KoboLibra Colour White eReader with Case Bundle

Love the UX and how easy it is to use. LOVE the pen capabilities!!!

The media could not be loaded. I am an e-reader girl and I have a ton of Kindle‘s and this is the first experience I’ve had with Kobo and I am just so impressed!!I love the functionality the quality being able to see my books and color has just been so nice I love the side buttons for easy page turning, color adjustments, brightness, being able to annotate with the stylus is so cool 10 out of 10 and highly recommend

Got for my 94-year-old mom whose eyesight is starting to fade. She squints hard and has to hold her bulky book up to the light. She is an avid reader and borrows books from her local public library. I had gotten her a Kindle about 5 years ago, but having to download books from library to Amazon to Kindle device was confusing for her, so she never used it. I researched devices and found the Kobo, which directly downloads library books to the device. I was still doubtful about her ability to use it, but surprisingly she mastered it right away. Of course I set it up for her and then told her to stay out of the settings. Instead of squinting and hurting her eyes, she is now reading with ease. Device is good size. Got the B & W Clara (because she didn't need color) at same time to compare. Clara has a smaller screen and is awkward and uncomfortable to hold (you have to hold it at the bottom). Also, the clarity of the typeface is hard to read, as the screen doesn't get very bright and there is essentially no contrast. To be fair, the Libra isn't much better. And I tried every combination of light level, font style and size, sharpness of print, etc. And using color made no difference. I used to work in a darkroom, and I'm used to manipulating photos with filters and other methods to enhance them. Basically, both devices need a brighter backlight and a lot more contrast to make the type crisper. **The Kindle readers beat the Kobo ones hands down in this area!** The color on the Libra doesn't make any difference either. I got the Libra Colour because the 7" screen is a better size and you can hold it comfortably on the side. The overall design of the Libra is just much better than the Clara. But they do need to make a B & W Libra! You can jot notes (pen is extra $) and highlight with the Libra Colour, but I think most people just want a reader. So, to get the device that had more of the features that I wanted, I had to get the color version of the Libra. This is a nice combo package. Including the dedicated Kobo sleep cover is worth the extra cost. I got the green and it is actually a nice pastel shade. I'm going to attach some photos of the screen. One shows one of the "cheat sheets" that I made for my mom, showing her steps to take.I hope this review helps to explain some of the pluses and minuses of the Kobo Libra Colour. My mom loves hers and says it is the best gift I've ever given her. It's nice to get something right, once in a while. lol

I haven't used an e-reader for years so there is a bit of a learning curve, but so far I love my new e-reader with the ability to highlight in different colors, write with the pencil on the page (in color) and so much more. Just loving it!

After over a decade as a Kindle girly I decided to make the switch to Kobo to see what the hype was all about. I was drawn in by the fact that it has color (something Kindle didn’t offer at the time), has buttons (why no new Oasis Amazon?), and has a stylus.After several months of this being my primary reading device, I like it even more now than I expected to. My favorite features are Google Drive integration, direct access to Libby book checkouts, the color, and being able to annotate directly on the page like I would with a physical book.My biggest complaint is that sometimes there’s a bit more lag than I’m used to with Kindle devices. It’s not a dealbreaker for me, but it is noticeable from time to time. Writing with the stylus is not quite as nice as it is on my Kindle scribe (which I still use daily for work purposes), but it’s decent enough.Overall I’m VERY happy with this purchase and I’m not sure I’ll ever go back to kindle again.

I'm very happy with my new book reader and case! I just wish that the origami case included the pen holder!

This was a birthday gift for a love one. Cute and the size is not big. Lightweight, brightness can be adjusted to your liking.

Love this e-reader. I love that it has the page turning buttons. It's easy to use. The only thing I don't like is that they don't offer as many titles to borrow as kindle unlimited.
