I bought a Libra. Kept it for a few months then replaced it with a Clara. I hardly used the Libra when I had it. Never seemed to have it handy. The little bit of extra size makes a big, negative difference. Clara fits in men’s pants pockets.
The screen is actually 36% bigger which is a lot. Portability is great on Clara but I really like to hold Libra 2. I think they are equally good and they do some things better than the other.
Thank you for the informative review, I am just wondering which of the two devices has more crisper and sharper text , also regarding the user experience, many have said Libra can be lagging while using sometimes, what’s your take on that…?
Both has the same dpi 300 so the Clara has a crispier display because it has a smaller display. And none of them lag for me because I run koreader on both and has done that from the start.
@@svartling thank you for the fast reply, I was going to buy kindle but I changed my mind at the last moment, actually I am surely planning on buying kobo Clara BW, I am just waiting for the reviews on the device, I have watched most of your reviews, I trust your wise opinion on e-readers, wish you the best.
Libra hade varit perfekt utan den breda kanten på höger sida. Förstår inte vitsen med fysiska knappar. Vilken är mest bekväm att hålla i när man ligger i soffan eller sängen?
Kobo Clara är helt klart bekvämast fast bara om man använder en popsocket på baksidan. Då kan man enkelt läsa med en hand. Jag gillar inte heller fysiska knappar
Yes you can. You would have known if you follow my channel. You find a lot of videos for you there. This for example: Kobo Clara 2e (non-color) e-Reader is so light so I will use it Naked with a PopSocket instead ua-cam.com/video/ivH5tyOGcSk/v-deo.html
The old Kobo Clara 2e black & white is codenamed "N506". Do you think the new one will keep the same codename i.e. it will be sold as an update of the old version or is it going to have a different codename given that it has different cpu (according to what I read from the internet) and thank you so much for your reviews..

Totally agree
7 inch kobo with thinner bezels would be nice. Something in the clara form factor.
Yes like the kindle paperwhite.

They fit great together
i love your videos
Great!. I wish more did
Thanks for this useful video
You’re welcome
thanks for the video!
You’re welcome.
Hello sir, thank you for your reviews. Which ebook reader do you recommend for reading pdf, Kobo clara 2e or pocketbook verse pro?
I have never own a pocketbook e-reader but reading pdf that you don’t convert to epub first usually need a larger display. So 7-8 inch is better.

Hi, can I ask what is the grip you have on the back of the Clara?
Yes you can. You would have known if you follow my channel. You find a lot of videos for you there. This for example:

Thank you Stefan.
@wonderworldguy you’re welcome
Gracias! Me ha resultado muy útil.
But what difference is there betwenn the new kobo clara 2e black & white and the older one?
The new has carta 1300 display and the old carta 1200. Not a huge difference. Slightly faster and slightly better contrast.

@souhilbenaskeur1094 it probably has a new code name because it has carta 1300.
say it for the boys in the back!! 6 INCHES IS BIG ENOUGH
If you know what I mean. I kinda do, 6' is good size on the road.
