If you don't mind touch screens, this is perfect.
By excentric on April 20, 2019
I hate, hate, hate touch screens. I want to go 'home', I wind up skipping pages, backing up, anything but getting to the home page. It is extremely annoying. Other than that, I absolutely love this more than all the Kindles I've ever had. Five. altogether. No, six. I hated the PaperWhite so much, I gave it away. This has an easily adjusted light so it does not hurt your eyes or light up the room. The text is small, but not TOO small, and that means less touching. God, I miss side clickers. The touch thing may seem like a deal-killer, but no. I love this little Kobo, and I love that I can use Overdrive to get books from my library so easily. You can put Pocket on it, too. I read an article about this and decided to give it a try, and yep. It's a good thing. Sometimes you spend your money on something that's just right, and this is one of those things.

The only issue I have experienced was when I wanted to read outside - or anywhere where direct sunlight, glare is a problem - which you know makes it virtually impossible to read on a tablet. They have so many great features, but outside reading isn't one of them.
Was going on an extended trip where I would be outside a lot and wanted to be able to read. I first ordered a Kindle ereader. I did not realize that I could not "borrow" books directly from my library like I am able to do with Overdrive. My husband and I had a serious disagreement about this - says it isn't necessary, just download whatever books you want and put them on the reader -- return/borrow when you again have internet/tablet access. NO, NO, NO - this is not for me. If I am at the beach (wherever) finish and book and want to browse my library catalog, I want to do it now darnit - now have to wait.
His kindle ereader what quite a few years old - so I said, "OK you love it so much, you can have this one. I will buy something that supports overdrive". Win-win for both of us.
Checked overdrive to see what reader they recommended. After watching various youtube videos, reading reviews, I decided on the Kobo and I am glad I did. It works perfectly for an Overdrive gal like me.
I have not had a particular situation where I could not read in any outside condition. Can easily browse library catalog anywhere I have internet access and can check on available books immediately from the Kobo without needing a computer or another device.
Highly recommend this product for anyone who has my particular requirements.
I will say the kindle ereader was very nice and looks almost exactly like the Kobo and was a LOT less expensive so if Overdrive isn't necessary for you, don't spend the extra on this ereader.
Thanks.

I Love This Reader! Works With Overdrive!
By NLM4501 on August 22, 2019
Several years ago I finally gave up on actual paper copies of books and went the Kindle Fire tablet route. Eventually upgraded to a competetor tablet and no longer used Kindle app but the Overdrive app from my local on-line digital library. I actually preferred this method as you borrow, return, browse, reserve, etc. all through the Overdrive app and do not have to add the extra step that the Kidle app required.By NLM4501 on August 22, 2019

Phenomenal e-Reader
By Av.Eighty on January 17, 2019
The Kobo Clara HD is very functional for my commute to and from work on the long train ride and for reading at night. It has a 6-inch Carta E-Ink touchscreen with 300ppi - so the screen reading is better than any bookpage I've ever read. It comes with 8GB of memory [no need for a memory card] which means it can hold over 5,000 e-Books. The ComfortLight technology is perfect for night-time reading in bed causing NO eye strain nor does it bother my wife. It has some font choices to change your reading format, displays ePub / PDF / Jpeg / Txt etc... supports multiple languages and has no ads. It synched with my Overdrive library and my Pockets app too. GET IT! The kobo website can give you a better price. Hope this review helped you!

Todas las ventajas del Kobo en un dispositivo más ligero y pequeño.

Todas las ventajas del Kobo en un dispositivo más ligero y pequeño.
Reviewed in Spain on July 30, 2018
Estoy más que satisfecha con el Kobo Clara. Llevo casi 7 años leyendo en un Kindle 4 y no veía la necesidad de cambiarlo (ni siquiera por uno con luz integrada); sin embargo, dado que necesitaba otro e-reader dónde poder leer los libros de la e-biblio (red de bibliotecas públicas de España), me di a la tarea de buscar dispositivos compatibles con la tecnología Adobe DRM. Me decidí por los Kobo porque buscaba un dispositivo respaldado por una gran empresa y con un amplio catálogo de libros, a la altura de la que nos ofrece Amazon Kindle.Reviewed in Spain on July 30, 2018
Y específicamente, me decidí por el modelo Clara, por dos razones:
1. Es el más ligero y pequeño del mercado (en la foto adjunta, se puede observar que aunque tiene la misma medida de pantalla que el Kindle 4: 6 pulgadas; al tener el marco más angosto, el tamaño del dispositivo es inferior).
2. Cuesta lo mismo que un paper white (o costaba, porque acabo de darme cuenta de que en Amazon ya han subido su precio), pero tiene el doble de capacidad de almacenamiento.
Llevo 3 semanas usándolo y cada vez estoy más contenta de mi elección. De momento no he tenido que cargarlo ni una sola vez, usándolo todos los días, al menos una hora. Tiene un detalle muy chulo, que es, que cuando está en modo reposo, se queda como fondo de pantalla, la portada del libro que estés leyendo. Su iluminación es genial, se adapta a la luminosidad del ambiente; y sobre todo, la luz nocturna, que permite leer con claridad, sin cansar la vista. Precisamente la calidad de la luz nocturna es lo que más me ha sorprendido de este modelo.
Una ventaja adicional, es que su uso es muy intuitivo; en el escritorio solo incluyen la biblioteca de libros propios, sin publicidad, lista de deseos, ni sugerencias.
Tiene wifi, varios tipos de letra, búsqueda, diccionario, etc. como todos los e-readers actualmente. Soporta varios tipos de formatos de archivos de texto; por lo que no tienes que tirar de Calibre. Solo tiene botón de ON/OFF y entrada USB. La carcasa es de un plástico rugoso, por lo que da mucha confianza al sujetarlo, de que no resbale.
Lo que echo en falta son los botones de cambio de página en el marco que sí tiene el Kindle 4; en el clara solo puede pasarse página pulsando la pantalla. Asimismo; otra ventaja de los Kindle que no tienen los Kobo, es la posibilidad de pasar los libros del PC al dispositivo a través de correo electrónico.
Sin embargo, en términos generales me parece mucho mejor producto que el Paper White (hablo con conocimiento de causa, pues lo probé durante dos semanas antes de devolverlo); mucho mejor iluminación, el doble de gigas de almacenamiento, sencillez de manejo, sin publicidad y más ligero y portable.
Lo recomiendo si eres usuario de ebiblio, o si no quieres limitarte a comprar libros en una sola tienda de ebooks.

Un Kobo più che meraviglioso
Reviewed in Italy on June 14, 2018
Questo Kobo è meraviglioso. Vengo da un Kobo Aura vecchio e l'HD dello schermo si nota davvero tanto. La lettura è confortevole. Non ho ancora provato al buio completo la funzione di schermo della luce blu, ma penso non rimmarrò deluso.Reviewed in Italy on June 14, 2018
Un prodotto superiore e fantastico.
È leggerissimo è facile da usare in una mano, l'unica cosa è che la luminosità rimane sempre accesa e non ha il pulsante dedicato ( come sul mio vecchio Kobo) per spegnere la luce.
Non sono per nulla deluso, ottimo acquisto davvero!!
A breve farò un video notturno, per far vedere come cambia l'intensitá della luce e il filtro luce blu.
