Description

The Kobo Aura is an e-reader that you can take everywhere to read all of your books without having to carry a heavy and full bag. This is because of the compact size and weight of only 180 grams. This allows you to read your favorite book for hours without getting tired arms from holding the e-reader. Thanks to the anti-glare screen, there are no reflections from the screen, so you can read while the sun is shining. In addition, the screen brightness can be adjusted, so you can continue reading in the evening. The 4GB of storage lets you store about 3,000 books on the Kobo Aura.

My mom is happy with it and so am I!!

  • Works great, my mom installed it herself
  • That makes my mother quiet
  • She forgot to cook

I gave this as a present to my mother, she was very happy with it and has been quiet for a few days. Benefit; she installed it herself, so it's great ease of use! Small drawback; she was so into her new book and then forgot to cook.

Good E-reader that does what I expect it to

  • Light, narrow and compact
  • The screen is pleasant to read
  • Does what it should do

I haven't found any downsides so far. Loading sometimes takes a little longer than usual, but I don't find that so disturbing that it's really a downside. It never bothered me when I turned the pages of a book.
I am very satisfied with my purchase! It is easy to use, easy to travel with and I enjoy reading on it. I can read well all day without the backlight on, only when I'm in bed I turn it on at 1%. I would buy it again!
