TLDR: I love my Libra. White light is greenish.

I've been using my white Libra & official sleepcover for almost a month now and here are the things I like and don't like so far.

I'm upgrading from Glo HD so there will be some comparison between the two.
I also used to have an Inkbook Prime HD (IPHD) which was supposedly the replacement/upgrade for my Glo hd. Unfortunately, I cracked the screen in less than a week's time. There'll be some comparison between it & the Libra as well.

LIKES:

Sunken screen
- No unwanted touches to the screen even when holding on the thin bezel side; with the IPHD my fingers were straining in holding the bezels so as not to touch the screen;
- No glare from the bezels; with the IPHD the black bezels produces glare which gives me headache

Comfortlight
- The orange light is a joy to use which is the main reason I've upgraded from the Glo HD and I don't notice any unevenness on my unit (or decide for yourself with my pics); BTW the white light is greenish compared to my Glo HD but not a deal breaker

Faster UI & latest firmware
- The UI feels faster. Also, the latest firmware now has the ability to turn off page numbers for full screen reading.

Screen size
- I find the 7" screen to be optimal. A compromise between portability and more screen space. Comics are now more readable compared to 6". Even the PDF formatted novels are also readable so I don't convert them anymore to epub.

White Frame Color
- Initially I preferred the black as white looks nice but I'm assuming might be distracting -- apparently not at all; Even when the room lights are off, all I can mostly see is the illuminated screen and the light bouncing off from the white frame is very faint. Also, the white went well with the pink cover and my vinyl stickers.


DISLIKES:

Weight & Size
- I find it heavy even without a cover; I was originally eyeing for the Pocketbook Touch HD 3 at 155grams but the prices I paid for the Libra & the cover were really tempting
- The bezel with the page turn buttons could have been made smaller, maybe reduce it by 25%

Limited storage
- 8GB feels insufficient now that I'm loading more comics. I upgraded my Glo HD's internal sd to 32GB and my late IPHD has a card slot. I don't mind losing water resistance to having an upgradable storage.

Official Sleepcover
- The fold easily got flimsy; I was only able to use the stand functionality a few times
- The faux leather layer is thin (though the hard card material inside is thick) and the corners fray easily


NEUTRAL:
Shape
- I really wanted page turn buttons but the shape needs getting used to

No dropbox integration
- The forma has it and hopefully it gets cascaded to lower models; it's not a dealbreaker but will be a welcome addition

All in all, I really love using my libra. The dislikes are something I can live with and the likes brought so much more value for me.
