- Today I got a new KOBO Libra H2O and I'm really disappointed.
Right at the beginning, I had to restart the reader 5x because the touch screen stopped responding.
- Product quality is also very poor, for example, compared to Kobo Clara HD, which I would say that it has a slightly better display.
- Kobo Clara HD has a lighter background. Kobo Libra H2O has a gray base color too dark.
- "Kobo Clara HD" has even better backlight, more cold. When I enter the Comfortlight at 100%, "Kobo Clara HD" is more orange than "Kobo Libra H2O", which is only yellow (as a virgin piss / i'm not sure if they write it like that :-))

* Kobo Clara HD has a 100% pretty cool image when set to white, Libra shows a bizarre yellowish color. The yellow diodes are OFF.
- After enlarging the font (5x zoom), Kobo Clara HD has a clearer font, it may make a brighter background, but Libra is certainly not better in this direction.

- Overall, I must say I'm disappointed. I was expecting a better screen, better contrast and normal backlight. Taking into account the Kobo Libra H2O price, the previous model Kobo H2O v2 has a sharper font and significantly better backlight and contrast.
Unfortunately I have to say for myself, do not expect a better screen like Kobo Clara HD. In the previous model H2O (2017) I personally think that was significantly better screen and even backlight, sharpness of the font.
Kobo Libra H2O for its price is really very average.
