Kobo Aura One
Kobo Aura One is one of the largest eBook readers on the market and the screen measures 7.8-inch. Kobo has managed to preserve a pixel density of 300 dpi even though the size has increased. Hence, it's suitable e-reader if you need a large screen that displays text in a crisp manner.
This device is waterproof like the Aura H2O model and capable of storing 8 GB of content. It's also speedy by employing a 1 GHz processor and 512 MB internal memory.

Great eReader
I love reading books, and have wanted to buy a eReader for a long time, but wasn't sure whether I would enjoy it as much as a real book, so one month ago I purchased the KOBO Aura 7.8" eReader, and I am absolutely thrilled with it, no matter what light I am under, the words are crystal clear, and...

"Overall satisfied"
USB cable that come with it doesn't work. Gives surge warning on PC! Response quite slow otherwise great purchase. Sleek and bigger screen size definitely a plus

Five Stars
Excellent replacement for obsolete Nook, but battery doesn't last anywhere near as long. Still miss my Sony e-reader!

Kobo Aura One review
The price might seem off-putting at first (after all, it's possible to get a Kindle for a third of the price, if you're willing to put up with 'special offers', or £70 if you're not) but there's plenty here to justify the expense.

KOBO Aura One E-Reader 7.8" EPD with Carta Display 1872x1404 & Front Light
Extremely light despite having good build quality, and it being waterproof is amazing. Not being able to read in the bath for fear of dropping my device used to be a major advantage that physical books had over e-readers, but no more.

Perfect e-reader device for avid readers
First of all, display is one of the best. It's a almost 8 inch carta e-ink and text looks like printed on paper. It also comes with front light, which is really handy for reading in the bed.

I use -try to use- the product with bol.com in the Netherlands. It can't find books I have bought and paid for, it can't find books that are clearly there. I recommend waiting until their bugs haven been fixed
Pros:
- physical product
Cons:
- software nightmare

Kobo Aura One review
Kobo's latest premium device is the phablet of the ereader world. It feels huge in the hand, at least right now – it may be that in five years' time a 7.8-inch screen ereader will be the norm.
Pros:
- Larger
- beautiful screen
- Interesting night time reading idea
- Waterproof design
Cons:
- Hard to hold
- Expensive for some
- Lacking Amazon's store
