If battery is number one for you, get Forma or Libra 2. I have the Sage and am perfectly happy with it. I'm not frustrated by what I know is lesser battery life. It recharges very quickly. It has a wonderful big screen with all the current Kobo bells and whistles. There are many YouTube reviews of Kobo models that may help you make your decision.

I wish I could give more data on battery life but I recharge well before the battery dies. I read at 70% brightness with wifi on and towards larger fonts which means more frequent page turns.

I also am coming from Kindle (Oasis 2). I wanted the Sage's 8 inch screen. Makes Oasis look puny and with outdated screen. Maybe compares better with latest Paperwhite.
