    After having a terrible experience with an Onyx Boox Palma breaking within 24 hours of receipt…I’m glad I rage bought a Kobo Libra Colour lol.

      I ordered it even though I have a perfectly good libra 2 that I use all the time. Mine hasn’t arrived yet. If I like it I’ll give my mom the non colour otherwise she gets the colour. Even though I normally avoid unreviewed devices I’ll give kobo the benefit of the doubt once as the Libra 2 is an excellent device.

        I’m really pleased with mine. I figured out if you use nickelmenu it is possible to have the games too! That is the only way I have found to access them. For some reason Kobo isn’t making them accessible even with devmodeon enabled.

        I upgraded from an Aura H20 Edition 2 so I notice a distinct upgrade in speed and function. I hope you like yours as much as I like mine!

        I have the Libra 2 as well and I like it a lot. I’ve heard the repairability and upgradeability aren’t the best though because there’s a bunch of glue to make it waterproof. Glad they’re taking steps to improve that moving forward though.
