![]() New screen with better contrast than older readers - Sage, Libra 2 So you'll have to consider what features are the most important to you. ![]() The screen size on the Libra doesn't bother you? I'm thinking now it wouldn't bother me, as physical books I read are probably the same size as the Libra, if not smaller sometimes.īut the Sage and the Libra 2 have better screens and the Sage also has a faster processor. But again, I won't be using it for that many hours each day, maybe 1-2 tops and always at home. I'm put off on the Sage because of the battery issues, but then I know the Forma is older (I believe the Sage is the newer version of the Forma). I didn't realise Calibre would send to Kobo without something in between, it's made me look at the models differently now. I've had two older Kobos (Still have Original H2O) and have Sony PRS350, 3x Kindle models (and used others), Boyue Likebook Mars (mostly for library books and some PDFs) and a Kobo Elipsa (used mainly as ewriter, but also some PDFs).Īll most all my ebook reading and annotation is on the Libra. I might use the ereader 1 to 12 hours a day, every day. I do a lot of proof reading, then editing, as well as reading for pleasure, so use Kobo Utilities to read back annotations. I never turn on WiFi, which extends battery life. I never need to charge my Libra (original) as I leave it connected a while when transferring via USB from Calibre. ![]() I might have to delete line heights or Left Justified with the Calibre editor at times. I use Calibre to convert to smart punctuation, indent instead of extra space at paragraph start etc, so I actually download Kindle + images version from Gutenberg. I'm in the UK so limited on where I can buy the 32GB version that I need apart from Kobo itself, Curry's and Argos don't have all the models and what they do have are the 8GB versions.Ĭalibre with any Kobo is all you need. The Libra 2 doesn't have Dropbox support: is this coming in a future update? I appreciate there may be a workaround but I'm not a coder so I'm unsure about altering things. I've never used anything to transfer other than Calibre and the Calibre Companion app so have no experience with a Kobo desktop app or Dropbox for transferring files. I need a simple easy way to add books to the Kobo device (by books I mean Project Gutenberg etc). I've heard terrible stories about the battery life on the Sage. If there's another way (easy/simple) then please let me know lol. I've always loved the Kobo app on my iPad but I don't want to store books on my iPad and the way I add books to the app doesn't work anymore (Calibre on PC to Calibre Companion app, then open in Kobo). I'm heading down the route of getting a Kobo.
