Not sure about Colour devices though (which have MediaTek too) due to their color pixels overhead.

I'm not that convinced that Mediatek procesor will be enough, since Kobos with the same FreeScale / NXP i.MX6 SoloLite had worse battery life than Kindles with same SoC and same size & generation eInk panel.
As I mentioned in similar topic Kobo Libra 2's battery life is horribly bad when compared to Kindle PW5 / 11th gen Paperwhite.
Like 3 to 4 times less text read per single battery charge
Although I would sure like to read about someone's experience with Clara BW from someone who has an older generation Kobo to compare it to.
If that model's battery life doesn't suck then maaaaybe there is point in hoping for a hypothetical Libra BW in the future and for that model to have ok battery life thanks to Mediatek SoC and newer motherboard / newer "Kobo mark" hardware generation.
