    Some better, some worse

    The orange lighting is a marked improvement over the broken Kobo Glo it replaces. On the other hand, the back of the Glo was nicer and gave a better grip. The back of the Clara HD is made of a poorly made plastic and tends to slip out of your hands, hence the missing star.

    Inadmissible - Reading machine breaks down just after the warranty

    Unacceptable, reader bought in 2018 and kept in a case all the time and never dropped. 4 months after the 2 year warranty ended, the screen broke down (more precisely it is separated into 4 parts, and 3 of those 4 parts are frozen, only one works). I have tried everything in terms of resetting and, after doing some research, it seems that it is necessary to change the screen.
    So a component fails just after the warranty expires.
    LDLC is of no help, except to tell you that they can't do anything and are sorry.
    To be avoided.

    everything is perfect, too bad it's a 6p

    I'm a loyal Kobo customer, and I think I've tried them all. With some ups and downs, this reader is part of the "high" panel, its reactivity surprises me compared to my Aura One, which has not yet given up the ghost, and I bought this reader as a "backup" following a promotion, and I have absolutely no regrets if it is not the size of 6 inches (after it is a standard, but I am also a little old (well my eyes)
    The definition and the comfort of the Litepro, the opening to almost all formats, make this reader perfect, I take away 2 stars, not for the product but for my eyes! So it's really worth 10/10.

    Very Satisfactory

    It does a good job of being a reader, with some good ergonomics and some useful options. After that, I find it a bit expensive for its size.

    good little reader

    The book arrived in Reunion in record time! I didn't have to pay any extra taxes.
    The Kobo Clara HD is everything I needed, not too big, responsive, automatic lighting with yellow light so as not to tire the eyes.
    I have been a LDLC customer for years and am very satisfied with their reliability.

    Good product

    In the continuity of the previous models.
    However, we regret the lack of completion of the Internet browser.
