Kobo Libra vs Nook GlowLight

The Kobo Libra is a 7-inch e-reader with a fast screen, ergonomic design (with physical rewind buttons), wealth of features, customizable look (thanks to the attractive SleepCover color options), and ample storage for all your e-books. The screen is always glare-free, unlike your smartphone or tablet. Dark mode offers a choice of white text on a black background and the landscape orientation in the reading mode is also available. The Kobo Libra supports Kobo audiobooks via Bluetooth wireless technology.

Nook Glowlight is B&N's flagship model. It's a basic 6" reader with 300-dpi touchscreen with built-in glare- scratch- and fingerprint-resistant lens provides a paper-like reading experience. As the name says, it features GlowLight illumination, powerful enough to read in bed or in the bright light of the sun. You can manually adjust the warmth of the light or set it to mimic the natural progression of the sun automatically. The device has a comfortable design. Soft-touch finish makes it easy to grip and comfortable to hold. It’s can work for weeks on a single charge and syncs with NOOK Reading App for iPhone and Android, so you can pick up a book right where you left off. The digital discovery feature (B&N Readouts) serves up a daily selection of free book excerpts, magazine articles, curated blogs, and more.
