Review: Very nice reader - So I'm new to "readers," but have read off my tablet for a long time. I'm not a big reader, but I'm trying to do that more, so a nice, light-weight, dedicated reader seemed like it would help. I chose this one because it has OverDrive already in place and ready to go -- and I read mostly library loan books, so I thought that would be more convenient. I had a couple of hiccups getting that working (mostly my ignorance). I don't have any previous experience to compare it to (except it's far superior to reading on a tablet), but I'll say that reading is a pleasure. Good screen, touch-screen or buttons work perfectly. I thought the small screen would bother me, but it's so easy to page up it's not an issue at all. I love that it has auto-rotate, I'm learning that for holding it when I'm reading outside I like vertical where I can hold the large side handle, but I have a "thing" to hold it while I sit leisurely by the window indoors, and then I prefer horizontal. It's okay to be spoiled :-) It has very nice and easy adjustments - just slide a bar to increase type size or brightness. I like their typeface and spacing options. I've had it for four days and I'm mostly playing with it so far, and it's lost half its charge in that time. I don't think that's a huge deal, but others have commented about it. I'm struggling a little about just one thing -- it does not support the X-Ray feature that Kindle has to keep track of characters -- for whatever reason I have a problem remembering the names of the many secondary characters even a day later, and I have used X-Ray pretty regularly to keep up. I like that feature. It may only available on Kindles, but for an expensive and high-end reader, I think it should have such useful features as this. But the quality of the screen (and the bigger size) are top notch.
Review: Best purchase of the year - 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!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can i download overdrive ?**
A: You don't have to download anything.  The integration between your Kobo Libra 2 reader and Overdrive is truly seamless.  On the Kobo you can search your library's Overdrive holdings and place a hold or check out a book.  If you put a hold on a title, you'll get notified...on your Kobo!...when it's ready. Much better than the round trip through multiple sites that you see with Overdrive & Kindle.

**Q: Is this ads free?**
A: Yes, ads are an Amazon Kindle thing, not a Kobo thing.  You may get 'recommendations' for your next book you may want to read.  Unsure if to you, that qualifies as an Ad.

**Q: Did they fix the uneven lighting from the first edition? i was hoping they would add more led lights, like the 25 lights that the oasis has.**
A: Hello,I am contacting you on behalf of Rakuten Kobo. We have received your inquiry regarding the back light of the Kobo Libra 2. A slight, consistent shadow along the borders of the screen is normal for eReaders, as the display is positioned slightly below the black frame of the device; eReaders use electronic ink technology to offer you the most comfortable reading experience, with print-on-paper feel. The light shines down on the page, as opposed to the LCD screen technology used in smartphones and tablets, which are lit from behind the display – providing a different lighting experience.If you have any other questions before purchasing, you can can contact our support team. Thanks!

**Q: does it have a SD card slot?**
A: Technically, yes. You have to completely remove the back off of the Libra 2, then contend with adhesive on the internal microSD card slot. However, it is not a simple drop-in of a larger card. You need to copy the image of the internal card, write the image to your larger microSD card, then expand the partition on the larger card - something I did using gparted on Linux. Once successful, you will see the Libra 2 reporting the higher capacity of storage.

Pro tip: if you go this route, search for the method online, and read carefully. You run a very good risk of destroying your reader if you are not careful.

Short answer: no external microSD card slot is available on this device. The internal microSD card can be upgraded with a bit of effort and research.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice reader

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best purchase of the year
*by K***Z on December 12, 2022*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Converted from Kindle to Kobo
*by C***N on September 14, 2023*

Let's preface this by saying that I've been an avid Kindle user for the past few years. I started with a Kindle Voyager (wonderful e-reader) and have had two Kindle Paperwhites in the past couple of years - the most recent of which is the Paperwhite Signature edition. The Kobo Libra 2 is my first Kobo. I love it. I love the fact that it's functional for reading. That's why we got e-readers, right? To read things? No BS. No constant advertisements that you need to spend $20 to remove. The ability to borrow books from your library directly from the e-reader is so lovely. The fact that it plays well with other formats. The fact that it feels SO NICE in the hand is probably the top reason I love it. The asymmetrical design (yes - Oasis has this as well...but I don't like the feel of the Oasis...which is also much more expensive) is very comfortable to hold - and the Kobo is light - in many cases, it's lighter than a book! It's waterproof. It has page turn buttons (I thought I wouldn't want those and that they looked silly compared to the buttonless technology we have today - nope. They're nice. Function first). The fact that the screen isn't flush seemed weird, too - but you get a crisper page that way - and, yes, you can notice it. I've been converted. I've tasted Kobo, and I'm not looking back. Will I still keep my Kindle around? Absolutely - I've got quite a few books I've purchased through Kindle that I would like to hold on to - and I still love my Kindle. Could I read those through the Kindle app on my phone or laptop? Absolutely - but I prefer the e-reader experience over a phone screen. But moving forward, I think I'll be sticking with Kobo. Do I still recommend Kindles? Yes! But I just might recommend a Kobo first. And I dunno - maybe this is going to be like the Android vs iPhone or Mac vs PC kinda thing (it probably will be/is). I'm team Kobo. Here's a summary of the pros and cons I've noticed after having my Kobo for a few days: Things that bring me joy: - Very comfortable to hold (for my Paperwhite, I depend on the sleep cover to hold it properly - I don't need that with the Kobo. I also tried out the Oasis a while back, but I didn't like how the back cut into my hand...with the Kobo Libra, my hand stays comfortable, even after reading for hours) - You can rotate the device, and the screen will keep up. I switch from holding it in my right hand to my left hand...the Libra 2 will rotate the screen to accommodate this. Heck - you can even read it in landscape if you want to (maybe easier for certain formats/pubs). And if you don't, you can lock it to be only in portrait mode. - Page turn buttons (that you can program for which button turns the page forward or backward) - No ads - Waterproof (yes - Kindles have this, too!) - Clearer screen (you don't have extra layers of glass/plastic in front of it) - Lightweight (lighter than quite a few books - I legit weighed them out of curiosity) - Direct integration with OverDrive (for you Kindle users out there, Libby now owns OverDrive - if you're used to going to Libby to link your library card to your Kindle, it's similar - but with Kobo, you don't NEED the Libby app on your phone to do this - you just do it from the Kobo) - The power button IS ON THE BACK OF THE KOBO (you don't accidentally tap the power button like you might on Kindle - is that just me??) - Did I mention how comfortable it is to hold? (seriously - I noticed the second that I pulled it out of the box that I was going to prefer reading on this thing) - The ability to easily load fonts (Bookerly is probably my favorite font at this point - I came to love it over the past few years having a Kindle...didyaknow that you can load Bookerly to your Kobo? Name a font, and you can do it in a matter of a couple of minutes. Have done. Works perfectly.) - You can purchase books through Kobo's store, just like the Kindle store (are there as many titles? No - but it's an option when your library doesn't have it) - You can set your sleep screen to be blank. Or you can set it to be the book you're currently reading (without having to spend $20 extra to remove ads) - There's a Kobo app for your phone just like a Kindle app - It's so comfortable to hold! (wait I think I already said that...) - USB -C charging - warm light backlighting - backlight can be adjusted easily by just swiping your finger up or down along the outside of the screen - Uh...32 gigs of storage? Who needs that? But it's there for audiobooks, I suppose. And that's just inherently built in...in case you need to store the entire contents of the Library of Alexandria on there or something along those lines... - Audiobooks - yes, it can store them and play them via Bluetooth...but I personally don't use an e-reader to listen to audiobooks. It's 2023, and I have a cellphone. I personally don't see the point of adding audiobooks to an e-reader (it's an e-reader...not an e-listener). But if others find that a necessity, it's available on this device! - Direct Pocket integration! I'VE YET TO USE THIS FEATURE BUT HEY IT'S THERE! Things that don't bring me joy: - Fingerprint central. The plastic/coating that's used shows fingerprints like nobody's business. I have the black version, so I'm not sure if the white version would be better...but black looks nicer IMO...so fingerprints it is. I don't have greasy fingers (and I live in Colorado...so they're not exactly sweaty either). But man, oh man. It looks like I just polished off a bag of potato chips after I look at all the prints on this thing. - Can be glitchy sometimes. The software experience isn't quite as smooth as Kindle - not gonna lie. The vast majority of the time, It works as it should (yep - page has turned correctly). Rarely, it does freeze. But holding the power button to jolt it back has worked fine so far...will see how things fare over the next several months/year. - CAN feel cheap - I think this might be because it feels lighter - I DEFINITELY prefer the lighter feel of this to the heavier Paperwhite...but it doesn't FEEL like I spent this much money on this device. The plastic sometimes pops/clicks every once in a while. - Pattern on the back - it's got this pattern on the back that I'm not sure if it's supposed to make the thing grippier? Or cool? But dust and crumbs get stuck in it. It looks like the Clara 2E is changing things up a bit, and that looks like a nicer backing - Very few 3rd party accessories - this isn't a Kindle. It's MUCH tougher to find accessories for Kobo products. For a sleeve, I ended up looking for Oasis accessories. I'm personally not going to get a sleep cover for my Kobo (I don't really need one from a grippy perspective - and I don't want to ruin the feel of it in my hands)...but if I did want to get a sleep cover, I found that options are quite limited. Overall Impressions: Yes. I honestly can't wait for them to come out with a Libra 2E or whatever will be next. I love this thing more than I love lamp. And I've been telling all my friend to get one.
