The lighting is more even, the two-finger light swipe (compared to an untweaked Glo) is useful, and I find the capacitive touch performs a little better, with less training of the user required to touch 'carefully'. (It doesn't freeze here, so no need for capacitive gloves.) I've no opinion on case material because mine's always in a cover.
ETA: I've also discovered another benefit of the capacitive touch: a cat's tail doesn't set it off. (Paws still do, though.)

I think the Aura should have had a smaller version of the AuraHD's 265dpi screen, say 1280x960 pixels, that would have made it a distinct step forward from the Glo. As it is it seems more of a step sideways.

Can't disagree with you there! That's quite likely their next step with the Aura 6", I would have thought.
