Well, the price was right. As I said before, after that tumble I’m suddenly prioritizing cheap & disposable over a smaller form factor. I’m sure it’ll be fine, assuming it works. If this is a Kobo Aura Edition 2 with a backlight, I got a better deal than I realized.
Yep, that's the Aura 2. It's a step up from the Aura I was talking about because it's got a newer generation screen. The design is less fancy and I think it's a bit bigger, but it's a nice reader.

By the way, all the Auras have lighted screens.

The original Aura had a fancier build (flush screen. elegant design), SD card, compact form factor.

The Aura 2 was considered a real disappointment on release. The SD card was gone, the resolution wasn't increased and the chassis was more boring.

But a $25 Aura 2 is better than a $50-60 Aura.
