Simple, light, sharp, perfect!
Amazing! The e reader, easy to make your own library connecting it to your computer. Readability is sharp and good. The portability and appearance great! Simple and light! Compatible with my Mac and epubs, you can convert them native using Calibre.

Nice e-reader!
I have used Kindle readers for quite some time, and decided to try something different since the reviews were so good, and I'm not disappointed. This reader is far snappier than any of the Kindle's I've had over the years. Compared to my current Kindle (2020 Sage Paperwhite) this is miles ahead - fast page turns, super-fast downloads, much less cluttered interface, good battery life, and better power button location. Clearly, a 4-year-old Kindle (even a Paperwhite) is not a fair comparison, but given the unattractive color options for the currently available Paperwhite (the new models have just been released - metalic finish likely to scratch easily) I thought the time was right to experiment, and I have no regrets what-so-ever. I like the light-weight and the much lower cost (129 USD v.s. 200 USD for a Paperwhite) This weighs significantly less than my 2020 Paperwhite and has the same display size. The only thing this lacks is the inability to access Amazon ebooks, but given that almost all publishers set their selling prices, you can get the same books from Kobo at the same prices (except those published by Amazon) No issues with library connection, no issues with side-loading books from my library (expect for those I bought from Amazon), and a much cleaner user interface. If you have a massive Amazon ebook library, this may not be the best option for you. Some publishers do specify no DRM, which allows you to read on whatever device you prefer rather than being locked into the seller's system) but if you borrow from the library regularly or obtain ebooks from a variety to sellers and not just Amazon, this is worth a try. It's like a standard Kindle with much better features at the same price. I'm considering replacing my 2020 Paperwhite with a standard Kindle, since those at least come in a color that I would not be embarrassed to use in public, but only because the speed and weight of this reader are so much better that it makes me sad to go back to the old Paperwhite to read books that are locked into Amazon's system.

Great choice for ereader
Great portable ereader. If you want the classic paper look, set it to 0 brightness (though that only works in the daytime). Great storage capacity, nice clean UI and not cluttered whatsoever. If you cant find the books you want on the Kobo store, you can always import them yourself by using a computer (which I love). It can be a little clunky/slow reacting, but it seems all ereaders are like that. Screen is big enough so it doesn't feel cramped, but portable enough to be convenient. I'm personally very happy with it.

Absolutely love the Clara BW!
Came to this e-reader from a Nook Simple Touch due to B&N pulling store access. What a great upgrade, and I am enjoying the improvements 10 years brought to e-ink tech. This is a fairly simple, plain reader - just what I was looking for. After a revamp and refresh of my eBook library with Calibre software, my library is even more organized and accessible than it was on my Simple Touch. And being able to read without an external book light illuminating the whole room is a nice feature. Battery life has been stellar so far, with the caveat that I am not reading it every day. Kobo is a great option for those of us who do not want to be tied into the Kindle or Nook spheres.

Great way to read library books
It's quite easy to set up the Kobo reader to access your library overdrive account, and then you can take your library loans with you in a small, easily readable format. Unless I missed something, you still need a separate device (your desktop computer, iPhone or whatever - I use the Libby app) to actually check out the library book after your hold clears, but then after you sync on your Kobo the book is there for you to read it. The Kobo screen is clear and easy to read, though it takes a little time to get used to a screen that's probably smaller than what you're used to now.

6 inch warm light ereader
Fantastic ereader, has the warm light function that the kindle 6 inch is so pathetically lacking in 2026. Interface and UI is much cleaner than kindle, no ads on lock screen or home screen, third party books can be easily added with a simple drag and drop after plugging into a computer. Super light, thin, battery life for days. Kobo gets my vote for best 6 inch ereader to buy right now.

Solid ereader
Lovely eReader. It has a variety of useful features to enhance your reading experience and overdrive in it. It has a warm feature option which is a must to use at night for your eyes. This is my first eReader so I'm pretty satisfied. I just dislike the fact that one of the corners has a dark spot. Not a deal breaker but it was a little annoying when I noticed it.

Amazing e-Reader!!! Well worth the cash!!
I was skeptical at first when it came to reading books off an e-reader. I love the feel of having a physical book in hand and turning pages but reading off these books is amazing. The ability to change light settings and brightness is great for reading at night. As you can tell from the video, it’s quick and responsive when it comes to turning pages or going to the menu or switching settings. The weight of the device itself is pretty light. The plastic it is constructed from feels sturdy. At first it felt and looked cheap but I’ve dropped it once from 3ft and it did not get a single scuff. It is waterproof since I’ve taken it into a pool and got zero damage. The screen itself also feels sturdy. Battery life itself has proven to last quite some time. I charge it almost every two weeks and I do heavy reading on it (3-4hrs a day). I did play with the settings a bit on separate occasions, once the battery only lasted barely a week and a half and the other time it went over 2 weeks. The device itself has never overheated and I don’t see why it should. Storage space wise. There is no way I will ever fill up 32gb worth of books. I currently have 8 books loaded up on it and they’re all 5-20mb in size, with another 7 loaded up to be transferred. When it comes to loading books onto the device, you can easily plug it into a computer via the usb-c cable it comes with. Open up the device folder and drag and drop right into it. Once you’ve safely removed the device from the computer, your device will load and it will show your new books. I haven’t bought or tried out anything from the built in store, not sure how it works but looks like you can download an app on your phone, but the books there and then they will download to your device. TLDR: it’s better than a kindle in my opinion. Spend your money on this model and sideload books by drag and drop. Where you get your ebooks is none of my business but there are places where they are free…

Maravilloso
Es mi primer lector así que dudaba un poco pero la verdad que es increíble. La tinta se ve perfecta, de verdad parece que miras un libro y no te cansa. Además el material es bueno y el tamaño es el ideal, un poco más grande que un libro de bolsillo. La respuesta es muy rápida y es muy fácil transferir o comprar libros.

Una excelente opción
A mí parecer es superior a la Kindle, se ve y se siente bien, la batería es una locura, dura hasta 2-3 semanas encendida sin problemas, definitivamente compraré la siguiente Kobo!!

Básico tal vez demasiado básico
Buscaba una opción compacta y económica que me permitiera ir en transporte, leer pdf y epubs y que se pudiera sincronizar con alguna nube (drive o dropbox), al parecer Kobo se proponía como la alternativa a Kindle (que no se puede ligar a ninguna nube y que parece que tiene problemas para leer epub) pero no fue así, o parcialmente, la opción de la nube está disponible en versiones más caras y en este modelo el pdf no se lee tan bien, es muy lento y no se puede subrayar ningún texto, ah, y los documentos que se suben los nombra y los acomoda como se le da la gana. Pero bueno, sirve para lo básico, básico, básico, no más.
