I waited until Black Friday to buy my Kobo, because I thought the original was a bit steep. Now I think of something happened to mine, I'd immediately buy it again. Full price. It is THAT good. I don't even think I need to worry because it's very sturdy, and I purchased a case to keep it in my bag.
The Kobo is amazing, the text is pristine and crisp, and it's so comfortable to hold. The buttons are very convenient, too, especially knowing that other brands who offer them, do it for a lot more money. I think the Kobo is currently the best option when it comes to ereaders, so it's worth every penny.
Edit: it's been over a month and I'm still in love! I was swayed by the 7' screen and the fact that it's waterproof. I have pretty small hands (I'm 4'11''), so I was worried it'd be too big and uncomfortable to carry everywhere, but it's really not! It somehow looks bigger in pictures, but it's about the size of a paperback, only a little wider. It is pretty lightweight and I can read while holding it with one hand. You can switch up the button commands very easily, I do it a lot when going from holding with one hand to the other.
As I said, I have freakishly small hands and I've had no issues so far, I think the size and weight are perfect! The only thing is that the cover does add some weight. I don't know how well they fare with bumps and being dropped (mine feels very sturdy but I worry about damaging the screen), but I keep mine in its case when I'm not using it because of the weight, and luckily I haven't dropped it over since I got it!
It's been a joy to have it. I really think you should go ahead and take the plunge!

I LOVE IT
I love this WAY more than I thought I would. It is sooo user friendly and has so many features I didn’t think I would appreciate as much as I do. The screen is so sharp and crisp and can be adjusted to get it nice and bright with the simple swipe of your finger up or down on the left side of the screen. The pages load way faster than my kindle paperwhites did. It fits so perfectly in my hand and the buttons are my absolute favorite part of the entire device. You can adjust which button turns the page forward vs backward. I was surprised and impressed with how quickly the screen reorients based on how you are holding it. I thought I wouldn’t know what to do with myself switching from the kindle to this, but I’m so glad I went with the kobo libra 2. The store is easy to use, and the books download quickly when purchased on the device and send quickly to your device if you buy a book on the website from your phone. The only thing I hope for with this device is that I can figure out how to load my audible books to this device. I used to use the kindle app on my iPhone to listen to whatever book I was currently reading while driving in the car. I liked the “immersive reading” experience the kindle provided in that it would save my spot between an audio and e-book, allowing me to transition between the two seamlessly. I prefer to read on my tablet, but while driving I like to switch to the he audiobook so that I can finish my books faster. I really hope Kobo figures out a way to provide something similar. Perhaps this is already possible, but I haven’t yet bought both an audio and ebook from the Kobo store. Once I finish the current book I’m reading I will try this out and update my review if I have any luck. I still think this is a five star device.

📚 📖 E-reader Kobo Libra 2: il miglior per rapporto qualità/prezzo 📖 📚

Il packaging 📦 comprende:
✔ Kobo Libra 2 (colore nero) ⚫️
✔ Cavo per la ricarica da USB type-C a USB type-A
✔ Manuale d'istruzioni
📖 Esperienza di lettura: il Kobo Libra 2 ha radicalmente cambiato in meglio il mio approccio alla lettura, in quanto offre tantissimi vantaggi rispetto alla controparte cartacea, è molto più comodo da tenere, ha una portabilità migliore già rispetto ad un solo libro e considerando che può contenere praticamente una biblioteca al suo interno non c'è paragone. Inoltre acquistando ebook si salvaguardia l'ambiente senza consumare la carta. 🌲 Questo modello inoltre essendo anche illuminato può essere usato al buio senza dover accendere lampade e oggetti simili. Unico svantaggio (soggettivo) è la mancanza del profumo di carta dei libri, aspetto invece neutrale è quello di prendere note ed appunti, anche sul Kobo è possibile prendere note ed evidenziare digitalmente, tuttavia c'è chi è molto abituato a prendere note sul cartaceo, in quei casi l'e-reader può rappresentare un limite. Altra funzione interessante è l'integrazione con Pocket, quindi è possibile leggere gli articoli online, in una modalità più chiara e priva di banner pubblicitari.
📋 Specifiche tecniche: il processore del dispositivo è di 1 GHz. E ha una memoria interna da 32 GB, una capienza praticamente illimitata per un e-reader. 🔝 Per la ricarica troviamo la praticissima porta USB type-C, quindi un caricabatterie in meno da avere in giro per casa. 😉 Ha anche la protezione per gli schizzi IPX8. Supporta ben 15 formati di e-book, ovvero: EPUB, EPUB3, FlePub, PDF, MOBI, JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP, TIFF, TXT, HTML, RTF, CBZ, CBR.
🖥 Display: troviamo un bellissimo display E Ink Carta 1200 da 7" di diagonale in formato 4:3, la risoluzione è molto elevata, arriva a 300 PPI (1264 x 1680 pixel) praticamente il massimo al momento disponibile sul mercato. 👍 Inoltre è anche dotato di tecnologia "ComfortLight PRO" con luminosità e temperatura del colore regolabili, è anche disponibile una modalità scura durante la lettura. In particolare il display non è retroilluminato, bensì illuminato lateralmente, quindi i nostri occhi non verranno colpiti dalla luce diretta, come invece avviene con gli smartphone e i tablet, infatti anche dopo ore di lettura gli occhi non appaiono stanchi, precedentemente usavo un iPad per leggere e dopo nemmeno un'ora avevo gli occhi lacrimanti, quindi su questo punto di vista c'è un evidente vantaggio. 💪
😎 Design ed ergonomia: anche su questo fronte Kobo produce ottimi dispositivi e questo modello è minimale, bello da vedere e da toccare. Ma soprattutto è comodissimo da impugnare grazie alla banda laterale asimmetrica, la quale, oltre a contenere i due tasti fisici per scorrere le pagine dei libri, consente di tenere il dispositivo con una sola mano anche per sessioni prolungate di lettura. 💪 Il frame è realizzato con delle plastiche di qualità, quindi non di alluminio, a mio parere questo è un vantaggio perché il dispositivo è leggerissimo, pesa appena 215 g. Le dimensioni sono pari a 145 × 162 × 9 mm, quindi molto compatto e quasi tascabile. Ad ogni modo i materiali e l'assemblaggio sono sempre di ottima qualità. Il design è minimale e pulito, la texture posteriore è piacevole al tatto è ne migliora il grip.
📡 Connettività: su tale fronte troviamo un modulo wifi 802.11 che supporta i protocolli di connessione a/b/g/n, la connessione è buona e sempre stabile, grazie al collegamento in rete è possibile ovviamente collegarsi allo store online di Kobo e acquistare i vari libri, la connessione permette al dispositivo anche di sincronizzare il proprio account Kobo e di scaricare gli aggiornamenti firmware. È integrato anche un modulo bluetooth per collegare cuffie o speaker per ascoltare gli audiolibri.
🔋Autonomia: come sempre in generale gli e-reader non deludono mai sul fronte autonomia, nemmeno questo Kobo libra 2 fa eccezione, infatti grazie alla sua batteria da 1500 mAh permette di leggere anche in modo assiduo per almeno 2 settimane. 💪
👍 PRO: buon rapporto qualità/prezzo; buone prestazioni; comodo ed ergonomico; leggero; non stanca la vista; ottima risoluzione; contrasto eccellente; grazie agli ebook è possibile risparmiare tantissimo rispetto ai libri di carta, rendendone l'uso molto più sostenibile; buona gestione delle note; disponibilità di dizionari di varie lingue; modalità scura; gestione automatica della luminosità in base alle ore del giorno; ottima autonomia.
👎 CONTRO: per scaricare i propri ebook bisogna necessariamente collegare il dispositivo tramite cavo USB al PC, sarebbe stato gradito un metodo di sincronizzare via Cloud come Dropbox o Google Drive; il Kobo store è molto fornito, ma non raggiunge i livelli di Amazon Kindle.
🔵 Conclusioni: se siete alla ricerca di un ottimo e-reader allora il Kobo Libra 2 è un ottimo dispositivo. Ha un ottimo livello di personalizzazione e offre molte funzioni che rendono confortevoli la lettura, se siete "divoratori" di libri, vi assicuro che una volta provato non potrete più farne a meno. A parte la lieve criticità come la mancanza dell'integrazione con Google Drive o simili è davvero un ottimo device, quindi posso concedergli il massimo dei voti. 😉
