These tests are done with the ereader's frontlight turned off.

I've attached a cutdown version of the epub.

Worth FAR MORE than any video!
Thanks.

Or clicks to boost ad revenue?

My Aura One can't last forever* (over eight years old now) and I strongly prefer bigger than 7". However, I'm also not going to plump for a device that's a few years old when I've got a serviceable alternative.

*But my Glo** and Mini are still working, so maybe it will at that.

**Bringing it around to the OP!

Ans updated Sage with really good battery life would do well. I agree with no color.

Do you have access to a Libra 2 to compare to the Clara BW?

The Clara BW is back in stock at Kobo, but with a USD $10 price increase. At least it isn't discontinued. That would be unwise.

I got it at the earlier price because I had told them to let me know when it was available, which they did a few days ago. I wonder if this is a widely followed rule ("If the customer asked for it while it was out of stock, sell it to them at the old price.")

[lmarie]

I just realized that the $10 price jump for the Clara BW may be due to the Canadian tariffs.

Which are NOT in effect yet.

I thought I saw mention that the change was due to a sale price ending.
