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

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
@ravenclawreads3177
@ravenclawreads3177 5 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 😅)
@ravenclawreads3177
@ravenclawreads3177 5 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.

@ravenclawreads3177
@ravenclawreads3177 5 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.

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!
