I love my Kobo! I am new to ereaders in general but did so much research I couldn’t do any more. I read Reddit post after Reddit post… I watch so many unboxings! I made the right choice! Libby borrowing is so easy and the kobo library has a plenty. The hardware is nearly perfect….buttons are fabulous, screen quality day or night is wonderful, battery life is so great (I’ve had it almost a month and I’ve only had to charge it once but my usage might be different from yours I’ve read a three books a couple of comics). Only complaint is the screen is a bit recessed from the enclosure so I’m a bit nervous .. I’ve already gotten some dog hair and other small debris caught in the little gap of this weird anatomy between the screen and the body/housing. I love to read outside so I may need to invest in a case/screen protector.

Purchased for my Mother - and she loves it. Simple controls. Lightweight reader. Charge lasts really long. It will hold all my mother’s favourite authors and then some.

Had the Libra for a year and generally like it better than the Kindle. However, after a few months, it started crashing randomly. Customer service said they would replace it, however weeks later, I am still waiting for my replacement. So now I leave for vacation without my Kobo. It takes them a week after they receive my Kobo to log it in, and then who knows how long to send the replacement. Don't they have some unhand to ship right away once they receive it. And why does it take a week for them to verify that my Kobo was in the package. Would never buy another one and may switch back to Kindle.

I love the display. Bought a pen for the MS surface because it has two buttons. I love it for manga, and pdf book scans!

R.e. Kobo Libra Colour 7" screen- happy with purchase. Good design for one handed reading, touchscreen or buttons for page turn, good contrast on display, many ways to configure font for easy reading, responsive touchscreen menu, lightweight for the screen size (same weight as my 6" screen Kindle Paperwhite). Easy to connect to public library ebook collections in Overdrive.

The set up was super easy and the battery life is great! Plus it's so portable that I can read anywhere now. If you're looking for an e-reader outside of the Amazon space, this is a great option. Plus you can support your local library by checking ebooks out directly from the LibraColour through Overdrive!

Love my Kobo so much, just disappointed it cracked already being in my backpack even with the kobo case. It was delivered faster than expected, the OS is user friendly, and I find lots of books in the store, on Kobo Plus, or with my connected Overdrive library card. It’s my first e-reader and I feel pretty spoiled with it although I have nothing to compare it to

I own 2 other e-readers, but the Libra Colour is my favorite for its versatility. It's not the best device to read on compared to black & white e-readers, but I love the note-taking features and the buttons.

-great ebook selection: I’ve never had trouble locating a book I want; they also have frequent deals which is a plus -it’s so easy to switch between devices (kobo and iPhone app): I usually buy on the app on my phone and it syncs so quickly to my kobo and vice versa -I’m able to upload fanfiction and other non-kobo books via Google Drive on the kobo -I got my kobo a month ago and I’ve only charged it once! Battery life is amazing! I took so long deciding which ereader I wanted to commit to and I’m so glad I chose this one! I’m reading so much more!
