Kobo - Clara BW-eReader-6" Glare-Free Touchscreen with ComfortLight PRO-Dark Mode Option-Waterproof-16GB - 2025 - Black

Awesome product. I bought this to replace my Galaxy Tab S7, which I had exclusively been using to read for the last few years. The e-ink display alone made the replacement worth it (much easier on the eyes), but other things like smaller form factor, light weight, and battery life confirmed this was a great choice. My Kobo arrived a week ago with 50% battery. I charged it up to 85% and have used it for a couple hours every day since without charging again - it is currently sitting at 40% battery. The non-reflective display is great; certain reading lamps in my house would cause a big glare on my tablet, but it's negligible on the Kobo. As mentioned, the device is small and light - fits comfortably in one hand or two, could easily go in a pocket - and comfortable to hold. My hands and wrists always got uncomfortable after a long period of reading on the tablet, but the Kobo doesnt have this issue. I was originally concerned the display would be too small, but it's perfect - roughly the size of a trade paperback, but doesn't come with the concern for bent and warped pages. It comes with access to the Kobo store which has a decent selection of books. I wish you could remove the advertisements for the store on the device's home page, but it's still less intrusive advertising than Amazon products. Getting my existing ebook collection on the Kobo was seamless - just connected to my computer and used Calibre to sideload. I've really enjoyed my first week with this device and definitely anticipate an increase in my reading as a result. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a dedicated reading device that's easy on the eyes, simple/comfortable to use, and free from distraction.

LOVE this e-reader! I recently purchased this after not having an e-reader foe the past 12 years. Easy to upload books and articles.

It is a bit laggy but that is no surprise considering that this isn't an electronic device technically. It's comfortable for the eyes, doesn't give me eye strain, and the fact that it drives me away from getting distracted to other things that phones or laptops would is just great. 7 inches would've been too big for me. If you have short, small hands and don't want others to see what you're reading, get the 6-inch one!

I would highly recommend this e reader alternative to Kindle.
