Kobo has Pocket integration, so you can deliver blog articles and news to read later. You tend to find better quality books, although the platform does not have audiobooks, like the Kindle does. Kobo is a more traditional book retailer, they just sell ebooks, and have less titles written by indie authors, resulting in a more fluid experience. If you live in the US, you can send library ebooks directly to the Kindle. Kindle Freetime and Unlimited are also two subscription based platforms and Prime Reading provides a number of free ebooks per month. Amazon also has a larger store and more content, although a lot of it is from indie authors, whose ebooks are questionable at best. It also has GoodReads as a navigation option, so you can partake in a social community centered around books. The UI is better designed and has system wide dark mode.

The Oasis has the advantage in the software experience. These devices are about even in this department. Rakuten says its HZO Protection gives the Kobo Libra H2O water resistance an IPX8 rating, the Oasis has the exact same waterproofing system.

There are no extra storage options for the Libra, but the Forma has the same as the Kindle. The Libra is packing a Freescale Solo Lite 1GHZ processor, 8GB of internal storage and 512 MB of RAM. There are two storage models, 8GB and 32GB, in addition to WIFI only or WIFI and LTE internet access. The Oasis employs a Freescale/NXP IMX7 dual core 1 GHZ processor, 512 MB of RAM. I have noticed that glass screens normally provide a better front-lit experience. The Kindle provides a better lighting system because the glass screen contains all of the LED lights, resulting in more even light distribution. The Kobo has 19 LED lights, 10 white, 9 amber. It has 25 LED lights total, 12 white and 13 amber. The Oasis 3 is the first Amazon Kindle that has both a front-lit display and a color temperature system to mute the bright white screen. The Kobo page turn buttons are raised and have torque when you press down. The design is a hardened plastic, this is one of the ways Kobo has cut costs. The screen is not flush with the bezel, instead it has a small recess.

The Libra also features a 7 inch E Ink Carta HD display with a resolution of 1,680 x 1,264 and 300 PPI. The screen is made of glass and the body is made of high grade aluminum and there are capacitive touchscreen page turn buttons on the side of the screen. The Kindle Oasis 3 features a 7 inch E Ink Carta HD capacitive touchscreen display with a resolution of 1680 x 1264 and 300 PPI.

If you like to read at night, we will also evaluate the front-lit display and color temperature system.

KOBO H2O VS KINDLE MANUAL

Both of these ebook readers feature the same asymmetrical design and have manual page turn buttons, although the Oasis are indented on the side of the screen, taking a capacitive touchscreen approach, whereas Kobo has raised ones. The third generation Kindle Oasis is Amazon’s flagship e-reader and the recently announced Kobo Libra H2O can be considered their midrange edition.
