Review - Kobo Aura

Okay, so maybe picking up an eReader isn’t something that’s high on the agenda of most tech savvy people these days, but there’s undoubtedly a market to be found among readers who are less concerned with the bells and whistles of devices like tablets or smartphones, and more interested in getting straight into the story with minimal fuss. It’s that demographic that Kobo is taking aim at with its new Kobo Aura, one of several new eReader devices on offer from the company this year.

Those of you who have used previous Kobo devices will be immediately impressed with how slick and stylish this latest offering is. Combining the aesthetics of your typical tablet with the functionality and superb battery life of a traditional eReader was a great move for Kobo, and it puts the Aura in a strong position right from the start.
