Good morning…where can purchase a kobo libra. I’ve been seeing some bad reviews on Amazon vendors.

I went to Indigo to check the speed on the colour Kobo and I thought it was really slow but I don't think this will stop me from buying it 😂

Great Video. I have a Kindle paperwhite, Scribe, Nook & Kobo. I bought the Kobo bcuz, I thought I could transfer my Barnes & Noble books to it. That was a total disappointment. I have THOUSANDS of books in both Kindle and Nook ecosystem’s. Yes, the Kobo is very well made. I like it but, I don’t “Love it” and have yet to read or finish a book on it. 🥴 I’m working thru my commitment issues🤣 I notice I reach for my Scribe & my Paperwhite the most. Now I’m considering ordering the BigMe to have all my ebooks on one e-ink device.

I got the kobo libra colour last month after i heard about the coloursoft (sorry I am British) and was hoping the kindle would of been on par with the Kobo..... Down side is mu library has just pulled ebooks from their system so i have a library card which I can't use now. I was heavy in the kindle system but I am slowly coming aqay from there but I still love my older paperwhite though
@ravenclawreads31775 күн бұрын
Thanks for watching! Why did the library pull the card? Was there any explanation? Yes, I think if I had started with Kobo for all of my books, I would only use a kobo but since I started with Amazon, I’m sucked in!

I think if you like to annotate a lot you should get the kobo (although is my understanding that kobo annotations can't be exported?), or if you really like buttons. I am used to not using buttons when I read, just tapping the screen. So the kindle wins for me. ( Today it occurred to me, the reason why I have never turned off the kindle by mistake with that weird power button placement is that I use a case, maybe that helped me 😅)
@ravenclawreads31775 күн бұрын
Thanks for watching! Yeah I’m not big on annotating. I falsely told myself that I would annotate with the scribe and the kobo but it’s not happening. However, the integration of the kobo stylus is top notch.
@zmasterar5 күн бұрын
The stylus attaches on the side opposite of the buttons 😊 Btw, I'm a huge Percy Jackson fan, glad you have it in both devices! Lol
@ravenclawreads31775 күн бұрын
Thanks for watching! I also enjoy Percy Jackson-obviously lol. Yeah the way I show it magnetized in the video is the only way which is on the flat surface next to the buttons. I don’t love it there which is how I lost it lol.

@ravenclawreads31775 күн бұрын
Hey sis! Not as good as the new paperwhite. It also really depends on how high your brightness is. Reading a book will take down 6-10% where on the paperwhite it goes down 2% (the new paperwhite)

Excellent review, I love your content. Thanks for the information, it has been very useful and clear. I have the Paperwhite 11, a Kobo Aura Limited Edition and a Boox Nova Air, but I just bought the Kobo Libra Colour, which I love and I'm waiting for the Kindle Colorsoft. I think that in the end my favourites will always be Kindle and Kobo for their integrations with their Libraries service. Android wReaders are definitely not my thing.
@ravenclawreads31779 күн бұрын
Thanks for watching and enjoying my content! I appreciate you! Yes, Kobo and Kindle are top notch. I think you'll notice that the Colorsoft will be a bit faster than the Paperwhite 11. I think the Kobo is so good but I'm not in that ecosystem so it's always secondary to me on comparison to the kindle.

Great review. I think I’ve convinced myself to get a colorsoft for my birthday in a couple of weeks. I choose my books from my kindle app on my iPad because I can see the covers in color. It just helps them not all look alike to me. Also, my kindle is from 2016 and I’ve never upgraded. I think it’s time and this one has features I love.

I like my colorsoft just fine. I switched from a Kindle Oasis, which I really like, but I was tired of its size and weight due to my small and arthritic hands. My only complaint, other than no page-turning buttons, is that I keep forgetting that the power button is on the bottom of the device, and I keep looking for it on the top!
