Compact and lightweight e-reader for on the go.

Colorful images
Easy to carry
Quiet screen for your eyes
Small screen for larger font

The Kobo Clara Color is a light and compact e-reader on which I read books in color on the go. I didn't receive a charger, so I had to order one myself.

Colorful screen Thanks to the color screen, I think the images in books or comic books come more to life. I also think the colorful book covers in the menu and in sleep mode are a nice addition. I highlight text with my fingers while reading. I do this, for example, when I want to read quotes again later. I highlight texts in yellow, pink, blue or green. I can easily find all marked texts in one overview.

Quiet before my eyes I adjust the brightness and warmth of the screen myself thanks to ComfortLight PRO. For example, I read outside with lots of sunlight and in the evening. I like that, because I often read before I go to sleep. I then turn the brightness down and turn on the blue light filter. I also don't have to turn on a lamp, because the screen lighting of the e-reader is sufficient. I find this easier on my eyes and I fall asleep without any problems after reading. If I don't feel like reading, I listen to an audiobook.

Light and compact I hold the light and small Kobo Clara in one hand. It also fits easily in my bag. This way I take it everywhere and read on the way to work. I did not receive a cover with the e-reader. If, like me, you take your e-reader with you a lot, I recommend a cover for protection. I personally read books in a smaller font, which is no problem on this small screen. Do you often read books in a larger font? Then I recommend a larger e-reader, such as the Kobo Libra or Kobo Sage. This way you don't have to browse as often.

Download books I easily transfer books that I already have on my laptop to the e-reader with the supplied cable. I also easily download books via the Kobo library onto the e-reader itself. I find this useful, especially if I take out a Kobo Plus subscription. I then download unlimited books and audio books for a fixed monthly price.

Compact and fast e-reader!

Noticeably faster than previous devices
Excellent screen with excellent contrast
Ideal size for on the go
Lighting a bit odd

You can also buy the color variant of this device, but for the time being I will recommend this device (the black and white variant) over the variant that can show colors, especially if you mainly read regular books. Because this device has a screen that looks slightly better in my opinion, with excellent contrast between the background and text. The text on an e-ink display has never looked this good.

Why consider black and white over color? To enable color you need an extra layer and that creates a darker screen that looks a little less like paper. This variant does not have to make this compromise, and if you only read text, this is in my opinion the best device that Kobo has currently made available in their lineup: fast, excellent screen, ideal size for on the go, and easy to read outside in the sun without needing additional lighting.

My only negative point is that the backlighting is not completely even (at the bottom you notice that the light differs slightly), but this is quite subtle and not so much of a problem. The material with which this device is made also feels sturdy when reading, and fingerprints are less likely to be visible on the frame of the device, which is also an improvement compared to the predecessor of this device.

Kobo's software is also nice and flexible, and you can put your own books and fonts on the device if you want, and make the necessary adjustments to make reading as pleasant as possible in terms of typography and readability. Especially people who experience problems with the text size of certain books will really like a device like this because you can display the text as large as you want.

In short: warmly recommended. You can take an entire library with you on the go and read books in an accessible way. Oh, and the battery also lasts much longer compared to a tablet or the like, which can also be a deciding factor.

Perfect compact e-reader

Compact size, excellent image and super handy to take with you
None discovered yet

Had a Kobo e reader for years, it needed to be replaced. I hesitated for a while about getting the same one with color, but the reviews regarding color helped me to just take the black and white. Very satisfied
