But Kobo's LEDs are at the bottom. No need to side light. Amazon could have done the same thing. But instead Amazon gives you light cones.

And as they made the widest part of the bezel on the side, is is probably easier to fit them there. Plus this is also the thickest part of the bezel, so again easier to fit. But, I think the real reason is it makes it easier for flipping the screen over. If they were at the bottom, when the screen was rotated, the lights would be at the top. From comments here, I think the lights at the top would be more visible when reading. Having them on the side means they will be equally visible, or invisible, whichever way the device is help. |

with the broken glass substrate that happened to some owners of the Aura HD and H2O, you would obviously expect common sense to prevail and for Kobo to stay well clear of using a glass substrate on any new Ereader especially the larger devices like the Kobo Aura One. best wishes koboy ![]() Last edited by koboy; 08-20-2016 at 08:51 PM. |
