Both have a 6.8" screen and you can get more text on screen then a 950 since the 950 is just a taller 6" screen and the 6.8" screen is wider as well. Plus, the 6.8" screen is higher resolution so you get clearer sharper text.
Thanks I will look in to it. Do you think the build quality of kobo h2o or onyx boox would match up to the 950's?
