The newest Kobo under discussion - listed under various names! - has such a beautiful screen. Whenever I'm tempted to pick up my Oreo One, I think about the beauty of the Kobo Libra 2's screen. Both, for me, feel comfortable to hold. But that screen on the Libra 2 is soooooo smooth and clear. Ummmm!

If you are referring to the Aura One, then yes I do, and I have no intention of replacing it anytime soon.
From what I have read here the current Kobo replacements (Libra 2 and Sage) both have their issues, whereas my simple Aura One just works.
The screens on the newer models may well be superior, but my Aura never crashes (possibly because I never update the firmware). I always side-load books so there is never a reason to connect it to the Kobo app, just connect to my PC and drag the books across.
Even if I have to end up charging it every other day I can't see myself wanting to replace it. I just want a simple ereader without all the bells-and-whistles of page turn buttons, rotating screens etc., and that does not seem to be available from Kobo any more.
