Never go wrong with Kobo!
I have been a long time user of Kobo. Have had my Kobo Aura since it came out in 2013 and loved it. Don't get me wrong as my Aura still works flawlessly. I needed an upgrade as I work full time and am I city transportation user. Having all my books in one place and on me all the time, also having something that the rain can't harm as I change buses. Kobo Clara just seemed like a better resolution. I was disappointed that it didn't have an expandable memory but at least it's more storage from the Aura. The speed is much nicer I will admit, although I don't expect an e-reader to be as fast as a tablet or phone which I find people tend to expect when they purchase these.I highly recommend moving to an e-reader for those avid readers. I own over 840 books at the moment. If I had all those in physical copies I would need an entire room just to store them. Instead they all take up less space than 1 book and I'm not forced to give any away to make room for more. I love my books!*THESE ARE NOT MEANT TO OPERATE LIKE A TABLET OR PHONE SO STOP THE INCESSANT, ANNOYING COMPLAINTS!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING E-READER
Reviewed in Canada on June 3, 2023

The media could not be loaded.
 I absolutely love my kobo. I love reading on it. Somehow, I read books faster on my kobo than with physical books. I'm not sure why but I like it! I like that I can custom the text, margins, spacing, etc.

With the warm light, I can read late at night without opening any light. My eyes don't get tired while reading it.

A function that I LOVE is the dictionary. If I highlight a word I can have a definition and a translation. It helps to read in english since it's my second language. I also like that I can bring my kobo anywhere because it's compact and lightweight.

I loved it so much that I bought one to a friend. So if you're on the fence, BUY IT. It's amazing.

The only downside is that sometimes the screen is not really responsive. I have to tap twice or tap on tiny icons to access something. It can also be slow at times. But in my opinion it's worth it since it's an amazing way to read.

Brought this kobo to take with me on vacation. It’s compact, easy to use, and holds a charge for
several days. The best thing is that it’s waterproof so you can take it everywhere. Also with kobos you can borrow books from the library. Overall it’s a great investment for avid readers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Small, light, gets the job done without fuss.
Reviewed in Canada on January 31, 2023

The good:
- Easy to access library books out of the box with a Wifi connection. Libby/Overdrive is pre-installed and just required me to sign in. (Libby and Overdrive are the same thing.)
- Settings are good - if you don’t like seeing the book cover of the book you are reading when you put it to sleep or power off, you can turn that off in privacy settings.
- Dark mode is a nice feature, but regular mode is easy on the eyes too.
- Quick access to my existing Kobo library.

Minor cons:
- Screen response time is a bit slow, but as I’m not usually typing rather than just reading, it’s not the end of the world.
- I didn’t like that it showed the book cover of the last book I had open all the time when the power was off, but I found you can change that in the settings.

*** Update: seems there is a lot of confusion over Libby and Overdrive: they are the same thing. Libby is the name of Overdrive’s iOS and Android app, Overdrive is the name of the actual book borrowing service that Libby connects to. On your Kobo, the app is still called Overdrive and works exactly like Libby. A lot of Canadian libraries have discontinued the separate Overdrive iOS/Android app and only support Libby now. This does not affect the Kobo Overdrive app. It only means on a phone or tablet you use Libby to connect to Overdrive’s catalogue.

From libbyapp.com:
“Note: Although the OverDrive app is being discontinued in 2023, Kobo devices with built-in OverDrive functionality won't be affected. You can continue borrowing and reading OverDrive ebooks on these devices as usual.”

I'm very satisfied with this Kobo e-reader. I can use it to read e-books from my local library in Canada, which is convenient. I can also easily upload my own documents. It feels good in hand, and the display screen is excellent. I haven't encountered any issues during use.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good!
Reviewed in Canada on April 16, 2024
Style: TouchscreenVerified Purchase
It's a nice little e-reader, not too heavy and the back lighting is great. In retrospect, I would have preferred a page turning button as the bottom corner page turning function is a bit glitchy. If you don't touch it just exactly right, it's trying to bring up the dictionary or highlighting etc. I don't know why they would put these functions right in the same area as you are unlikely to use them as frequently as the page turn. You can also swipe the pages, which is a bit more efficient. It also has a strange function where if you tap it a certain way, it try's to change the font size. This is hardly necessary as there's a function for that at the top of the page. It's battery life is not quite as good as my previous non-lit reader, but I'm sure the light takes up some power.

It holds lots of books and the organization is fairly efficient. I'm quite satisfied with it for the most part. Hopefully it lasts for a long time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great right out of the box
Reviewed in Canada on August 2, 2023
Style: TouchscreenVerified Purchase
This e-reader came charged and ready to use - its small, lightweight, and can easily be held in one hand. It connected quickly to the wifi and was able to sync with my overdrive account right away. At night the candlelight backlight at the lowest setting is bright but not hard on the eyes. Sharp screen with lots of adjustability so i dont need my glasses to read at night. Overall good value for money. Just a note that other external reviews of the reader suggest turning wifi off if you need battery life extended. Personally I only use wifi to upload books so I don't keep it on all the time. Very happy with this upgrade to my previous Kobo Aura.

5.0 out of 5 stars so far so good - connects to Libby/Library books through overdrive
Reviewed in Canada on March 1, 2023
Style: TouchscreenVerified Purchase
SUCCESS - I can connect this device to my Libby/Overdrive account with my local library. It takes some time to sync and you need to re add all of your current books you are reading in libby. I searched them in overdrive then selected read and they showed up in "my books" - I am SO pleased because some of these reviews say it does not connect but It DOES. I am in Canada and was worried but it works. This is the main reason I chose a kobo over kindle.

It is a little slow with searching titles (why I put 4/5 stars) and some lagging with the pixels but I think that is normal with an ereader. It is bearable and I am happy with this purchase for my first e-book. It suits my needs so far.

The size is mini, easy to throw in a purse or sweater pocket. I love that it is so small. If I prefer a larger screen then that would be the only reason I would return unless it is super slow. I will update in a couple of months. Happy with the purchase so far.

Reviewed in Canada on February 11, 2024

So I already owned this kobo. I ended up loving it so much I got one for my daughter and brother who are both readers as well. It’s so convenient to just sync it to my local library and read books for free. It works well. Just don’t drop any water on it. Once I was reading in the bath and just a few drops got on it and the pages started flipping on their own. I’ve never gotten it wet again and it’s never happened again.

Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2024

I actually like it a lot. I personally bought this because I’ve always struggled with reading and have a few learning disabilities which usually makes it more aggravating than fun because I have to go over the same paragraph multiple times to understand it. But this makes life so much easier. I read 100+ pages yesterday on it which is huge for me because usually I only read like 10-20 pages before I wanna throw the book across the room. It has a feature where you can tap the words you don’t understand and it will define them for you. It has a progress page that shows you how many hours you’ve read/how many books/pages per minute you’ve read. It’s water proof so I read in the bath lol. It has a natural light setting so it doesn’t harm your eyes. It looks just like paper and not a phone screen. Its battery life is long lasting. The book I bought downloaded in literally like 5 seconds. I love that I can just quickly grab it and click the on button and it’s ready to go. There’s highlights and note features so you can annotate it if you’d like. I haven’t tried the audio feature yet but definitely will in the future. It’s small and light and easy to carry around or fit in a small bag/purse. I should have gotten this years ago tbh

Je conseille néanmoins l'achat d'une protection pour garder longtemps la liseuse.

Es un muy buen lector, añadir libros es muy fácil es conectar al ordenador y ponerte los libros que hayas descargado
Recomiendo que descarguen en formato EPUB desde cualquier página que sea de su confianza
Si estás dado de alta con la biblioteca de tu ciudad puedes usar Ebiblio que es lo de préstamo de libros y básicamente sería lo mismo pero en formato digital para tu Kobo
Sin más que decir yo lo recomendaría 100% es un lector digital muy bueno cumple con su función y es económico a largo plazo

5.0 out of 5 stars It's an excellent ereader.
Reviewed in India on March 20, 2024
Style: TouchscreenVerified Purchase
The media could not be loaded.
 I have always been an avid book reader. But I had always used phone as a mode of reading. Finally, I decided to purchase an ereader just to get bigger reading area and less distractions which I normally get from phone.
I decided on Kobo because sideloading of ebooks in various formats is super easy. Also it's exactly the right size. I have pretty small hands but even I can handle it pretty well.

Plus points:
1. It's really light-weight.
2. No distraction.
3. Easy sideloading of various formats of ebooks possible.
4. Simple UI.
5. Battery life is decent. It lasts me more than a week or so if I read 5 hours daily.
6. It's amazing in bright sunlight. The texts are crisp and highly visible.
7. It's perfectly pocket-sized. So I would say it's travel-friendly (please use a case tho peeps).

'Somewhat' Negative points-
1. It's plastic overall and thus slippery. Cover/case is a must need.
2. Ghosting is a problem but that's the case with every other eink reader. But it's not a huge deal. It ultimately gives the feeling of paper where you can see both side's printed text.
3. Browsing internet is just bad. So basically you can only think of simple tasks like pushing a button and praying you don't have to scroll a webpage, because that experience is not made for an ereader.
4. I tried listening to an audiobook but kobo is moody most times and does not connect with bluetooth earphones easily. I would not use kobo for audiobook functionality.
5. Touch sensing is slow as you can see in the video.

Negatives aren't much of a hassle for me and thankfully I'm not regretting switching from phone (which is faster and has better audiobook functionality) to an ereader as I wanted something only to read. So yeah, go for it!
