The new Libra may appeal more to me than the Sage. Although I think I may be forgetting that theyve raised the price of the Libra while slightly reducing the price of the Sage relative to the Forma, which would change the relative value equation between models and incline me even further to a hopefully discounted Forma.
It shouldnt be long now before we start to see some reviews, but my subjective perception from watching one of the Portugese youtube reviews is that the build quality of the Libra 2 looks better to me than the original Libra. Looked more kindle-like.
Take that with a massive grain of salt, as I wasnt looking intently, but thats about the only way the new releases could avoid being disappointments, given their similarity in specs to the previous generation theyre replacing.
I think Kobo might be in a bit of trouble having to compete against the new paperwhite. The PW5 with the bigger flush screen and warm light is going to compete against the Libra 2 at a cheaper price and eat into that segment.
