Clara Colour | eReader | 6” Glare-Free Colour E Ink Display | Dark Mode Option | Waterproof | Audiobooks | 16GB of Storage | Black

Initially, I had a Kobo Libra Colour, but found that it was a bit too large for my liking. While I did love the buttons, I just wanted something a bit smaller and lighter. The color screen was a must, so there weren't a lot of options. I gave this a try, and am more than pleased with it. It's about the size of a basic Kindle. Looks almost just like one, although the corners aren't as rounded, and obviously, it says "Kobo" across the front, rather than "Kindle." It's got 16 gigs of storage - more than enough for a library's worth of books if you don't have manga - and a decent color screen. Now, I say "decent," because it is e-ink, not because this device has a poor display. It's never going to be as bright or vibrant as an LCD, that's just the nature of the display type. But it still looks good for color panels in comic books and manga, and book covers as well. Not to mention, you can make annotations in different colors, for organization. The user interface is very simple to use. It shows you what you need to know, and nothing you don't. I find it much easier to navigate than stock Kindle software. I'd intended to install KOReader on it, but I have no need to. The base software works great for me. You can only use dark mode when you're actually reading a book, however, so the interface will always be in light mode otherwise. Not a huge deal, but a little disappointing nonetheless. You can actually add custom screensavers to your Kobo pretty easily, too. Just plug it into a computer, open the folder labeled, ".kobo," make a new folder in there called, "screensaver," and then put your screen savers in. It will randomly select one every time you put the device to sleep. You may need to increase the brightness and saturation if you want colors to show up clearly, but it's still a nice feature for customization! Not to mention how easy it is to sideload books onto it. Especially with Calibre. Effortless to put all your books on it. Plus, the store interface is pretty easy to use as well. You can also use Overdrive to get books rented from your local library onto it as well. There's no way to run out of things to read, really. Battery life is great, if you turn off bluetooth and wifi. I've been reading like crazy - have read a couple 400+ page novels with it over the past couple weeks - and it's still at 75% battery. I have my brightness a bit lower, so that definitely contributes, but still. You will get a lot of life out of this thing. Overall, I think this is a wonderful ereader. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to get into color ereaders without breaking the bank.

One of the best purchases I've made in a while. I've always wanted to get into reading, and this was the tool for me as it's lightweight and compact, as well as a great ecosystem of books available.

I absolutely love this ebook reader. Like any ebook reader, it helps me focus on the activity of reading. Where this really shines on the hardware side: - The color cover of the book you’re currently reading (along with progress) triggers me to pick up and read again. I’m reading a lot more than I did before getting this reader. - The location of the button to wakeup the device is perfectly placed to allow for me to grab it and start reading, all one handed. On the software side: - The wakeup feature is lightning quick. I can squeeze in a quick read, regardless of how little time I have. - The colored highlighting incentivizes me to highlight even more than I would normally. - I like to read more than one book at a time and swiping and switching takes a couple seconds, which is enjoyable. - The ebook format compatibility is second-to-none. - Using overdrive is a breeze. The only con that the book store is a little lacking. I would 110% buy again.

Have had this for 2-3 months and love it. Love the way colors show up on it, perfect for me as i have sensitive eyes. Brightness is perfect. Size is perfect as i can carry it around without too much hassle. Battery life is also impressive as it lasts me a week or 2 without having to charge it. Its a bit slow to respond but not to the point its is annoying. Definitely recommend for an e -reader that is not too expensive but still very easy to use

I love mine! I’ve had it since April of this year, the only thing is, I wish I would have bought the warranty. Today, some of the text was looking a bit faded. I thought it was my eyes, but nope. It’s only really evident when the back light is on. But I love the battery life, portability, and speed of it! It’s a great little device! Also, as a former Kindle user, it’s on the smaller side of e-readers. And it’s comfortable to hold with one hand! I HAD a pop socket on it, but my pup retaliated after I brushed her teeth…. Buy this, and you’ll likely read more. It’s my travel buddy, and I’ve reached my reading goal already for the year!

I have bought these for each of my younger kids (8 and 5). Their time spent reading has skyrocketed. Library integration allows me to add books to their devices easily and quickly without having to worry about returning books on time! I can load books before a long road trip and they are entertained for hours while exercising their brains. Color pictures make it so much more enjoyable for them to read. I love that there is no paying extra to avoid ads. Battery life is great. The size is perfect for the kids to be able to sit and hold comfortably for long stretches reading. Every member of our family has a color Kobo ereader (two of these and four Libra Colours for the older family members) and just about every day I find myself thinking what great purchases these were. I am hard pressed to come up with anything else that makes me think that so often.

I ordered it for my wife and she absolutely loves it. She’s a big reader and really likes how much you can do with this compared to other tablets.

It’s so much easier to read when you aren’t worried about damaging your books. I haven’t charged it for a couple of weeks now and still have something like 25% battery too. The colors are fine, on darker gradients you can see layers of different shades, but it’s not like a huge deal.
