Upgrade from kobo Aura one
Currently have an Aura one, thinking of giving it to my daughter and getting a Libra H2O. Is that a logical upgrade?

Actually, no. A Kobo Forma is the model to get to upgrade your KA1.

The Libra has a 7" screen and the Forma has an 8" plastic backed screen. So the Forma is the model to upgrade to from your KA1.

Where did the Libra go on sale? I know it was on sale during Black Friday and Cyber Monday but I don't see it on sale now.

The Libra H2O is a very good device. The advantages of the Forma over the Libra H2O are:
  • Larger screen size.
  • Plastic backplane so less likely to break and a lot lighter. Which makes the Forma only slightly heavier.
  • Dropbox support.

The advantages of the Libra H2O:
  • Price.
  • Smaller for easier transport.

While the screen size suggests going from the Aura ONE to the Forma, the price is high enough to make anyone consider the alternatives. And the Libra H2O is a good alternative.
