Or you can sign up to Kobo Plus if you're in Australia, the UK, the US or New Zealand directly from the device if you'd prefer an ebook subscription service. IPX8 waterproofing rounds up its physical characteristics.Īdding to its value-for-money outlook is the fact that, in several markets, you can borrow books from a local library that supports OverDrive, saving you the cost of having to buy new ebooks. And the 7-inch screen is the sweet spot in terms of size – not too small, not too big and perfectly portable. These kinds of ereaders are really comfortable to hold and use in one hand, making the likes of the Kobo Libra 2 perfect for the daily commute. We also love the asymmetric design with the page-turn buttons. The screen refreshes super fast, and the huge battery lasts weeks on end. You get tons more storage as the default is 32GB here, something most other mainstream ereaders don't offer. While the snappy and super responsive E Ink Carta 1200 screen is now available on several ereaders, the Libra 2 performs better than the competition released at around the same time. It's a fantastic all-round champion that should be your first port of call when buying an ereader.

We gave the Kobo Libra 2 full marks in our review, which should really say all you need to know, and we haven't changed our minds since testing it in 2021. ❌ You want a fresh design: There's not a lot that's wrong with the Libra 2, but its design is feeling a little dated now.ĭespite newer models on the market, the Kobo Libra 2 is still the best overall ereader you can get because it offers great bang for your buck. There is hope, however, with a new display called E Ink Gallery 3 set to debut on the PocketBook Viva some time soon. While color ereaders exist, they're hard to recommend with the current E Ink Kaleido 3 screen technology as colors are muted and look washed out. This display is responsive, and text on the screen has good contrast to make reading in any lighting condition easy.

Whatever your needs are, all ereaders use similar E Ink technology which, at the time of writing, is the Carta 1200 screen for black-and-white models. We also have suggestions for the best tablets and best Kindles, if you have a more specific idea in mind. Once you've figured out what exactly you want from your reading device, you can use our list of the best ereaders below to find what's right for you and your budget. And while Amazon's Kindles might be the most popular brand, they may be for everyone. Yes, there are several factors to consider when dropping some money on an ereader. Questions like: is a waterproof device important to you? Do you prefer to hold and operate your ereader in one hand? Do you need to borrow library books (particularly if you live outside the US), or would you prefer an ebook subscription service instead or buy directly from an ebook store? Do you read a lot of comics and graphic novels that are better on a color screen? Do you need to take notes in margins or require something for research and journaling?
