The Glo was Kobo's first frontlit ereader. It had a 6" 1024 x 768 213 DPI eInk Pearl screen.

The original Aura was also a 6" device with a 1024 x768 213 DPI eInk Pearl screen. It used a capacitive touch screen and so had a flat front without the inset screen seen on Kobo ereaders other than the Aura One.

Both of them had external uSD card slots with the same processor, internal storage and RAM. The Aura lacked the internal uSD card of the Glo which meant if it was bricked, it generally stayed bricked though there were reports that if the internal storage was not bootable, it would book off the external uSD card.
