Simply don't worry about this. Kobo is a small manufacturer compared to
some others. Surprisingly, the end product is good enough and cheap enough to get my attention and effort to buy it and ship it to the other half of the planet. I never regretted, except I stopped to think of it as a kobo device, but my device. Support is for one who wants to buy a book or ten. On the list of 100, first 99 are "buy a book or ten". Complaints are of the rest and mostly solved by forum posters. I accept that. One might not. If you ask me, reviews on the product page are not for real. Better look for bad reviews, since you will learn more. You will find most minuses as nothing especial. What counts? Good screen, good memory, sd card adapter. Go-to is fine if possible. I think you should read this forums and not count on stars. Best regards. |

Personally, I'm always going to be a bit suspicious about bookstore book reviews, simply because the purpose of the site is to sell books which makes it difficult for them to be unbiased with regards to review moderation.
For me, Goodreads.com is the place to go for reviews, and it would take a completely ridiculous amount of effort for Kobo to turn out the kind of functionality of that site. I'd much rather that the Kobo people spent their time getting the reader perfect, and leave the collecting of reviews to somebody else. |
