    Great review. Thank you.I think this eReader is in my future, even though I've been with Kindle since the very beginning.

      It's much more open. I love the kindle devices but you're very much in Amazon's walled garden.

    double tap will also convert writing to text. i ended up putting paperlike on it. makes the writing experience a little better

    Hey, thanks for the video! Already watched it twice 😅 I want to buy this Kobo as my first e-reader. I do still have a question if you don't mind, does it connect to Goodreads? Thanks for this content!! ❤️

      No Goodreads. 😢 They seem to have a deal with kindle. Bummer not to see it on Kobo.

    Great product, but the stylus is very expensive. Since the last update: if you use a cheaper different brand (which works just as well) they give you a annoying pop-up everytime you open notebook.

    • @TechItBeforeYouWreckIt
      @TechItBeforeYouWreckIt  2 месяца назад +3

      For a company that provides such Open Access, PDF and ePub documents, etc. It's kind of ridiculous that you have to deal with that just because you don't want to use their stylus.

    Can you add your own audiobooks and books? And can you read a book while listening to an audiobook?

    Hi! Thanks for the deep review
    Is it possible to export notebooks as text file, or just PDF / image file?
    (or will the PDF be a readble one that you can copy its text and paste into a word sheet?)

    Question about borrowing the book with overdrive, when you annotate write and highlight on the page does it save anywhere when it’s time to return the book?

    It would have been better in areas, for example the notebook 'demo', if you had experimented and learned it first before trying it the first time on camera saying you trying to demo it.

    weird question! can you highlight on top of a highlighted color? for pdf files on PC, i can highlight with a color on top of another highlighted color and get a color combination (ej. pink on top of yellow making orange) is that possible on the kobo libra? Also, is it possible to turn off the flashing animation/effect when refreshing or switching menu tabs? thank you SO MUCH for the clear and thorough review!! 💙📖

    Why does the screen flash black every time you tap on a function, turn a page, scroll, etc? That seems so annoying and would drive me crazy. Is that just how it is? It makes it seem glitchy.
