just been side-loading my existing ebooks through Calibre, which is an absolute breeze. The big thing people ask about is battery life. There was a slight known issue with battery life, and I feel that it has been resolved to a very acceptable level. The overall battery capacity is a little less than desired, so I knocked a star off, but it should be wonderful for those who are simply using this as a reading device. Update the firmware, fully power cycle a couple of times, and I'm now getting several days of reading out of it, probably 3+ hours per day, before getting low. Keep bluetooth and wifi off unless needed, and you'll be fine. My understanding is that annotations and writing will significantly reduce battery life, so please keep that in mind - I would not recommend this for writing. Pros: Ergonomic and high-quality feeling Screen brightness and quality are very high The side-grip is an absolute godsend, compared to normal ereader models. I love it just like the Oasis. USB-C (yay) Minor gripes: Sometimes the screen rotation is a bit slow. I suspect the gyroscope is slightly lower quality, but it doesn't take much beyond a firmer tilt to fix, so this is a non-issue for me. The only other problem I've run into has only happened once, so I can't yet say if it's a problem or just a minor but that occurred, but the screen did stop responding once, along with the buttons, and I had to turn it off and on again to resolve. Expensive Ultimately, I'm quite happy with the purchase, and would happily buy another, assuming that this one stands the test of time. ... show more

    • I'm so very happy with my kobo sage
Size: eReader Only Color: Black
This is my first serious go at using an e reader and I researched long and hard to find the device with the features I want and need. I made the right choice. The battery life isn't as long as some others but it's not terrible and it's adequate for me. If I'm ever really away from a power source I have a nice portable battery. The other features more than make up for this small deficit. Mind you the battery life is not awful it's just not as good as a lot of e readers. I love that this device has easy connectivity to Google drive and Dropbox. I love its ability to use a kobo stylus that converts handwriting to text and I can journal and write notes. The reading itself is great, adjustable lighting and natural lighting options. Oh I can highlight text, bookmark pages, look up words in text with just a tap. I love my kobo sage! ... show more

    • Fantastic reader with a couple of flaws
Size: eReader, SleepCover & AC Adapter Bundle Color: Black
This is my first non-Kindle reader. Prior to the Sage, my most recent reader was a launch day Kindle Voyage from 2014 that's still going. I've kept my eyes open for new options in the Kindle line for a while, but nothing's really impressed me, and with the recent discontinuation of the Oasis and move to only buttonless readers, I decided it was time to explore other vendors' products. First, the good. The screen is gorgeous. It's crisp and clear, with great contrast, and has a fantastic light with a very wide range of brightness and temperature on it. It's also very responsive, with pages turning (even with a full refresh) nearly instantaneously. It's also nice to have a flush display rather than an inset one, as it means that dust and such doesn't get stuck in the corners. From my exploration so far, there's a vibrant community developing tools for customizations and integrations with Kobo readers, which allows for a lot of quality of life features, like automatically converting EPUB books to the Kobo's KEPUB format when copying them to the device, keeping the device's metadata up to date for manually-copied books, installing additional reader applications with more customizability, etc. Even just having EPUB as a native format is nice, since that's what nearly everybody (other than Amazon) uses. The OK is the buttons. They're decent. They'd be better if they were wider, and if the edge of the reader curved downward instead of upward. But they work just fine. Also, the official case can be kind of iffy with flipping pages when you open it. The bad is the battery life. This doesn't impact me too much personally since I don't mind charging it every day, but the battery life on this is dramatically worse than any other e-ink reader I've ever heard of. It's very possible to drain it in a day of reading even with the wifi, Bluetooth, and light all turned off completely. My understanding is that this is an anomaly in the Kobo line (which I was aware of going in), and that the other Kobo readers are more in line with typical reader battery life, but that's a huge drawback here. Overall, I'm quite happy with it. The worst I can say about it is that I wish the page turn buttons were a little different, and it really needs some work on the battery in a future revision. Aside from those things, it's a pretty nice reader that's fast, responsive, and highly customizable. ... show more

    • I wish I had bought a Kobo sooner
Size: eReader, SleepCover & Stylus Bundle Color: Green
I have been a die hard Kindle fan since they were introduced. I have had several different versions and given many for gifts. After the disaster that was the recent update I went looking elsewhere. The Sage is amazing. It has page turn buttons which I love and the ComfortLight Pro with blue light control is so much better than the Warm Light on my Oasis. It has a bigger screen and the text is much crisper and easy to read. It is all around a much better e-reader than any of the Kindles I have had. The only con I have found is buying the Sage cover with the package- I found it cumbersome to use and it doesn't have access to the power button. I purchased a third party cover that is much better for a lower price. My only other regret is that I didn't look in to the Kobo readers a long time ago- I am enjoying my new Sage and am so pleased to be reading on it now. ... show more
