Kindle Oasis or Kobo Libra

Libra. As much as I loved the Kindle Oasis, it's hard to find them now with good battery life because they aren't being made anymore.

I summon thee who use kobo

It just depends on what you're looking for. You basically have three classes of devices available to you: Kindle: generally excellent hardware for the price point, but the software is middling, at best. Long tradition of making the experience of using the device actively worse as Amazon chases reven

Why did you go with Kobo over Kindle?

I have a Kobo Libra 2, bought about two and a half years ago, and was coming from a Kindle Oasis 3. I haven't actually switched... I still use the Kindle daily, as well as of course the Kobo. Using multiple devices seems to make it easier for me to juggle books. Maybe that's just me... because Kobo

RIP Kindle Oasis - What's next?

There are a few Android eInk devices that are very similar to the 7’’ Oasis 2 and 3 in size and shape - Boox Go 7 for example, but there are others. They won’t have the battery life of good dedicated e-readers (Kindle, Kobo, PocketBook) but offer all sorts of flexibility. (And battery life isn’t as

Is anyone else getting terrible battery life on the Kobo Libra Colour?

I have it at 20% indoors, but I forget to set it to 0% outside. I just read 650 pages and it's at 47% battery - That's OK for me :) Much, much better than my old Kindle Oasis ;P

Bigme B7 Color - Excellent way to cut down social media use and spend your free time

Ohhh this looks nice. I have the same goals as you and recently got a Boox Palma. I really like it and it has def got me off my phone more, but it’s not as pleasant to read on as my old Kindle Oasis. But Oasis has the Amazon lock-in, and also is still microUSB charging. I was thinking of selling bot

Is a go color 7 worth it

I adore mine. I love reading with it, and I really enjoy it. It's like a Kindle Oasis, Colorsoft, Scribe, and Paperwhite had an eink tablet that can use apps. I have the Kindle, Audible, Libby, Bookfunnel, and other apps on it. I'm kind of obsessed with it. I can turn pages with the buttons, and I c

(EU) best epub ereader with sideloading

PocketBooks for just downloaded epubs. If you want to use the library or a local subscription service or something like Storytel as well (depending on your country and library) which requires an app, then Boox devices or inkBook (Polish) are Android-based and can do apps. Boox Go 7 and inkBooks have

Why did you go with Kobo over Kindle?

I'm a button snob. I had a Kindle Voyage for 10 years that has the button like press areas. Would have loved an Oasis, but they were too rich for me. I sideload all my books, and Amazon likes to remove sideloaded books from devices. I often would be halfway through a book to find it was gone when I

Anyone else find the Boox Go 7 a bit... square?

I just converted to the Boox Go7 monochrome as my main Ereader. The square format reminds me a lot of my old Kindle Oasis, which was my full time Ereader until the batteries started to go south. The Oasis was replaced by my old Boox Nova Air, which was the perfect format..about the screen size of a
