Kobo is hitting back with a new 6-inch e-reader with a black and white screen. Nothing new, you may ask? Well, this e-reader comes with a latest-generation E Ink Carta 1300 screen at an unbeatable price.
In addition to the high-profile releases of the Kobo Libra Colour and Kobo Clara Colour, the Kobo Clara BW arrives with little fanfare.
Kobo Clara BW: an unbeatable offer!
And yet, with its mini price of $129 (less than the previous version) and improved e-ink screen, this new Kobo has everything it takes to win over nomad readers looking for a good-value e-reader in a small format.
This e-reader innovates very little, adopting the same format as the Clara 2E, with which it shares many features.
Here are the technical specifications of the Kobo Clara BW (for Black & White):
- Latest-generation 6-inch E Ink Carta 1300 Hd screen
- 16 GB ebook storage
- ComfortLight Pro lighting (with blue light filter)
- IPX8 waterproof reading light
- Bluetooth for reading audio books
- Compatible ebook formats: EPUB, EPUB3, PDF, MOBI, JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP, TIFF, TXT, HTML, RTF, CBZ, CBR
- Wifi
- This e-reader should be easy to repair with repair kit from Kobo available
Price, availability and buying advice
Quite simply, this Kobo Clara BW is better than its predecessor, and cheaper!
It crushes the competition, offering something better than the Pocketbook Verse Pro, for example, for less money (for the moment).
This Kobo Clara BW e-reader will be available on April 30, 2024 at the recommended retail price of $129.
If you're looking for a black and white e-reader to read novels and carry around without breaking the bank, you know what you have to do!
