I don't need an exact, scientific comparison to decide whether I want to buy a device or not. Other people's reviews, comparisons, photos and videos are usually enough.
I find having to have the light of the Libra Colour at 20-30% too high to have the light on in order to get the screen as bright as the Libra 2 with no light on. According to owners, the battery life is not as good as it is on the Libra 2 because of the high % the light is set to.

For me, the Libra Color will not do. If I needed to replace my Libra 2, I'd be stuck as Kobo has no BW 7" Reader.
