I upgraded from my Glo HD to the Aura One that arrived yesterday directly from Kobo. I'm loving the A1 but I've been noticing that it doesn't always register a page turn when I swipe the screen. It's not all the time just say 1 out of 10 page turns suddenly the A1 just sits there. I can swipe several times with my thumb and nothing happens. If I tap it works every time but I find the tap zones unhelpful when I switch to my left hand.

I've tried several books, some downloaded from Kobo, others from Calibre both kepub and epub. They all exhibit this behavior. It'll be fine for a while and then suddenly it stops turning pages via swipe. I have to tap the next page zone and then after that I'm good for another stretch before it does it again.

I'm on firmware version 4.4.9349 which it updated to while syncing. I've tried doing a factory reset and turning the wifi off to stay on 4.1.7729 but it does the same thing.

Is this normal for the model?
