11/11/2023 0 Comments Kobo vs kindle vs nookAmazon’s library of content is vast, and its self-publishing program for ebooks means there are many low-cost ebooks exclusive to its store. The Kindle uses Amazon’s proprietary format, and the DRM on its ebooks is stricter. Winner: Kindle Voyage (barely) Buying/Loading ebooks and DRM The Voyage could be the most powerful of the three, but they all do what they need to do. The Kobo Aura H2O also seems to perform at the same level. While Amazon promises that the Voyage is “20 percent faster,” our review determined there was no noticeable difference between the Voyage and the Paperwhite. In our last battle of the ebook readers, we noted that that Nook and the Kindle Paperwhite had similar performance, though the Paperwhite came out a bit ahead. We suppose it comes down to whether you find yourself reading more often in a coffee shop or in the bath. Winner: Kindle Voyage, though if you lead an active lifestyle, the Aura H2O will probably serve your needs better. You can take the Aura to the beach or a pool and not have to worry about water or sand ruining the device. The smooth design of the Aura is completed by a flap that covers the charging port and MicroSD slot. The Aura H2O, as its name would suggest, has one feature that neither of the other competitors provide: It’s waterproof. Both devices feel good to hold in hand for extended periods of time, and both strive for a seamless design, with the Kindle just slightly edging out the Aura in that regard. The power button on the Voyage is located on the back, making it easy to reach for while holding it like a book. The lack of buttons may seem nice at first - After all, with a touch screen, who needs buttons? However, it can make it difficult to flip through pages say, when you’re holding the Nook with one hand. The Kindle Voyage’s buttons allow you to turn the page with a simple press of the thumb.īoth the Voyage and the Aura H2O have slick designs, although the bezel on the Aura is more prominent. The Nook GlowLight’s design is fairly plain, with a compact form and no buttons.
