Is it something with my unit (updated the firmware OTA, have the latest version now) or do you guys have similar experience?
For Kobo with latest firmware, if you turn pages without stopping, the speed is roughly 0.4-0.6s. If you actually read the whole page for 30s before turning a page, it gets slower at 0.5-1s.

EDIT: Kobo seems much faster now if you use well-formatted books. Previously I was using a book with broken TOC which is why it felt slow.
