The Kobo's touch screen never seems quite as receptive to me as the Kindle's (double page turns or not registering a touch) but no I meant that the screen seems a little yellow & dark compared to the likes of the Kobo Aura HD & Kindle Paperwhite (and obviously even more so with the more recent H2O). Also there were faint scratches visible along the top part of the screen and my biggest gripe was that there seemed to be a dark line along the top. I confess to being a lover of the best possible screen so I might be a bit picky though.
I don't recall the battery life being a particular issue, and often wondered if it was people who maybe had poorly formatted books on their Aura that was causing the battery to drain quickly?
Now that you've bought one I hope you are happy with it though, its still a pretty nice ereader, especially for the price if you got it on sale.
