I have them both, the aura HD first and recently the aura.
I would say: don't hesitate and keep the aura HD.
Yes, the aura is lighter but in the long run the higher weight of the HD really doesn't bother me. When I go away I take the HD, so much advantage in size and weight the aura doesn't have.
And I think there are really a couple of pro's for the aura HD:
- higher resolution and bigger screen
- somewhat greater contrast and whiteness (HD is just marginally nicer)
- The aura is too sensitive in touch because of it's flat and capacitive screen
The only extra nice thing for the aura is the ability to change lighting with two finger swiping.
I am sure that owners of the aura will be very satisfied and they should be but when you have an aura HD don't go changing it for a smaller aura.
Just my opinion.
