Very light in weight, comfortable to hold in one hand. Best reader especially for people who read in bed at night times. Only con is the button to wake up and sleep is tight and requires very hard press.

Excellent fulfillment by Walmart. 5 stars to Walmart, but only 3 for Kobo reader. First complaint is the on/off button is completely unreliable. Sometimes it works, sometimes it refuses to respond. It has no tactile feedback so never sure if its being pressed hard enough or if its broken. My second reason for returning it to my local Walmart (5 stars for Walmart easy return) is That I couldnt deal with what in my opinion is quirky software.

I am very pleasantly surprised! I was hesitant to order this because of all the mixed reviews. I really love how big the screen is, this is the biggest screen I have seen to date. I couldn't stand how small my Kindle Paperwhite was. The Kobo Forma is amazing. The downside is you can't access any kindle books, however you can download epubs on your computer/phone, upload them to dropbox, and have the dropbox sync with your Kobo so you can read all the epubs on there. Also you have access to Overdrive which is nice. It is pricey but honestly so worth it. I love the way the screen looks, super easy on the eyes and doesn't strain them at all. Also everyone complaining about the power button, it's not that big of a deal lol. Doesn't bother me.

Easy to use and read with. Occasional ghost images of previous pages especially if a photo is on it. Books from my Kindle transferred easily after conversion to EPub format. Love the access to Overdrive for borrowing ebooks from libraries. Definitely recommended

Arrived in timely manner, but never worked. No chat support. Everything frozen. I returned yesterday, and I intend to reorder and give it one more try.
