The top one is the 2019 Nook Glowlight Plus. It has a 7.8" screen, page turn buttons and a color changing front light. It's waterproof, has Bluetooth and a headphone jack and 8GB of storage.

The bottom one is the 2015 Nook Glowlight Plus. It's got a 6" screen, flush screen and is waterproof. It has 4GB of storage.

I have the bottom one and like it a lot. I think the top one is a very nice bit of hardware. I just don't want that large a screen.
It would have been confusing if they had used a different name for the second Glowlight Plus.

Why?

And do you mean embed or to actually violate copyright?

Using the YouTube feature of the forum to embed the video in the message. Because it means the video can be played without having to open another tab or move the focus of the current tab away from MR.

There, you could have done that yourself in your reply. E.g. can you please embed it it next time like this:

I know I could have done it and I have done it before. But then the person who posted the link instead of embedding the video won't learn.

It is a two way street. Embedding versus linking makes no difference to most, otherwise embedding would be a forum rule and requirement. If you request something as preference then maybe the other person will consider it as a courtesy to you. It is up to you how you word it. Usually it works better to receive courtesy by offering some up.

I tried embedding it. I got a playback error. So I just posted the link.

I'll try again and see if it works.... Nope



Must be doing something wrong?

It is a shame that both Nook and Kobo walked away from the 6 inch glossy ereader. Since the PW4 is glossy and sells well and is well reviewed I'm at a loss as to how it is not popular on the other platforms.

More choice is better. It seems like people are always split 50-50 on the matte vs. glossy debate.

Kobo did not walk away from the 6" Reader. They have the Nia and the Clara HD. And why does it have to be glossy?

Yeah, I got the new one with bigger screen. It'll stay at home, and the relative waterproofness is an upgrade if I want to go read by the pool. I'll use the Voyage on the go, as it fits in my pocket.
