Where did you hear that? If you don't sit on it or tread on it or throw it into a backpack unprotected, it should last you a lot longer. This household still has a Kobo Touch and Glo, each bought as soon as they were released in Australia, in regular use. By an 11-year old boy at that. They have, of course, always been kept in decent cases.

The several-generations-ago Kobo Wifi is being bricked by a firmware update, but Kobo is replacing those devices with Kobo Touches for nothing.
