How to find out what model I have?
How to find out what model I have before I even go thru set up? The Kobo logo is at the bottom, and it looks like a Glo, it has lighting. I don't want to go thru set up yet to find out.

My Kobo Clara HD says Kobo Clara HD on the bottom near the power button.

Maybe Google some Kobo pics.

And the model number is on the end near the USB port. For the Glo it is N613. Or look at https://help.kobo.com/hc/en-us/artic...or-Kobo-tablet. That shows how to identify the devices.

That's true.
You can also go in Settings > About [...]
The About section will tell you which model is your Kobo (assuming you haven't bricked it)

Is there any reason not to go through the setup?

I have a Glo HD, and the back sides are slightly beveled and the back has little holes/indents in a gradual swirling pattern.

Do not answer this question. It's a trap!
