Your first audiobook is free.and yours to keep, even if you cancel.Įach month you get a credit for $9.99 monthly credit. The service is $9.99 per month in the US and the monthly cost varies by country. Kobo is launching their own monthly audiobook subscription service. I am thinking that it may be a good candidate for a backup eInk reader. Personally, I am going to be watching the reviews on this one carefully. Since I bought my Oasis, trying to read on the Kobo Aura One has been harder for me because I really, really miss the page turn buttons.
I also buy books on sale through the Google Play store which require Adobe Digital editions to download. Mostly, I use my Kobo Aura One for library books (some books are only available in an epub format and can’t be borrowed on the Kindle). The Kobo Forma is available for pre-order now and will be released on October 23, 2018. Price for the Forma is $279.99, which is $50 more than the Aura One’s $229.99 price tag. The 32 Gb version of the device will only initially be availabe in Japan, with other countries to follow at a later, unspecified date. The Forma sleep cover is priced at $49.99. The design is Similar to the original Origami covers Amazon offered for some of their e-readers and Fire tablets. There is an interesting Kobo sleep cover for the Forma. The new hardware also features a gyro so the device can be used either right or left handed as well as in landscape and portrait modes. The back of the Forma is flat and, instead, the buttons are placed on an angled section that is slightly thicker than the rest of the device. The Forma has added physical page turn buttons. There are a couple of important features that differentiate the Kobo Forma from other devices in the Kobo lineup. (**Dependent on library participation: Overdrive is available through public libraries in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.) Like the rest of Kobo’s e-reader line up, the Kobo Forma features integration with Rakuten’s Overdrive system for libraries.The Kindle Oasis, on the other hand, has an adjustable light sensor, but does not reduce blue light.

The Kobo Forma and the Aura One both feature Kobo’s ComfortLight PRO lighting which reduces blue-light exposure for the best nighttime reading.At 197 grams, the Kobo Forma is lighter than both the Kobo Aura One and the Kindle Oasis.Like the Aura One, the Forma is IPX8 rated and is immersible up to 60 minutes in 2 meters of fresh water.The new Kobo Forma features an eight inch display, which is larger than both the Aura One (7.8 inches) and the Kindle Oasis (7 inches).The Kobo Forma, (Kobo’s answer to the Kindle Oasis) takes blends features of the Kobo Aura One with some of the popular features from Amazon’s high-end e-reader. Kobo is releasing a new premium e-reader and I have one (excited) word to say: BUTTONS!!!!
