If you took a bunch of average people (not enthusiasts like ourselves) and stuck them in a room with a Sage, Forma, and Aura One, my suspicion is that you would get an even split between people who liked each device. Some people, like myself, would go for the newer e-ink screen of the Sage, but the differences between devices is small (even though they're magnified in our minds). It's what makes the Aura One a good used deal if you're chained to 8 inch Kobo readers like I am.

We're probably looking at 2024 before the next 8 inch Kobo. That's how I know it's likely I'm going to end up with a Sage eventually.
