Libra 2 is only Carta 1200.
For me, anything that is not Carta 1300 is a non-starter.
I'd still get a Libra 2 if I needed to replace my Libra 2. The screen is good.

If Kobo was to make a new 7" BW Reader, I'm sure they'd use Carat 1300.

Look at the Kindle PW4. While it used the same screen as the PW3, it was considerably worse because of the way Amazon did the layering to make it flush.
