New Kobo: Nia
Not sure if this is news or should be in the Kobo forum. If it should be moved, please feel free.
This comes from Good e-Reader, so consider the source. But: The Kobo Nia e-reader is out soon Details are non-existent. Speculation is that it will be a low end replacement for the Aura 2 or maybe the Clara. Those would make sense. If this is finally a 6" Kobo that is both waterproof and has color changing light, I'll buy it (once the first wave is out and all Kobo's usual flaws are fixed ![]() |

"Good e-Reader has exclusively learned..."

Yeah, the title is also kind of cludgy. I almost reworded it to something like "The Kobo Nia e-reader is coming soon" but I didn't want to lose that Good e-Reader flavor.

I agree with the comments there about the Clara needing a touch more bezel and grippability.
Hope this device, if it's replacing the Clara, addresses that. |

Yeah, the focus on ever smaller bezels seems like something for marketing and reviewers. People gripe about the bezels on the Nook Glowlight 3, but I love them.

Le Sigh! How many more centuries must pas before the completely fake, utterly WRONG so-called "rule" about split infinitives is abandoned by people who really should know there ain't no such thing? I impatiently wait.

Kobo Nia?
Doesn't sound quite right... If it's Goodereader, it should be the Kobo Nyah-nyah. ![]() |

Since the image used by Good e-Reader was lifted from the FCC site, very likely this a real device. As usual, they got some of it wrong such as saying a SanDisk SD card when the FCC says it's a San16GB eMMC SDSDQAB-016G.

That is a manufacture code for a SanDisk SD card. I presume the eMMC part simply means it's embedded (soldered on), which the articles does mention. |
