So if the paper seems to be grey on Libra Colour model, it is a downgrade of the experience for me.
I read often mangas, and there are some pages in color, so they are BW on my Libra, but i was able to read them. Colour is a great new function but I would like to test this device outside before buying... Inside, with backlight, I think the experience will be fine.
I don’t know if I will buy this Colour or waiting for a Libra Colour 2 :/

Here we come back to the distinction between colour and black and white.
If you want to read manga (black and white) and novels (black and white) outdoors, there is nothing to see or think about
: a monochrome reader is much better. If you want to read comics (colour) outdoors, in my opinion a colour e-reader looks better than a monochrome e-reader because the colours stand out against the darkness of the screen, whereas a monochrome e-reader does not give you colour even though its screen is whiter.
Indoors and with the lighting on, the situation changes a lot. The differences are minimised with black and white content and huge with colour (because monochrome e-readers only have greyscale). Here it depends on how much you use colour. I use it in my regular reading of novels to distinguish text elements and for underlining and highlighting (and also for external applications). For me personally, it pays off. If you only use it occasionally, you will have to decide whether it is worth it or not.
