It’s also 20$ more than the Kobo Nia which aside from USB C (the Nia uses micro usb) and buttons is an identical device. The Clara HD is equal cost with the trade off being a 300dpi screen in the Clara vs buttons on the ngl4e.

It compares favorably next to the basic Kindle save that the basic kindle is 30$ cheaper feature wise the gl4e is ahead. But falls behind compared to the, granted 20$ more, kindle paperwhite. But for those 20 dollars you get 300 DPI and a 6.8 screen vs a 6 you give up buttons.

Bit of an odd placement in my opinion.
