I've bought my KA1 last year shortly before the Forma was released as a replacement to another unit that I accidentally broke.

Honestly, I usually feel some sort of need to replace my other devices such as laptops or phone when a new one comes out, but that has definitely not happened with the Aura One. I think it still holds up pretty well. Battery life is fine (with 30 to 60 minutes a day of reading it lasts something around 4 weeks), the screen resolution is crisp and page turns are pretty smooth when reading kepubs.

If you can get a good deal on one, I think it's still worth it.
