Announcement from Italian site – translated via Google. (Basically just supposition.)
Quote:
Kobo Clara HD will have 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi n, a 1500 mAh battery (like Aura HD and H2O), and a ceramic antenna. Difficult to understand the dimensions of his panel; from the nomenclature, and from the battery capacity, it should be a 6 inches and not a 6.8 or 7.8, but we have no certainties.
In 2017, these days, Kobo announced the new edition of Aura H2O, almost a year after its big hit: 7.8-inch Aura One - still the best device for large-format digital reading. The company has accustomed us to innovations (impermeability, adjustable light temperature, wire screen - all technologies introduced before the Amazon Kindle rivals) and has acquired the Tolino ecosystem a few months ago.
Kobo Clara HD will have a different screen than usual? At the last CES 2018 we saw something interesting at the E-Ink stand. Maybe it will be that famous 5-inch (Kobo Pika) that has been spoken for years? Or the "Clara" in the name will be the Spanish of our "clear"? Fortunately we should not remain in doubt for a long time.

I guess we just have to wait an see. Does anyone know what the reference to "our clear" is referring to? (
EDIT: Never mind. I see the Latin meaning of "clara" is
bright or
clear.)
