I'm not sure of the point of the post. The subject seemed to be asking for help, but, you already have the Aura ONE. So????

But, to answer the subject: No.

I do have an Aura ONE, and it is a good device. And until the Forma came out, I would have said it was an excellent device. For a while, it was my main reader and I loved it. And my wife loved it even more. But, it had some big issues:
  • The touch is badly calibrated
  • The screen colours can be badly mixed. This can depend on brightness and exactly what colour you set it to.

And @Almamida said, it is very likely that the battery in a good state. At one time, mine could do over 15 hours of reading on one charge (and I remember one day on vacation that I pretty much did that). I haven't checked it properly recently, but, I know it is significantly less than that.
