Kobo’s color e-reader is a far better deal than Amazon’s new Kindle Colorsoft


Kobo’s Libra Colour is down to its best price.

You can also buy it for the same price from Rakuten Kobo, and if you purchase it with a $50 gift card, the retailer is throwing in a $10 credit that’s good toward books, styli, and audiobooks. For example, the Colorsoft’s screen appears more vibrant and neutral than that of the Kobo, and ultimately, my colleague Andrew Liszewski preferred it. The Libra Colour offers a few software perks, too, including native support for read-it-later app Pocket so you can read articles offline.
