I have a few non fiction books with colored photo or images. I searched them in my library and I downloaded them into the PB633 Color immediately. For that books the PB color is better.

But the vast majority of my non fiction books have no images or have them in black and white.

And I found a colored comics science fiction series I like so I am reading it on the PB. I buy it from Kobo, but also if the Kobo Aura One has a larger screen I prefer to read it on the PB color.

While my first ereder remains the Kobo Aura One I use the PB Color mainly for:

1. the books with colored images
2. as portable ereder because is lighter and smaller than my PW3
3. audiobooks
4. comics

The 3 is something I had not foreseen, after buying the PB Color the ophthalmologist advised me to rest my eyes, so I started listening to the audio books (You don't buy the first color ereder on the market for audiobooks ), even if I should do it more.

And the 4 is an attempt: I like science fiction, I also like comics but so far I had read them on the ereader only occasionally, to try how they were on the Kobo Aura One.
