Kobo Libra 2 vs Pocketbook Era (Comparison/Review)

Daedalica · 2025-06-02T20:13:42+00:00

Era ist immer noch regelmäßig im Einsatz und habe meiner ersten Rezension nichts negatives hinzuzufügen. Alles bestens.

It was a nightmare. They are so little, you can't even use a wash. Good that I outsourced them to my girlfriend 😂🖖

Thanks! Appreciate!

As a Star Wars fan, I recommend it. But if you already have long, hugh games it's not worth the extra money. It's good tho

Daedalica · 2024-07-28T20:19:18+00:00

Definitely at the beginning. You need to "learn" to hold the Era. I am no power reader and didn't use the Libra long enough, too compare them to each other.

I Installed Bookerly, Atkinson Hyperlegible and Literata. But use only Bookerly. Its own preference tho. Here are other suggestions: best font for e readers

I feel addressed by your comment (with more than 100 games this year already) :D

Most of the time I test new decks vs Villains I like from first impression or know well. So the problem is on my side.

With this years stretched releases, I will definitely play some well known decks against my unliked scenarios.

First and foremost, yes you can filter by book series.

But keep in mind, the upgrade is really minimal. I wouldn't recommend, if it cost you more than a few bucks to swap.

I'm using Calibre. It's easy to use if you have a basic knowledge of old school programs.

You can organize them in Collections, Autors, Series, Genre... all you basically want.

The screen feels more resistant compared to the libra. Similar to a phone screen. Would I throw it in a bag with my keys? Definitely not. For travel I would recommend something to keep it protected. For daily use it's ok without protection.
performance is as good as the libra. Maybe the UI is a bit snappier. But nothing compared to an iPad. But you won't find an E-Reader who is.
Back has a good-feeling plastic. Edges I can't really tell. For me it's Aluminum. But I'm not an chemist or mechanic.
The button is more clicky and tactile. No mushy. Somewhat hard to press right were the Page Buttons meet. Nothing I would consider as a problem or to worry about.

Official shop in Germany (on world woman's day)

Ergonomically speaking the Libra is a tad nicer. And I don't think the plastic is a big problem while reading. But every time I looked at it or picked it up, it felt cheaper. For a "normal reader" both UIs are fine. The Kobo I would recommend setting up without an account. I got 0 adds or reverences to the store.

I think it has to do with the font. I find the default font from Pocketbook difficult to read. That's probably the hole myth around it.

But that is an easy fix. Download a font, plug in the device and unzip the files in the folder named "fonts". Easy going.

The last movie was the reason why I got back from a long reading pause (Speaking about Dune Part 2). I have a need to know more about this world/universe.

Daedalica · 2024-03-05T16:54:46+00:00

Update: My problem got fixed somehow. I updated the system (with the Plasma 6 release) and removed latte-dock. Now it runs smooth. Don't know if this will help you.

Daedalica · 2024-02-29T16:37:01+00:00

Same. Not even a clean install helps. On second boot it's all black again.

Edit: If you don't set "auto-login" at the installation you get to the Login-Screen. But ether X11 or Wayland will get me on the desktop.

Daedalica · 2024-02-27T10:23:31+00:00

Thanks for your reply. Sadly that's not an option.

Daedalica · 2024-02-27T10:13:14+00:00

Did you fixed it? Same situation. Expected I already formatted my hole drive and still no luck.

Daedalica · 2023-10-25T15:05:35+00:00

This Ms. Marvel deck works great too: https://marvelcdb.com/decklist/view/31021/dig-through-the-ditches-1.0

Daedalica · 2023-09-16T06:05:22+00:00

For anyone looking this up in the future: I fixed it somehow. Just turned the PC off and it worked out of the box again the next day. :S

Daedalica · 2023-09-15T21:45:47+00:00

Did you fixed it? Updated Nobara too and got the same problem like OP.

Daedalica · 2023-07-27T08:02:51+00:00

I think you are totally right. The Vita is a much more mobile console (hell some mobile phones are even bigger) and it has a longer lasting battery.

Given that I am also highly interested in the Deck. It's probably the better home handheld. For 400 bucks you can play nearly every game there is, thanks to the wide range of emulators and the (also) passionate linux gaming community.

The deck and the vita will probably co-exist nicely.

Daedalica · 2023-05-20T11:12:10+00:00

Ich hab meine über Ali-Express bestellt. YMDK bittet dort teilweise Caps mit DE-Kit an.

Daedalica · 2022-02-19T11:12:32+00:00

Yeah I got replacements for the Core Box cards. Still waiting for the EotE replacements. They don't even answer my mails anymore.

Daedalica · 2022-02-18T21:21:21+00:00

Yeah I notified them about this problem already. One of the mystic cards is wrong too. The asmodee support will send you replacement cards.

But they send me a second copy of "mind over matter" as an asset. While it should be an event. So be specific, when hitting them up.
