Breaking the monotony of black-and-white eReading experiences, Rakuten Kobo unveils its pioneering colour E Ink eReaders, the Kobo Libra Colour and Kobo Clara Colour, setting a new standard for digital reading.
Both the Kobo Libra Colour and Kobo Clara Colour feature Kobo-optimized colour E Ink Kaleido™ 3 displays, offering readers a subtle yet vibrant palette while retaining the beloved benefits of E Ink technology. With the capacity to store thousands of books, extended battery life, and seamless access to the Kobo.com bookstore and OverDrive for library borrowing, these eReaders empower booklovers to curate their digital libraries wherever they go. Moreover, equipped with Bluetooth® wireless technology, users can easily enjoy Kobo Audiobooks on the go.
For avid journalers and note-takers, the Kobo Libra Colour introduces an innovative feature, becoming Kobo’s most affordable stylus-enabled eReader with the addition of the Kobo Stylus 2 (sold separately). This allows users to engage in colour handwriting, highlighting, and notebook creation, elevating the reading experience to new heights.
In line with Kobo's commitment to sustainability, the Kobo Libra Colour and Kobo Clara Colour incorporate repairability features and utilize eco-conscious materials, including recycled and ocean-bound plastics. The devices also come with SleepCovers made from recycled materials, available in a range of vibrant colours.
The Kobo Clara BW, an upgraded version of the classic black-and-white eReader, offers an enhanced reading experience with the latest E Ink Carta 1300 screen, improved processor, and increased storage capacity.
The new eReaders are set to revolutionize the reading experience with their innovative features, eco-friendly design, and robust performance. Pre-orders for these devices will be available starting April 10, with availability slated for April 30, 2024, across various global markets.
