Is there any advantage or disadvantage of the Clara colour over what I'm currently using, software, actual physical reader, faster, slower or.....?
I think I've read the display isn't as crisp but that's the only thing I've really heard which would be a deal breaker for me.
Advantage: colour.
Disadvantages: A much darker screen, background ‘graininess’ and poorer contrast, something that is more noticeable when the e-reader’s lighting is off and outdoors, and less noticeable indoors, at night and with the e-reader’s lighting on.

Therefore, if you’re not interested in colour, there’s no point in switching to a Clara Colour. But if you’re interested in colour for whatever reason, the Clara BW (or your current Clara HD) won’t offer it. It all depends on what you want.

Personally, I’m looking to buy a 6” colour e-reader (I have other colour e-readers in different sizes), and the Kobo Clara Colour is my top choice.
