The screen colour on my Aura is even but there is a slight dark patch about 1 cm from the edges. This is not an issue for me as this is within the margins of the book. I can't compare the contrast with the Aura HD but I note that the font weight and font sharpness can be adjusted in the font settings (go to Font Face, Advanced). I know if this will not affects actual contrast of the screen but I am sure it would affect the apparent contrast. Stephen |

![]() I was indeed changing the weight and sharpness of the font to have something less tiring for my eyes, but then it was kind of bulky when the light was off. I must sound picky but that was really how I felt. I believe that a trouble free Aura is an amazing device. I also like the Aura HD very very much and since I can't have both for now I'll use the latter. Have a good time reading on your new e-reader ![]() |

I have one of the new Kobo Aura batch, and it's terrific. No scratches, no pinpricks of light, solid build quality. Wonderful device.

As much as I love my Aura I do have pin pricks and I only bought it in November from WHSmith so I guess you only get the 'new stock' if the retailer has sold all it's original stock.

Don't get me wrong, if I hadn't already have an Aura HD I would be all over the Aura

Had a look at the Aura in a shop the other day. It's very neat indeed, so light and nice to hold. But I'm completely hooked on the larger screen of the HD. I can't really imagine ever going back to 6''.
