Aura HD Kobo Aura HD blank display

grimorie · 07-15-2022, 10:45 AM

Hi!

Sorry if this was asked before but my Kobo Aura (bought 2nd hand but I've been using it for a year) fell but it was only a few inches off the ground and suddenly there were lines and faded text.

And now all the screen does is light up but no text coming in... is the display broken now? Or is there a way to salvage it?

Thanks in advance!

It does sound like the screen is broken. It's not something that's easily fixable.

*sigh* I suspected so, thanks for answering.

If you are wanting a new 6" Kobo, you can get the Kobo Clara HD for $30 off from Kobo, Walmart, or Amazon

If you drop your devices, please get a good case at the same time.
