I only picked the one I did because (a) there wasn't a huge choice and (b) like you, I thought it looked nice. It's coming from China, so it'll be a couple of weeks before I find out.

I've just noticed a little oddity. If I go to Settings/Energy saving and privacy on my Clara 2E, there's an option to turn auto wake/sleep on or off. Although the Mini is now running the same firmware (4.38.21908), that option isn't available on it. So I guess that it won't be possible to disable it if I find that I don't like it.
There's nothing to dislike. You close the cover and the Kobo goes to sleep. You open the cover and it wakes. No need to press the power button.
