Kobo Clara BW

kobo clara bw main image The Kobo Clara BW is all the e-reader you need with all the features you want, bar colour E Ink. However, in this relatively early stage of colour E Ink going mainstream, there’s still a good argument for sticking with just the most mature of e-reader features. That is just what the Kobo Clara BW provides. Pros It’s water resistance Wide array of features Top-tier E Ink screen Coat pocket friendly Cons The screen will seem small to some Colour E Ink available for a little more £ Key Features 6in E Ink Carta 1300 screen A Carta 1300 E Ink display promises better contrast than older generations of ereader, but it’s a relatively small panel.
