Kobo Clara 2E | eReader | Glare-Free 6” HD Touchscreen | ComfortLight PRO Blue Light Reduction | Adjustable Brightness | WiFi | 16GB of Storage | Carta E Ink Technology | Waterproof

The biggest advantage of this device for me is the agnostic file format support. I specifically got this e reader because it supports DRM free formats like epub, and it did not disappoint. Not only is it super easy to transfer epubs from a computer (with or without calibre), but it also has a built in web browser so you can download books directly from a server. Other Pros: - USB C charging is great - adjustable light temperature w/ auto adjustment based on time of day - no ads on the Home Screen! - built in overdrive support - supports dark mode - battery life well exceeds 1 month Cons - no black color option, only dark blue So much happier with this over a Kindle, and I don’t have to worry about Amazon selling my library and reading data or getting bombarded with ads when all I want to do is read my books.

The Kobo reader can render ePubs where Kindle readers do not or can not. That was Amazons decision. It was a deal breaker for me. The Kobo Clara 2e is everything I expected and more. I dont think anyone can go wrong with this ereadrer for the price. The only thing that I dont like is the price of eBooks on the Kobo store. they are considerably more expensive. I dont know why. So, I dont use the Kobo store.

Im beginning to love this ebook reader. I load my books using calibre ang it works fine. You need a bit of patience because loading sometimes takes awhile. It has bluetooth but only works for headphones.

Very easy to read and battery life is outstanding. I used it an average of an 1-2 hours a day for 11 straight days and the battery was still at 40%. I bought this after my sone and wife raved about theirs and they were right.

I really, really, really love this eReader. The more I use it, the more I like it. Everything really is a matter of taste, but heres my 2 cents on Libra 2 vs Clara 2e: I originally bought the Libra 2 and the Clara 2e came out about a week after... I really liked the fact that its Waterproof, but I wanted something pocketable that would feel comfortable in my hands and I wasnt sure if the reader would feel too big. Sure enough, the more I used it, the more I started to think that I should have waited for the CLara 2e to come out instead. Also, the screen rotation, which I thought I would love was actually annoying and I ended up disabling it. If I tilted the eReader a bit while reading, it would flip the text on me and I had to wiggle it to fix the orientation. Another thing that I really didnt like, that I thought I would, were the page buttons... I didnt like that extra bezel where the buttons live. It made it awkward for me to have to worry about which way I was holding the reader and holding it in Landscape Mode wasnt good for me either - yet another thing I thought I would love. Weird... So, I returned the Libra 2 and got me a Clara 2e and freaking LOVE IT. What I love about it: - Im not tied to the Kindle Ecosystem anymore (drop any non-DRM ePub, text file, PDF, html, practically any format (except Kindle). - I can even drop books from my Android Phone directly into the Clara with a USB-C to USB-C Cable - Clara 2e is a bit cheaper than the Libra 2 - Its waterproof (same as the Libra 2) - It fits perfectly in my hand - It doesnt rotate the screen - I have no buttons to worry about - No wider bezel on one side to keep track of - Its the perfect size for my taste - Its kinda pocketable - in jeans back pocket or side cargo short pocket - Battery Live is incredible - I do not miss the extra screen size of the Libra 2 - I never read PDFs - its better to convert them to ePUB with an online converter (your success may vary here) - Pro Tip: Use https://pgaskin.net/kepubify/try/ to convert your ePUB to kepub and fix image clicking and other issues In the end, its all a matter of personal taste. What works for me may not work for you, but I hope this helps someone make a decision one way or the other. Whatever floats your boat...

As with every Kobo weve owned, this one is a solid device. Ive got it loaded down with a few epub files and signed it in to our library accounts. Its a lot smaller than I was expecting, but Im coming from an 8 inch device. Amazing the difference two inches makes when it comes to an ereader. No complaints. I imagine itll last throughout college for my son, then be passed to little brother like his old Kobo is.

I bought this for myself because Ive never had an ereader and books are getting more expensive. I also live with too many people in a small space to have books everywhere! This allows me to read whenever I want and is easier on my eyes than using my phone or computer.

Replaced my kindle. Able to download all my epub books. Very easy to use.

one star for glued microsd card. storage still upgradeable. clone sd card and resize storage partition and you are good to go.

I bought two Claras and both freezed up in 5 - 7 months. I never will buy a KOBO again. So disappointing. They are good if they work. But you have to consider if it is worth the money......
