KOBO VS KINDLE
I’m trying to decide between the Kobo Clara Colour and the Kindle Paperwhite as my first e-reader. Please help 😭
My main concerns are:
- eye strain during long reading sessions
- lag or sluggishness
- ghosting
- durability/fragility
- dead pixels or QC issues
- battery life over time
- software bugs/freezing
- epub downloads
I’m interested in the Kobo because of the open ecosystem, color screen, and I also like to highlight in different colors (but i can also do without it) but I keep hearing about dead pixels, battery issues, and other QC issues.
Questions:
- Which one actually feels better day-to-day?
- Does the Clara Colour’s screen bother you after long reading sessions?
- Is the Kindle really noticeably smoother/faster?
- Any durability or dead pixel issues with either?
- Any regrets after choosing one over the other?
- Do you have any other e-readers or model you can suggest?
Which one should I choose??
Thank you so much!!
