How good is it, can it be compared to the Aura HD, all I see is that the screen is the same size and so is the rest of it, which would be a relief not having to buy new covers. I need to have the largest screen possibly because of eye problems. Which Kobo reader would you guys recommend?
The Aura H2O screen is slightly better than the HD mostly due to the increased contrast ratio. On a sadder note, the size is slightly different which would likely make a new case a necessity (the Aura H2O is about 3mm taller, 1mm wider and 2mm thinner).
