Thank you so much! For the review, I was actually thinking about getting mine as well and this review really helped me to make up my mind. Thank you so much!!!😅
I got a kobo a few years back (with a similar pink case) and I love it. I like that you can hold it in either hand and the screen automatically rotates so I can use buttons with my other hand if my arm gets tired. There are also achievements and little badges you can earn. Not super involved but is another fun way to see how you've been reading 😊
Been a kobo girl since i first began e-reading and pre ordered both colour devices on pre order for my bf and i ❤️ they were great for our long flight to japan in june!
I was a kindle girly my entire life until I started using the kobo app on my iPad with the markup feature and fell in love with the way kobo allows you to annotate compared to the kindles way. I now own a Kobo Libra Color & haven’t touched my Kindle Oasis except to move it out of my way. lol.
Obsessed with your glasses and your hair!! Love the review also 🎉 I love my kobo libra color but right now I miss it I’m waiting for a replacement bc it broke 😆 it should be here any day but until then watching reviews to fill the void haha
OMG I got my KLC yesterday and also struggled with the box for the cover! So glad I'm not the only one :D Hope you love your KLC! The yellow cover is gorgeous - I got the green (also stunning!)
I noticed that! My only problem is that I’d throw it into my bookbag and lose the stylus. I’ll have to experiment though, the magnet seems pretty strong
I can’t wait for mine to come! I should’ve waited for the white stylus but it’s okay! I can always put a skin on it. And btw, that’s the BEST flavored ginger ale! ❤️
I just got the Kobo Libra Colour and I love it! Also, thank you for letting me know it has a collections feature, I completely skipped that and didn't notice it lol. Edit: Just requested on Storygraph, great reading taste!
The only thing holding me back is books. It is so easy to get books on the Kindle from Amazon. I have heard it is difficult and you have to go through some steps to get kindle books onto a Kobo. This is especially true because I am signed up with the unlimited plan (which I love). My current kindle is 10 years old but it still works great. Probably will just keep it for now.
@@TNgirl546 it’s true to switch your books over you’d have to do it a special way (because Amazon keeps stuff proprietary, of course 🙄) but kobo also has an unlimited option. I don’t use it, but I’ve heard it’s pretty good. It’s also super easy to get library books on the kobo, you can do it right from the kobo itself. But if your kindle still works, that’s awesome! It’s lasted awhile :)
i’m asking for one for christmas for very similar reasons to you (especially that bezos comment😂) and have been watching a ton of reviews, i love how concise and clear yours is! i’ve never had an e reader, only briefly used my mom’s kindle way back when they first came out and really didn’t like it then, but the newer ones look so great, especially from kobo! i’ve been looking into one lately as i have severe migraines but love to read, and can’t read physical books much any more & heard e ink is easy on the eyes i did have one question, does it have a textured screen, like a “paper like” screen protector would? i really don’t love that feeling and am curious if i should plan to buy a glass screen protector to cover it or not (i’m aware that could add glare, id mostly be using it in near pitch black settings so it wouldn’t be an issue for me)
Thanks for the compliment!! It does have a very slight papery feel, but not nearly as much as one of those paper-feel screen protectors or actual paper :)
I'm contemplating on buying it after I pass my second year of med school 😊 I just have a question if you'll please answer my inquiry can you annotate your personal epub/pdf books on the kobo e-reader☺
I ordered straight from the website! Got to me pretty quick (I’m in Ohio). I could’ve ordered from Amazon but didn’t want to give them any more money 😅
@@cocosbooknook I'm from India and the website doesn't ship to India and its only available in Amazon also the stylus isn't available on both websites,and I want a kobo so bad😅😭
My main concern is whether the screen is a bit too faded/low contrast text. Some say it has that issue but when you show it to camera it doesn’t look bad
@Penpaper I personally don’t find it to be an issue, especially if the brightness is up. It may seem somewhat faded compared to like a kindle paperwhite, but I don’t really notice it. Also, for me, the lack of ads and the easy side loading are worth a slightly less crisp screen. I hope that helps you with your decision!
That's the refresh, it happens on every e-ink display, including kindle and boox. With the kobo, when you go to reading settings, you can decide how often it refreshes (I chose every four pages read). It doesn't happen as much when you're in a book. If I make a follow up video I'll try to mention or show something about it. It's also never bothered me, but I could see if it bothered others! :)
Also the refresh always appears more evident on a camera than it is in person. On camera it makes it look very obvious and highly irritating whereas in person once you start reading/using it you barely notice it.

@@cocosbooknook Okay thanks for the quick response. I ordered it and a nook. I subbed!
@ thank you!
Moved up from an 7 year old Kobo Clara HD, to the Kindle Libre Colour. It's amazing.
Thank you so much! For the review, I was actually thinking about getting mine as well and this review really helped me to make up my mind. Thank you so much!!!😅
You’re welcome! I’m so glad it helped. 😊

Oh that's great! I'm a sucker for a badge or achievement hehe.

That’s awesome! I love a good e-reader for a flight. So much better than lugging physical books around.
Enjoy I have this kobo with the stylus. I love it but I hope in the future they can make it with sharper images.

Right? Lmao same with my old kindle. I just love the annotation and the customization of the kobo so much
Obsessed with your glasses and your hair!! Love the review also 🎉 I love my kobo libra color but right now I miss it I’m waiting for a replacement bc it broke 😆 it should be here any day but until then watching reviews to fill the void haha
Thank you! I got them from eye buy direct. I hope your replacement comes quick!

I’m so glad I’m not the only one! 🤣 I felt so stupid trying to figure out how to open that
I have the white kobo yellow case like yours and black stylus. I love it! The stylus attaches to the cover so you don’t need a holder.
I noticed that! My only problem is that I’d throw it into my bookbag and lose the stylus. I’ll have to experiment though, the magnet seems pretty strong
Do you live in the US? Are you able to get library books through overdrive on the Kobo? Thanks for making this video. 😊 Also, love the thumbnail.
Yes, I do! And yup, I get them from the discover tab on the kobo.
You’re welcome 😊
I recently got a kobo too girl and I’m OBSESSED. Never going back to kindle!!!!
I love mine got it early for Christmas I got black one
Can't wait for mine ot arrive today or tmr... I CAN'T WAITTT
I can’t wait for mine to come! I should’ve waited for the white stylus but it’s okay! I can always put a skin on it. And btw, that’s the BEST flavored ginger ale! ❤️
Oh my god, yes it is!! I'm obsessed with it. If they ever discontinue it, I'll cry. And good thinking about the skin on the stylus :D
I just got the Kobo Libra Colour and I love it! Also, thank you for letting me know it has a collections feature, I completely skipped that and didn't notice it lol. Edit: Just requested on Storygraph, great reading taste!
You’re welcome! I plan on doing a follow up video in about a month too :)
Accepted your StoryGraph request 😊
I got a kobo Clara BW and black sleep cover, and I'm pretty satisfied with it!

@@filzafarheen6455 yep! The one I annotated in the video was an epub I put on the kobo
Im not sure what you said about Bezos but I got the gist and likely agree 😂
@@Penpaper something something blight on humanity? Hahaha
Great review! This made me want to switch to kobo. My kindle has been hanging on for over a decade now though…
Thanks! If it gives out on you, you know what to go with now, though! lol
That's a Lovely kobo❤
Where did you order it from?
Amazon?
I ordered straight from the website! Got to me pretty quick (I’m in Ohio). I could’ve ordered from Amazon but didn’t want to give them any more money 😅
Straight from Kobo’s website, I mean :)
@@cocosbooknook I'm from India and the website doesn't ship to India and its only available in Amazon also the stylus isn't available on both websites,and I want a kobo so bad😅😭
@ I’m so sorry! Maybe the stylus will be available later? 😭
I ordered the same case!

@@cocosbooknookWhat about this flashing black effect each time the screen is touched? Does it hurt/bother the eyes?
That's the refresh, it happens on every e-ink display, including kindle and boox. With the kobo, when you go to reading settings, you can decide how often it refreshes (I chose every four pages read). It doesn't happen as much when you're in a book.

What is the name of the song in the background?
I'm not sure! It was a royalty free song from Capcut.
You should have waited a little bit more....They are releasing White stylus
I saw! But I couldn’t wait 😅
When.
???
A question: has anyone tried using it with a screen protector? Does it affect the crispness or the stylus experience?
I have not, I’m sorry :/
