Device: Elipsa, Sage, Libra 2
With a few books in I started dipping into a few books.

First, a big disappointment: the plastic at the back of the Libra is hard and slippery, not at all like the slightly rubbery back of the Forma, so much less comfortable to hold. I was thinking perhaps a skin (not the first time I had a slippery Kobo), but then the recessed on/off button would make it complicated, and it is long and expensive to import to France, just for a bit of plastic, preferably invisible.

Second, the screen is beautiful and the book pages look very well, crisper than my Forma I don't know why.

I haven't had a white reader for years. The tint of the device compared to the screen changes according to outside light and the levels of screen light and comfort light. I will play with it at night too.

Third, I like the "recessed screen", and the fact that what is a black border all around on the screen in the Forma becomes a continuation of the plastic border with an angle up from the buttons, so there is no risk of my thumb slipping onto the screen.
