Kobo Libra H20 review: Premium without the price

 

At a significantly lower price than the top-tier ebook readers, the Kobo Libra H20 goes toe-to-toe in the features department, making it a tempting proposition. Kobo had to compromise on the design and build quality, but this is still a compelling...

Kobo's Libra H20 is a feature-packed ebook reader with an affordable price

The Kobo Libra H2O sets the bar for non-Amazon ebook readers with flexible format support and a terrific form factor.

Feels cheaper, and the lack of Amazon support will be a bummer for Amazon fans.

Kobo Libra H2O review

 

The winning asymmetrical ereader design finally gets a more affordable package

Kobo's latest is smaller than the Forma, but still smart and robust, with great water resistance and a good screen. We put the Libra H20 to the test in our full review
