I had a Kobo Aura for a couple of weeks before receiving my Kobo Glo HD and my initial impressions are very positive for the Glo HD.
The higher resolution means I can read at a smaller point size and as a result, have fewer page turns. Graphic novels that used to be cut off on the Aura are now displayed in all their full page glory.
The contrast improvement is quite noticeable to my eye. I found that the Aura's screen was almost middle to slightly dark grey and that I harder time reading text against it, especially at night.
The Glo light was good on both devices, with my Aura having a more bluish tint. I find that the Glo HD comfort light is slightly blue at 30% or less and more white the brighter you go. But not a big deal in my books. I mean hey, I'm reading books in pitch black without waking anyone - that. is. amazing.
I'm glad I returned my Aura and got the Glo HD for only $10 more (after a discount) in Canada.
