Kobo Glo

Kobo Glo

Kobo Glo cost me €130. The light is pretty balanced, some people say it's got a blueish hue but I wouldn't have noticed until I read people pointing it out. It's perfect for reading during bedtime but the light comes in handy too when reading in dim light. And even during the day, turning the light on at the lowest setting makes reading easier. 

Specs: Touch Screen, flick or tap to change the page, WIFI, internet browser, many settings for font, text-size, margins and line-spacing. PDF viewing is not very good, but then again most e-book readers have problems with PDF files. 

Overall opinion: I'm very happy with it. The only reason why I'd go for any other e-reader would be if I wanted to get a Kobo Aura which has a slightly bigger screen and higher screen resolution.
