Product Description
An elegant reading experience.
Kobo Aura's beautiful 6" ClarityScreen and a high res, edge-to-edge low-glare Pearl E Ink screen provides a print on paper reading experience, even in direct sunlight.
The latest E Ink screen technology allows you to transition between pages without those annoying flashes. With pinch to zoom, you'll catch every detail when zooming in to PDFs and select books. Or change font sizes with a simple pinch.
The ultimate in readability.
Kobo eReaders are carefully crafted to deliver a superior reading experience. The high res, low-glare E Ink screens read just like print on paper – even in direct sunlight to minimize eye strain – so you can keep on reading. Kobo Aura features ComfortLight, the most even front-light. And brightness settings adjust with one simple gesture to set the background light to what’s most comfortable for you.
