Do you plan on checking out books from a library? If so, Amazon is better in the US, but Kobo is better elsewhere. You mentioned Euros, so Kobo would be better for you.

Do you know how to use Calibre? If you don't and you are planning on buying the bulk of your books from Amazon, buy a Kindle.

The Voyage to me is a nicer reader than the Paperwhite due to the flush screen, metal body and pseudo-page turn buttons. Do any of those features matter to you? If not, go for the Paperwhite.

The H20 has a bigger screen than either of the Kindles. Do you want a larger screen?

It is also waterproof. Do you read in the tub, at the pool or beach?

If the H20 is first gen (you didn't specify), it has an expandable SD card slot, so it can hold many more books.

If the H20 is second gen, you lose the SD card slot, but the reading light has a blue light filter. Do you read a lot at night?
Do you plan on checking out books from a library? - our public libraries donīt have a good selection of books for now, so I think no.

Do you know how to use Calibre? If you don't and you are planning on buying the bulk of your books from Amazon, buy a Kindle. - I donīt, but Iīm a fast learner )))

Do any of those features matter to you? If not, go for the Paperwhite. - I was thinking more from the pov of reading experience, do this features improve it or itīs more an upgrade to the experience from Paperwhite?

If the H20 is second gen, you lose the SD card slot, but the reading light has a blue light filter. Do you read a lot at night? - Itīs the second edition, as I can buy it through an offer now. No I donīt read a lot at night, nor I real a lot at the pool/beach, as I go to the pool/beach only in summer, so mostly no. The bigger screen does look good, I would enjoy a bigger screen.

How about the dictionaries on both Amazon vs Kobo? How about the notes? Could I take notes on Kobo? Cause I saw that on Amazon I can make notes, and sync them to the cloud.
