I really like the kobo! I like that there is multiple ways to upload book as it makes it way easier. So much storage too! Also super light weight and a good size. I have been reading more which I like and the kobo is great. Its perfect and worth the money. I only had a issue once when I was uploading books but I was able to fix it so not a huge problem. I recommend to everyone!!

A brilliant ereader, that is easy to use..The overdrive/library part of the device, makes borrowing books easy The changing of fonts and margins, makes the overall reading experience a joy Brightness on mine is reduce to five percent, and still i can read easily The battery life is outstanding..I have had it for three weeks, and with wifi off (only used to sync for updates), it's still on fifty seven percent. The fact i can sideload thousands of books, made my choice even easier, and i genuinely couldn't be any happier There is genuinely not a fault i can find with this device My addiction for reading, has increased tenfold, and this is the best purchase i've made in years Now if you'll excuse me, i've got another book to devour!

I am so happy with my Kobo! It gives the experience of reading from an actual page of a book with the way the screen looks. It's super light so I can read laying down with ease. And my KoboPlus subscription has led me to a library full of so many great books!

I love my kobo. It is a great e reader for the cost. I had considered getting a kindle but didn't like the idea of there being ads on the home screen. Kobo was much more cost efficient and it works great. I have no complaints!

It does what I want without paying for extras like being colour which I don’t need for reading books. I have an iPad for stuff like that.

It is a fabulous way to read books. Comics too. Light, good storage, easy download, good wifi connections. Screen is very clear and bright, with flexible lighting levels and colour options. The sleep function is excellent with a sleep cover, but even without, a touch of the power button (or time out) puts it into sleep mode; wakes up quickly too. Battery usage is really quite minimal, even with the light. Over a week on a single charge, and I read a lot. Transfers via wifi are effortless, through the kobo store or libby. Downloading from computer takes a bit more effort but is still not an onerous task. I do miss the micro sd card option however, since I have a number with collected books on them. The improved water resistance is the reason for the elimination, and it is probably a good trade off. Would I recommend the Kobo Clara BW? - YES! Would I opt for a different product? If I read manga or comics possibly the colour screen, otherwise no. Should you get a Kobo Clara? If you read and want a clear non-tiring device that is lighter than a paperback, holds a small library worth of books, and lasts many days without recharging, and you can read at night, - yes. I think I'm a fan.

Had Clara HD for 7 years. The BW model has faster loading for various functions. My life would be very sad and dull without Kobo. Get most books from public library and buy some classics from Kobo at very low prices.

The Clara seems to be well made and has a great screen. I really sincerely wish they made a 7 inch black and white screen. The 6 inch is just a bit too small. My only complaint about it.

I do wish it had some games and more annotating options. However, for pure reading it's great! Super lightweight and small, I just keep it in my purse.
