By the way, I have reported that I feel that I read faster on the KA1 than on the KPW1.

It seems to be 'officially' confirmed by both readers. I've been reading the same book on both of them. I read on the KPW1 in public transport, and on the KA1 at home (if I have time to read), until I get a cover for the KA1. Thus, I'm leapfrogging chapters, from one reader to the other.

When I now set them to the same chapter, these are the results:

At this point, the KPW1 says Time to Read, 6 hours, 12 minutes. (6.25 hours).
The Kobo Aura ONE says Time to Read, 5.2 hours.

I know the Kindle is spot on, as long as it isn't hit with the "From now on, I'll show you HALF the time you ACTUALLY need"-bug. Assuming that the KA1 is correct as well, that would mean that I'm reading 17% faster on the KA1.

Spoiler:

Setting the Kindle's 6.25 at 100%, would mean 5.2 hours on the KA1 is 100/6.25*5.2 = 83.2%, so that would be about 17% faster.
