Kobo Aura One or Kobo H2O Edition 2

icedtea_gal · 10-11-2017, 05:27 PM

Hi,

I currently have a Glo and considering an upgrade. Will I see any substantial improvement in performance? My Glo works fine. However, I read a lot at night and I'm interested in the ComfortPRO light.

Which of the One or H2O should someone buy now? Is the quality control on the H2O light better than with the One?

Thanks!

Just got an H2O v2. The backlight isn't as even as it was on my previous Glo HD, although the comfort light more than makes up to it (I've used f.lux/equivalent for years on all my other devices)

I tried the original H20 and the Kobo Aura One (KAO). I kept the KAO for the following reasons:

Screen Size - I liked the bigger screen
Comfort - I thought the KAO felt better in hand as it was a little less bulky than the H20
Overdrive Support - I heavily use three local libraries, and being able to skip Adobe Digital Editions was a nice time saver
