Kobo Aura H2O (2014)

- 90AVERAGE USER SCORE1 Reviews13xforever90December 2, 2014Feedback submitted!Unable to submit feedback!It's a very light and easy to use eInk reader, with lots of customization options (and there're custom mods for even deeper changes if needs be). And it has the best built-in lighting that I've ever seen/used.It takes a bit to learn and customize the software for personal needs, but after that, you can just use it without any problem.There're various neat software features (like reading stats, etc.), but sadly, support will vary with the book formats (proprietary kepub gets all the attention, regular epubs use standard Adobe renderer and lacks custom features, as are pdfs).Coming from Sony readers, I can see how library management could be made easier to use too.Also, if you're using Calibre, then you will want to install an additional plugin for Kobo readers (Kobo Utilities), as the default device plugin is lacking in features (no collection management, no cover thumbnail generation, etc.)
