Kobo Libra Colour | eReader | 7” Glare-Free Colour E Ink Kaleido™ 3 Display | Dark Mode Option | Audiobooks | Waterproof | Black

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I’m so glad I bought the Kobo Libra Color—it’s a product that’s on par, if not better, than the Kindle. One feature I absolutely love is the page-turn buttons; they add such a satisfying, tactile experience. It’s also incredibly lightweight and easy to handle. The color display is another highlight—it really enhances my reading experience, making it feel more like holding a real book. The battery life is excellent, and I find myself using this e-reader more than my Kindle now. Adjusting the screen brightness is also much more intuitive compared to the Kindle. Overall, in my opinion, this is the superior option. I’m so glad there’s a great alternative to the Amazon brand. The ironic part? The Kobo Libra Color is actually priced cheaper on Amazon than on the Kobo site!

Best reader I’ve ever owned. Bright, light, and long battery. Simple software, but feature rich. Let’s you connect your library card. So cool! It doesn’t lock you in to any environment at all. Really, really good.

Better than my Amazon device, any day of the week. It's not locked down, and it has buttons! It has more features, it's easier to borrow from my library, I can cloud upload anything I want via Google. Build quality feels good. No creaking sounds, no "ghosting" on the screen, the larger than average screen, and it turns pages faster than I could with a book

absolutely love this ereader. I have the B&W clara 2, and love that one as well. the Libra Colour feels more alive when i'm reading. the screen hasn't given me any issues so far, except once or twice that "gradient" has shown up; it isn't as big of a deal as i thought it would be. it is minor and hardly noticeable. for brightness, i have had zero issues. it has the lovely warm setting too and both are bright. i can read at night or during the day just fine (i am younger and have great vision, but my mom can also read just fine and she is postmenopausal w/glasses). The ereader has survived a couple knocks off the furniture from my cats, being lugged around in backpacks around town, in cars, and on planes. no scratches or anything. the buttons are wonderfully fun to use and navigating the settings is easy. i absolutely LOVE the google drive connectivity, it makes work so much easier. all in all, highly recommend this ereader. my only issue is that crumbs can get stuck in the lip (but the lip also gives it that book feel) and a good blow with canned air clears it out.

Been using Kobo devices since the Aura One Limited Edition however this is my first 7 inch device from them. Overall, I think this is a fairly solid ereader and will make some people happy and others less so. Also a disclaimer, I did have to return and replace the ereader as the first one I received had a pinhole defect in the screen. Something to keep an eye out for. Let's start with the compromises: - The screen is inherently darker as the color layer of the Kaleido 3 tech sits on top of the regular B/W layer. You are more likely to use the front light more often and usually at higher levels than you might be used to in most indoor settings. - The color layer also adds a certain grain or screen door effect to the overall image that some might find off-putting, especially those who are coming from Carta screen devices. - That grain can also cause a moiré effect in some B/W content, primarily manga from what I've personally experienced, where you will see rainbow banding. It will happen at varying levels depending on the book, either from barely-existent to technicolor dreamcoat. There is an option in the reader settings that *might* reduce the effect but it achieves this by blurring the image and it won't totally get rid of it. Not sure it's worth the trade-off still. Now the good: - The SoC is pretty snappy, page turns are pretty quick. Impressive even with full color pages. - The page turn buttons are satisfyingly clicky. Libra 2 owners are probably used to this but my last device being the Kobo Sage which has terrible, mushy buttons, this is a godsend. - Large battery. This probably being a side effect of Kobo expecting users to use the frontlight more. It clocks in at 2050mAh. A large increase over the Sage's piddly 1200mAh. - Libby support by way of Overdrive. This has always been a killer feature for me. Unfortunately this is dependent on where you live and if your local library supports it. - A Libra with stock Google Drive and Dropbox support! - Pretty light and comfortable to hold in different orientations. - Repairability. Kobo has partnered with iFixit to provide replacement parts for sale and repair guides so hopefully I can get some decent mileage out of this ereader. Unfortunately I'm not really an annotator and as such, don't have the stylus so I can't comment on those features exactly, but being able to have some color choice on the highlighter is still a useful feature. Same with the audio book function, I tend to listen to them on my phone since it's more convenient.

The Kobo is the best device for reading e-books in my opinion. Its strengths include a wide variety of font choices, allowing me to customize text for optimal comfort and readability. The device’s wide edge design makes it easy and comfortable to hold (especially compare to Kindle e-reader or iPad mini). It has an impressive battery life, letting me read books without frequent recharging. However, there are some limitations. It does not support e-books from Kindle or Hoopla, and compatibility with Libby can be inconsistent. Pros: • Extensive font customization options • Comfortable wide-edge design for easy handling • Long-lasting battery life Cons: • Incompatible with Kindle and Hoopla e-books • Occasional issues with Libby e-book support

La taille de l'écran est parfaite, ni trop grande ni trop petite, et l'appareil est très confortable à tenir grâce à son design ergonomique. La navigation est fluide, et les menus sont intuitifs et faciles à utiliser. De plus, la possibilité de régler la luminosité et la température de couleur de l'écran permet une lecture agréable à tout moment de la journée. L'autonomie de la batterie est excellente, même avec l'affichage couleur activé, et le stockage est plus que suffisant pour une vaste bibliothèque. En résumé, la Kobo Libra Color est une liseuse haut de gamme qui enrichit l'expérience de lecture avec des couleurs vives et un confort d'utilisation exceptionnel. Je la recommande vivement à tous les passionnés de lecture numérique !

رااائع حجمه و القراءة فيه ممتعه. شريته بسبب اني ابغى كيندل اوياسس ويكون ملون

Envío rápido y correcto. Bien embalado. Lo he probado poco (lo acabo de recibir) pero funciona correctamente. La pantalla responde correctamente y se nota un producto bien acabado. Aún no he probado el Bluetooth ni los audiolibros (no estoy interesado en esas opciones ). La WiFi correcta (también en la banda de los 5GHz). Nada más conectar busca actualizaciones. Parece que la interfaz está mejorada respecto a modelos anteriores (Kobo Libra 2 es el último que tengo). Los colores se ven bien, hay que tener en cuenta que no es una tablet ni un PC, no tienen ese brillo ni son los mismos tipos de pantalla. No creo que se puedan realizar comparaciones objetivas. No tienen nada que ver. Resumiendo, estoy contento con la compra realizada.

echt een geweldige e-reader. De grootte is voor mij perfect. De knopjes maken het erg makkelijk om een pagina om te slaan en de covers van de boeken in kleuren zien is erg fijn. zeker aan te raden

Mooie reader . Heel content
