And here's the review where my claim about Kobo's outrageous margins came from https://youtu.be/P-PWy-KaF2g?t=194 As said, I don't own a Kobo, but based on this review, if I bought one and found the inbuilt app to be an obstacle like it seems to be, I'd install another reading app.
This does not mean I hate Kobo. For me it's good to know that I can make the software likeable when needed (and from reviews I have gathered it's needed). I would buy it mainly for the hardware. In the OP's comparison, the Tolino has better hardware. |
Take a look at that video at 3:46. You will see the settings. If you look at the third slider labeled Margins:, you will see that they are set to give large margins. The idea (as I guess) is to simulate similar margins to a Kindle. If the slider was over to the left, the margins would be less than the Kindle.
