Both readers have 300 ppi, which is more than enough to make the text look sharp.

The most visible new feature is the screen, which is the latest Carta 1200 E Ink display. At $260 and $180 the Sage and Libra 2 aren’t cheap, though I think at least the latter is worth considering if you use an e-reader regularly and like audiobooks and Pocket. The main differences between the two new readers is size most of the other features are the same. The devices are successors to the Forma and Libra H2O, the forma of which (forgive me) has been my daily driver since I cracked the screen of my beloved Boox Poke 3.

But the new capabilities may be worth the upgrade, and the Libra 2 especially makes for an attractive little package. The latest pair of e-readers from Kobo provide a modest but noticeable upgrade to the display, stylus support and Bluetooth for listening to audiobooks but take a step down in build quality from the admirable Forma.
