I went along to the launch of Kobo’s new eReader at Millbank Tower in London tonight. Kobo launched their new eReader: The Kobo Aura HD. It is the most advanced HD eReader, has a 30% larger reading surface and it’s design was inspired by, wait for it, paper books. It has the most paper-like E Ink display. Kobo did a lot of research into just what their customers wanted and the Aura is it. It is an eReader for people who love books and reading. It is a beautiful device. Very elegant and easy to use.

The Aura is lightweight and easy to hold. Kobo are calling it the ‘eReader, re-imagined’. It is elegant and has high resolution, 265 DPI. It has 4GB of storage and one charge equals two months of battery life. It also has 20% faster page turning.

In stores April 25. RRP £139.99. You can pre-order from later today.
