    Libra 2 for $216.41: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/165487730939

    • Wizard on 25/05/2023 - 13:53

      Is it hard to sideload books on to?

      • rosebank on 25/05/2023 - 13:55
        +1

        nfi idea mate, I didn't even check the specs or anything, just bought it because I don't want a Kindle

      • drycleanonly on 25/05/2023 - 13:57
        +6

        It's not really sideloading as the Kobo supports it. Just use Calibre for your books. Using your library card to rent books and magazines is excellent too.

      • kumquat on 25/05/2023 - 14:03

        Nah pretty easy, I use a free program called Caliber to transfer books.

      • kaitai on 25/05/2023 - 14:06

        Easy. You just use calibre to push them to the device, from your pc and it will also covert the format if required.

      • viirgon on 25/05/2023 - 14:17
        +3

        It also support syncing with cloud storage such as dropbox or google drive - just need to google it to find out how to configure it. I just drop the epub books to that particular folder and it will appear on the reader.

      • theguyrules on 25/05/2023 - 14:19
        +6

        You can literally just copy them on via USB, if youre too lazy for Calibre.
        Or use https://send.djazz.se/ which is what I do the most.

      • opti on 25/05/2023 - 14:32

        Easiest thing in the world to sideload, its made to do it. Don't need any software, just plug it into your pc/mac and it will pop up like a usb drive, and copy over.

        Can open many formats, and also will view images and comic books that are in CBR,CBZ if that's your thing

        • techno2000 on 25/05/2023 - 15:03
          +3

          You can even run the content server on calibre and just start the browser on Kobo with a particular address and voila all the books on Calibre will be visible to download.

      • Dsiee on 26/05/2023 - 07:30

        Super easy, they just come up as thumb drives.

  • bananabendera on 25/05/2023 - 13:15

    Love my Libra 2 that I got for about $250

    • rosebank on 25/05/2023 - 13:18

      I don't even know why I bought one. My last ereader was a Nook

      • frondono on 25/05/2023 - 13:22
        +1

        apparently you can hook it up to your local library, and also side load books in epub and mobi formats.

        • rosebank on 25/05/2023 - 13:34

          I have a shitload of epubs. Didn't know about the library thing though, thanks.

          I thought this would have a micro sd slot; 32gb is plenty for epubs, but makes the audiobook function kinda useless

          • kumquat on 25/05/2023 - 14:09

            @rosebank: Yeah, the interface might be a bit slow for Audiobook. A phone will do a much better job.

    • theguyrules on 25/05/2023 - 13:22

      Yeah, I am a big fan of mine too. I upgraded from the Libra H2O due to USB-C charging and the better contrast.

    • rosebank on 25/05/2023 - 13:53

      What cover are you using? Or is it rugged enough to go naked?

        Mines naked, its fine.

        • rosebank on 25/05/2023 - 14:23

          (profanity) it imma go naked

          • theguyrules on 25/05/2023 - 14:24
            +3

            @rosebank: It's nice IMO.

            I just make sure I put it in the laptop/tablet section of my backpack when travelling.
            Actually, last time I just threw it in the top section of my luggage. It's perfectly fine.

            • rosebank on 25/05/2023 - 14:26

              @theguyrules: Perfect, cheers

              • bananabendera on 26/05/2023 - 12:07

                @rosebank: Yeah I go naked, when I chuck it in a bag though I put it in the cardboard box it came in, it's pretty slim. Partner put it in a beach bag once without the box and ended up with a few very distracting scratches on the screen, but I've gotten used to it

      • kumquat on 25/05/2023 - 14:12

        The foldable sleep cover is great as a stand. If you're going to get a cover best to get the foldable one over the standard one.

        • rosebank on 25/05/2023 - 14:16

          I'll be travelling soon so a cover would be a good idea, thanks.

      • Ryballs on 25/05/2023 - 17:48
        +1

        I recommend the cover. The screen is just plastic so fairly easy to scratch. Also it's convenient to be able to put the Libra to sleep just by closing it.

      • Ostrk on 25/05/2023 - 21:12
        +1

        I'm using this and it's okay. Wakes up and goes to sleep by opening/closing just fine. Didn't want to spend so much on a kobo cover and I had a coupon which made it like 10 bucks.

        • rosebank on 26/05/2023 - 08:42

          Thanks, grabbed the green one to try.

  • spicychic on 25/05/2023 - 13:40

    I've had a Libra 2 a few months and so far have read half of Prince Harry's book, Spare.
    I've put it down after that and not touched it since.

    • Spamazon on 25/05/2023 - 16:03

      Read a better book.

    • kumquat on 26/05/2023 - 10:17

      So your Kobo is now a spare?

  • miasommers on 25/05/2023 - 14:49

    This or a kindle paper white? (I know how to use calibre!)

    • techno2000 on 25/05/2023 - 14:54
      +4

      This!

      I have the older Kobo Libra H2O and also Kindle paperwhite and prefer the Kobo.

    • viirgon on 25/05/2023 - 14:59
      +4

      This - for the page turning buttons.

    • tichet18 on 25/05/2023 - 17:14

      I was in the same boat. Went with the PW in the end - usually bought books from the Amazon store, the processor in the PW is significantly faster, and I could read my books on any device if I didn't have my Kindle.

      Those were the things that persuaded me in the end.

  • Munki on 25/05/2023 - 15:14

    I have the H2O and my son has the Libra 2. Wife and daughter have the Kindle Paperwhite. I much prefer these to load books onto rather than having to use Calibre (not that Calibre is really difficult or anything).

  • kulprit on 25/05/2023 - 15:46

    Which is the best for borrowing direct from a library. I think kindle is pretty crap for that but works with the Kobo's?

    • theguyrules on 25/05/2023 - 15:51
      +5

      Kobo, yes. Has Overdrive built into the Kobo itself and you can also use ie Libby on your phone and have it sync.

    • 367 on 25/05/2023 - 19:52
      +3

      Kindle can’t borrow from library in Australia. Kobo can.

  • Cousin IT on 25/05/2023 - 16:06

    Anyone know if you can highlight text and make notes with these? Thanks

    • theguyrules on 25/05/2023 - 16:42

      Yep you definitely can.

  • techdave on 25/05/2023 - 16:32

    Is storage only 2GB for the Libra 2? Or is it a typo on both ebay pages listed above?

  • Tryfirst on 25/05/2023 - 16:45

    Ebay says 2GB, but 2GB now seems too small.

  • skitzo12 on 25/05/2023 - 16:46

    Bought this for 279 2 years and it was well worth it.

    Get Calibre and a USB cord and you've got an infinite amount of books to read.

    • ohyesss on 25/05/2023 - 18:41

      What are the steps between Calibre and USB cord?
      I can't PM you to ask a more detailed question

  • RolandWaites on 25/05/2023 - 17:05

    Got the Libra 2 for Christmas after much umming and ahhing.

    Absolutely a great move. If you're a regular reader, you won't regret it.

  • heal on 25/05/2023 - 23:07

    It is costing me about $14 a month for Amazon books for my son. Considering you can borrow library books with the Kobo, should I ditch the Kindle Paperwhite and get this?

    • 367 on 26/05/2023 - 00:17
      +3

      It's worth joining your library first and looking at what they have available and how long the wait times are. Sometimes there's a long wait to get popular books.

      • mightyhawks23 on 26/05/2023 - 10:11

        I've read that you aren't limited to just your local library. Most other council libraries can join online so you have a much wider range of books to borrow but I've never tried…
        I'm in the same boat weighing up to move from the Kindle to Kobo

  • Wonderfool on 26/05/2023 - 08:24

    Every day, I want an e-ink reader. But also every day, I realise I don't read that much, it's mostly audiobook and Reddit threads lol.

    • bgbrendan on 26/05/2023 - 18:10

      Yeah I know the feel, my e-reader needs replacing but I told myself I wouldn't unless I actually start reading more frequently

    Kobo Libra 2 or Boox Leaf 2?

    Tried surfing the web for some comparisons but not having much luck.
    I'd to copy PDF books onto the device and have the option to use various sources like Kindle, Google Play Books etc…

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you 🫡
