Kobo Aura ONE eReader
Kobo has a
new eReader on the way, and it’s a 7.8 inch model with premium specs. The Kobo
Aura ONE will likely compete with Amazon’s Kindle Voyage and Kindle Oasis in
the premium eReader space.
The new eReader features
a 7.8 inch, 1872 x 1404 pixel illuminated Carta E Ink touchscreen display with
300 pixels per inch. That means the Kobo Aura ONE is larger than any of
Amazon’s current eReaders, but it has the same pixel density, which means text
should look just as crisp.
The device measures 7.6″
x 5.5″ x 0.67″ and weighs less than 9 ounces. It has a waterproof case, a micro
USB cable, and 802.11b/g/n WiFi support. Under the hood, it features 512MB of
RAM and 8GB of storage. Kobo says it should get up to a month of battery life.
