With a kobo you can read for weeks before charging. I was worried when I heard reports of 30-40% faster battery drain with the Ares. Though this was supposed to be fixed with the power save features in the 8.1 update. Drat....

Do you have no sockets at home that you have to worry about?

And the 7.8" screens dying... you say its a screen type issue, so definitely a known hardware problem... nothing has fixed this? it' a take your chances deal? (they could fault any time?)

These errors have only recently appeared and been noticed - why should anything have changed?
You don't know the causes either.
Do the math: the diagonal is 7.8 inches - so the width is diagonal / 5 * 3 and the height is diagonal / 5 * 4.
