It doesn't make sense to me why the Sage/Forma/Oasis should be over twice as expensive as the Paperwhite, but I'm sure there's a reason. The price increase for an additional inch of screen size has got to be one of the most expensive in the history of consumer displays.

After having the Sage (which is going back) and the Forma I agree about 8inch e-readers, that extra inch is worth it, however I am also happy to use 7inch readers round the house and 6inch readers for my handbag.
I got my Forma for £200. And imo that’s the price it should have been from the start, and the price the Sage should have been. Both are too expensive at Kobos prices. I’ve bought the new Libra 2 as that is a far more realistic price, considering Kobo are more expensive than Amazon anyway.
The covers are also a ridiculous price. I managed to get the Red Libra 2 case for £25, and if a third party case had been available I would have got that instead.
