I don't think Kobo hides the fact that the Vox will be charged every day. Kobo states that the Vox will get 7 hours with the wifi off. So I was pleasantly surprised when my tablet usually does fine on between 12 - 13 between charges.

Now, I don't use it continually throughout this time. But I keep the wifi on and I pick it up every few minutes/hours to browse or read. In my opinion, this is an excellent battery life considering what Kobo had me prepared for. If I do something a little different, like watch video, the battery drains pretty quickly. I also have to make sure I don't leave the Kobo app open or it won't go to sleep and it dies, but otherwise, the battery has been treating me very well.

Most days I use my Vox throughout the day as I need it and then after reading at night but before going to sleep I power down and plug in for the night. Easy-peasy.
