E-Reader for Perth Users
Kobo has overdrive support (Libby) and works with the WA libraries service :). I have a Kobo Clara Colour and I think it's great. It's $269 at JB. Just be aware that there can be longish wait times for renting an ebook if it's popular (they often only have a licence to rent out a few copies at a tim

Need an E-Reader but not break the bank
You’re Canadian? Kobo is in Toronto. Just a note. But more importantly, the devices are repairable and well built, plus the policies are pretty user-friendly. (Price matching, returns, downloadable for backup, etc.) I’d only avoid Kobo if you routinely switch between devices (phones/ereaders/tablets

How to transition to an eReader
Highly recommend a Kobo of some kind. I transitioned to ereader only many years ago when I needed to have books take up less room in my house. I have a Kobo Libra Color after having a Kindle for many years, but I'd do your own research on which Kobo might be best for you. The Kobo Clara B+W is the m

I have a confession…..
I’ve been struggling with the Colorsoft. I find I have to adjust the warmth and brightness with a frequency that’s a nuisance. The battery also drains fast. I read for the whole day after Christmas (8ish hours) and it went from fully charged to dying. In comparison to the Paperwhite, which took like

To those who haven't bought a light for their Xteink device
If you are serious enough in reading, i’d suggest investing in a kobo clara B&W for night reading and the x4 during the day anywhere. Nothing beats a frontlight of ereaders as it is not distracting even if someone sleeps with you in bed

Should I get Kobo or Kindle?
It depends on what you read and how tbh. I have both and use them equally as much. I have a Kobo Clara Colour and a Kindle PWS. Kobo Pros: Libby/overdrive (what I use this device mostly for) ease of adjusting screen light stats on the device color screen for when I need it the size is pristine for f

Leaving Kindle, advice for new e-reader
Why ask ChatGPT about it? It can’t tell you anything your own research won’t conclude. AI complaint aside, I personally have a Kobo Libra Colour and I love it. I picked it because it has buttons, a good amount of storage, and a good size screen. I use it for manga and ebooks. It’s easy to sideload c

KOBO VS KINDLE
I’ve had multiple Kindles, a Pocketbook Era, and just recently bought a Kobo Clara BW. The Clara is far and away the best one I’ve had. It is the fastest and most responsive. It would be my recommendation if you plan on side loading books and managing your library with Calibre. If you just want to b

XT V5.1.6 Is Live + Shipping Update + A Few Community Notes
Hey question. Xteink nano is ereader? Or just a display? I really love x4 and have already read 2500+ chapters of web novels in 3 months now. It has even replaced my kobo clara currently. So looking forward to nano. If it doesn't have the kaleido 3 dimming, definitely will try to get one.

Amazon to end support for older Kindles, prompting user outcry
I went from a Kindle Oasis and Paperwhite to a Kobo Libra Colour, and I love it. The color isn't anything amazing, but I really enjoy reading on it and it's big enough that I can read comics (though I do sometimes have to zoom in). i think the text on the Kobo Clara Colour would be too small for com
