You can see the slight curved edge for your fingers to grip. There's also a nice textured pattern on the back. Power button's located on the back near the corner. There's a nice matte texture which is better resisting fingerprints compared to the smoother semi-glossy surface on the Kobo Sage. The page buttons near the edge are easy to reach and have good feedback. Kobo Libra 2 is available in two colours: black and white. This is more expensive at US$ 399 (SSGD 629) but pen and cover are included. It's better to have a bigger display where you don't have to zoom. You can zoom PDFs with the other Kobo eReaders but the experience is not smooth. If you want to read PDFs, the 10.3-inch Kobo Elipsa Pack is good since you can't control text size in PDFs, so having a larger display is highly recommended. Price difference is significant and even more so when you buy the pen and case. If you want to listen to audio books, I recommend Kobo Libra 2 over Kobo Sage unless you really want the larger display, pen support and battery charging case AKA PowerCover. If you just want to read, the budget Kobo Clara HD ( review) is worth the money simply because of its affordable US $119 (SGD 199) pricing. Here's the main selling points for each eReader model:
