Nia seems pretty much official now

I'm a bit disappointed, I was expecting a Forma refresh this year. |

Yeah there’s a thread on the nia https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=329093
I don’t think anyone was questioning if it was official or if it was going to be a 6 inch device for quite awhile now. What with the FCC filings and cases being posted earlier. |

That looks very similar to the Glo HD (but less PPI than the Glo HD). The screen looks recessed, I wonder if it's capacitive touch or infrared. I also love that they went back to the subtle KOBO logo in just shiny black, how it is on the Glo HD. I dislike the white lettering on the black bezel, I had it on the original Glo and I just find it distracting.
Even if infrared though, it won't tempt me to upgrade from the Glo HD, especially after I swapped out the internal SDcard for a 32GB size, because of the lesser PPI. I wonder if that'll be doable on the new model. It might do if my Glo HDs someday die. |

I don't get it, the Nia is 130$ CDN and the Clara HD is 140$ CDN, what's the point...

Multiple threads almost always happen between this sub-forum and the news sub-forum when a new kobo is going through the FCC etc. I suspect we'll have yet another thread there when the Nia actually launches. |
