Hello
I have been using my Kobo Aura HD for years now. And I have considered to get a new reader a couple of times during the years.
I was looking at the Kobo Forma but, but there is someone selling his 1 month old like new Likebook Mars at a good price in the contry where I live. The Kobo forma including a protective cover, will cost me around twice the price of the Likebook.
My concerns with the Likebook is mostly battery life. On my Aura, it feels like the battery lasts forever. I can bring it on vacation without thinking about the battery, because there is always plenty.
Have anyone of you that changed from a Kobo/Kindle to a Lifebook Android device, ever had battery issues?
The reason for upgrading, is because i would like to have the nightlight.
Also I'm hoping that the new device I will be getting, will be more responsive, especially when turning pages.
Do you think, the Likebook will be a good upgrade?
