If you compare them side by side, the Libra 2 with black on white text is slightly sharper than the Libra Colour (I set the front light to give about the same white level). OTOH, I prefer my Sage for it's larger screen—these old eyes prefer larger font sizes. On yet another hand, my two granddaughters prefer the Clara Colour to a Clara HD since their books are image based.

Oddly, here several of the Chapters/Indigo/Coles stores had stock on Libra 2s for a couple of months after the Libra Colour was released. There was no rush to purchase them.
