@marypivin Could you tell me if when you hold the phone in your hand the cover is slippery or grippy? Thanks for the answer you can give me

Hi 😊The Elite case has a grip feature, while the Tough case does not have any specific grip feature. Both cases are amazing, but if you need more grip, go with the Elite case. Hope this helps!

Are the letters not as black or crisp on the libra colour vs the kindle paperwhite? Some reviewers mention that for pure text, the letters on the black & white ereader are crisper.
@marypivin16 күн бұрын
Hi! Yes, there is indeed a difference in the crispiness coming from the Paperwhite Signature Edition. However, I don’t see the difference anymore; it is very subtle. I never reach for my Kindle anymore. You would have to hold them side by side to notice it, I feel like.

@AlexSedevieАй бұрын
Hi Mary, great video! I have watched so many reviews, but your comparison to the Kindle experience is perfect for what I was looking for. I have a super specific question I haven't been able to find an answer to... what happens if you annotate a library book that is returned to the library/removed from your device? Do you get to keep the annotations on the device, or do they get wiped with the book? P.S. Your dog in the background... SO cute. I had to pause, because I don't want to miss the device, but I wanted to appreciate your sweet pup, too. 😂
@marypivinАй бұрын
Hi ☺️ Thank you for your comment, it really made my day, and thank you so much for the lovely words about my dog! 🐶😊 I'm so glad you found the comparison helpful. Regarding your question about annotating library books: from what I've researched, you don't get to keep the annotations once the loan is returned. Unfortunately, the notes are tied to the specific copy of the book and get wiped when the book is removed from your device. Have a great day!!

Great review. I am also Canadian, from Vancouver. I had to return a Kindle Paperwhite as I realized that it was not compatible with the Libby app, already on my phone.

Something else to consider: Kobo devices support .epub ebooks natively, Kindles do not. Calibre makes this less of an issue but with Kobo you can literally drag and drop your DRM free ebooks without the need of conversions. I love the Kindle as a device but them pushing their store so hard in the homescreen and not supporting open standards is unacceptable to me. I'm looking for a Kobo now, just not sure which to get (Libra Colour, Clara BW or Clara Colour...) The Drive integration seems extremely convenient too, I wish they also put that on the Clara devices, really shitty that they don't.
