It appears the UI is kept consistent across its eReader line. I sense Kobo is very mindful of UI changes complementing and preserving its fine reading experience. I am pleasantly surprised at the number of software updates,adding thoughtful features and more importantly fixing the bugs. Freezes were never (almost never?) while simply reading and page turning. For the first year I had sometimes glitchy library checkout, rare but annoying freezes, and spotty computer connectivity. I initially bought it due to my girlfriend’s Libra H2O working perfectly, but as things stand the difference is night and day.įWIW I've had a Kobo Forma since April 2019.
#Refurbished kobo canada update
I am currently desperately hoping for a good firmware update which would make the device predictable in usage. Supposedly you have to go for a kobo if you sideload books, but a glance at the forums and kobo subreddit will show you people constantly have to factory reset their devices because there’s always something going wrong.īear in mind I really want to make the kobo work and have gone through 10 devices at the shop for the ghosting and 3 devices for all the other issues.
Occasionally the device freezes and you need to reset it. At the July software update a ton of people including me got their readers stuck in boot loops as well, struggling to update, god knows why. It simply refuses to actually connect to the pc and goes into a boot loop. The reader doesn’t play good with usb cables and that includes the cable from the box. The supposedly same screen (carta 1200) has a slight unfixable ghosting issue, regardless of page refresh frequency. For four months with the Kobo I’ve not had a day with something not going wrong. For five years with the Paperwhite I just sideloaded books and read them. I myself made the switch from an old paperwhite to a kobo libra 2. Currently, due to a string of bad firmware updates from May onwards, the Libra 2 are extremely bug ridden and there’s always something that’s not working as planned.
