About the Sage, I'm quite inclined to get one but I'm very reticent about the battery life.

Besides the discussion on the main thread, I'd like to have a real follow up on the battery life as experienced by the people o actually have one through the time coming.

My benchmark with full charges (with the Glo, Clara and currently a Libra H20) is
Manga - 20-40 hours
Books - 40-80 hours

Not really intersted in longevity with audiobooks or notetaking myself but it may be relevant for others that come across this thread.

If the target above is not met, I'm simply not getting a sage

Thank you all!
Battery life depends on the wifi and frontlight settings, among other things. What should those be?

Still, as much as I can tell, my Sage gets nowhere near 40 hours of battery life. That's with wifi off, frontlight at level 8 and the full refresh set to every page.
