Aside from the screen, the internal hardware is virtually identical between the two models so there’s not much to say there. They have the same processor, the same storage space, the same amount of RAM, etc, and both are waterproof with an IPX8 rating.

...The H2O2 is the perfect size if you use it outdoors a lot, rather than as a n indoor bedside reader.
Screen size would be the main difference between the two. However, Overdrive support might also be a consideration for some. Unless things have changed, and they may have, only the KA1 device currently has Overdrive support. That could be significant for someone who would like to borrow library books on the fly instead of having to download them via a computer and then transfer them to their device.

The KA1 also happens to work very well outdoors. I don't really notice any significant difference in portability between it and my original Aura. But I'm also not attempting to stuff either into a pocket. I almost always have a backpack or shoulder bag with me that either can fit in.
