Storage: all 32GB, except for the Era (64GB).
Connectivity: all USB-C, instead of the awkward micro-USB on the Oasis.
Battery: 1200mAH (Sage), 1500 (Libra 2), 1700 (Era), compared to 1300 on the Oasis.
Price: a quick search shows $240 for the Sage and the Era, $170 for the Libra (as opposed to about $300 for the Oasis 32GB without annoying ads).
So the Libra wins on price, the Era wins on storage, the Sage wins on screen size...

The Sage also wins on processing power (it's noticeably faster than the Libra). Kobo readers (Sage and Libra) win on Calibre integration and customization options. Pocketbooks have even poorer native reading application than Kindles do, so I wouldn't buy a Pocketbook unless I was prepared to use a third-party app (KOReader, for example). YMMV, obviously.
