Great product
Easy downloading library books from anywhere.
And easy return. Will easily pay for itself as I’m an avid library user. Will be great for any form of travel - even on the bike!
Love the colour aspect of reading.
Love it!
I have swapped my Kindle for the Kobo reader and it's great! Love to be able to borrow library books. Also great features to adjust the brightness to your liking. Battery seems to last a long time, mine is at about 50% after a month of regular use. If you switch from Kindle it takes a bit to get used to not being able to hold it at the bottom (not enough frame), but instead there is a broad rim on one side which can be used left or right hsnded
So far so good..........
Have changed from Kindle to Kobo. Still learning to navigate the new device - all seems pretty straight forward. I enjoy the bigger screen and better graphics. I was spending a reasonable amount annually on purchasing on-line eBooks from Amazon. The Kobo's access to the free Auckland Library Libby App is a great resource, so actually some cost saving there. The Kobo email library seems more limited that Kindle at this stage
