Libra H2O - Questions

I am still pretty new to e-readers, having only fairly recently (2 years actually, time flies) bought my first Kindle Paperwhite 4, which unfortunately I hate reading from unless using fairly bright background light, I blame this mainly on the flush glass? covered screen, as my partner has a Paperwhite 3 which is magnitudes better in dim light and also has a nicer warm backlight vs the cold and bluish PW4.

I’ve been thinking about upgrading to a Kobo but have a few questions I would love some of you to help answer for me ;
  • Does the Kobo Libra H20 have a flush glass layer on top like the PW4? # No it doesn't, so probably more readable.
  • Of all the Kobo models, is the Libre H20 considered one of the more readable with and without the light enabled?
  • I use Calibre to manage my books, so can the Kobo sync to that wirelessly (I’m tired of hunting for micro usb cables). # Apparently not
  • Does the Libre H20 have a decent web browser (TLS1.3 / web sockets) ? # Possibly the same old 'experimental' one as the Kindle?!
  • Wide range of margin options? # Yes

Many thanks to anyone who can help me!
