The Clara is not “entry level” the Nia is. I’ve tried most of Kobo’s current offering and the Clara is simply the best for me due to ergonomics. It hardly a step down in specs and features, just a different shape and size. The Libra would cause me wrist pain first because I tend to read laying on my side, second because while the design is tried and true, they completely messed up the cantilever point and too much weight is too far out from the grip point. If you have long fingers this should not be an issue

I have a Kobo Clara 2e that I've just bought almost a year ago and I love it more than I thought I would. I just bought it to not have to lug books around and I ended up loving the experience of reading on an e-reader. And I've chosen this model because it was the cheapest with "confort light" technology, which I have always on even during the day. I always go back and forth with the decision of upgrading to a libra (which I do now have a really great excuse to do so, with the colour model, specially now that it has kobo pen support). But the price, size and simplicity of the clara model it's just too hard to beat. Also, something that no1 talks about: the clara 2e has a "Sketch Pad" section, under the More > Beta Highlights menu, I suppose the clara colour has one as well. It doesn't support pen, but you can write/doodle stuff with your fingers (I suppose a capacitive pen will work too). So there's that ;) Thanks for the amazing review.

Thanks. I bought the Clara 2E a few weeks ago and for now I don't see the need to upgrade to a colour version. Most of people just read books on a e-reader. Btw you can side-load music/audio books on those readers (unofficially) but with a very minimal interface. At least on the previous versions. You still use BT of course. Don't forget the indispensable "calibre" software for all your unprotected e-books. A master of all trades.

Also, if I highlight in different colors within a book is it going to categorize them for me? For example am I able to see all of my pink color highlights within a book and then see all of my blue colored highlights separately? Hopefully this makes sense, I organize my characters and events using different colors.

4:45 You've got it backwards, the problem isn't wanting to have the light down to 0%(though it IS better on the battery), the problem is that outside the frontlight can't keep up with the ambient light even at 100%. "Just bump it up a bit, don't worry about it" is great advice for when you're reading before bed, but because of how weak the frontlights are you can barely notice a difference no matter how high it goes. That's typically fine, because it looks like white paper anyway. The Kobo Colour line however actually NEEDS that extra brightness due to being basically a dark grey, and in some environments appears to need the front light on at full blast just to almost mimic BW ereaders withou the light on at all.

When I first saw this, I was tempted as well like many diehard Kobo eReader fan. I prefer Kobo eReader over Kindle and had many different ones over the years, both Kobo and Kindle. Kobo Glo, Aura HD, Elipsa 2E, and for Kindle, DX, Oasis. But hands down, I always go back to Kobo. Some Kobos were made in Japan, and Tawiwan. Those, I rarely had issues and they feel just right. But, recently, I bought the Kobo Clara 2E and Elipsa 2E. Though they are both different class of eReader (Elipsa 2E writable), Clara 2E is made in Taiwan, whereas Elipsa 2E is made in China. Latter just don't feel right, and battery life is terrible with even very low backlight setting. Clara 2E goes over a month with 1-2 hours per day reading at 11-14% backlighting. Now with this new Clara Color. Unfortunately, it's made in China. Until they are made anywhere but China, I am not buying a Kobo, hate to say it like that. Edit: All of Kindle ereaders were and is made in China, which is probably why I no longer own any.

You can choose how often you want your ereader to refresh the screen. If you set it to refresh with every page turn then it will do exactly that. You can choose from different options, you can even turn off screen refresh completely.

It's too small to read cartoons, too slow for apps and web browsing - and regular books aren't in color. Until they have the speed of a regular screen and full colors, having color just doesn't matter.

I got carried away by the emotion of the color and bought this Kobo once it was released: serius mistake. This is my first e-reader and I couldn't be more disappointed. Syncing is horrible, keeping progress between the app and the reader doesn't exist unless you BUY BOOKS FROOM HIS STORE. Sideload books becomes useless because ¡the cloud doesn't exist on Kobo devices! I can't understand how everyone says this is better than a Kindle, in case it gets damaged or stolen, everything will be lost. I'm waiting the prime day on Amazon for buy a Kindle. Meanwhile this Kobo is going to rest in the drawer 😪

Is it just me or is the text on the Clara more difficult on the eyes to read compared to Libra? I.e is the formatting of the text different? The text on the Libra looks a little more spaced out than on the CLara.

I thought this was a valuable review. I don’t think this is the ereader for me even though I prize the colour!! My reasons: 1. kobo clara, according to Faiz, does not support text annotations. (Please correct me if I’m wrong.) 2. The kobo annotations only live on the kobo if they’re non-kobo-origin books. They can’t sync with online books on a kobo app. This is unlike the kindle experience. So if the kobo is ever reset, all annotations are gone.

@@brownwallet942 preordered a week ago. Was excited to watch his Libra colour video. Clara colour offers very little difference that he couldn’t cover and combine in the other video. Watch clicks. YT is getting inundated with all these same videos showing the same stuff. The rest of us that are actually comparing and deciding between other options/models still don’t have a comprehensive video that compares even its predecessor, the Libra 2.

@@RedshirtX Cool cool! It's exciting to see any news about the Color. This video is intended for those who want to get this as their first e-book reader, but if there's something for those who are past that stage, it clarified one thing: the screen is definitely brighter than the Bigme color device that the other reviewer was comparing his black and white readers to. You know, that video that discourages people from getting colored e-inks! Can't wait to make my own comparisons when mine arrives

@@brownwallet942 Agreed and excited to get mine. I think like with many who have pre-ordered, we are looking for confirmation that we made the right decision vs picking an older, yet reliable tech like the Libra 2. Ultimately for myself, I was ok with a slightly dimmer screen, but I just could not stand a slower experience. Knowing this one has a faster processor was the deciding factor for me. Cheers and thanks for reading and respecting my comments.
