The latter is double that of its Clara HD predecessor, and is definitely welcome for loading non-text materials like manga and comics onto the device. Under the hood, the Clara 2E has a 1GHz dual-core processor, 512MB of RAM, and 16GB of built-in storage. I found this outlook attractive as it made the entire set-up feel even more like paper, while reducing glare. The Clara 2E is designed with a sunken screen and protruding bezels. Glass would have increased glare under sun, and made the display less pin-sharp.

While the better contrast is welcome, response time improvements are less meaningful.

The screen here is a E Ink Carta 1200 panel running at 1,448 x 1,072 resolution, giving 300 pixels-per-inch display density. A ribbed, matte design makes the Clara 2E comfortable to hold. This e-book reader will be among the lightest and most portable that you can find on the market. The Clara 2E comes in at 112 x 159 x 8.66 mm, and weighs 171 grams. Its back has a ribbed texture for a better grip, and while the colourway is described as dark blue, can look rather close to black. The Clara 2E has a body that feels well-made and sufficiently rugged for a day out to the beach. It has a 6-inch screen with 300 pixels per inch resolution, 16GB of storage, IPX8 water resistance that can handle an hour underwater, and a body made out of 85 percent recycled plastics.Īs with other Kobo e-book readers, one big selling point for Singapore users is OverDrive, which lets you directly connect to, and borrow, e-books available on the National Library Board (NLB) catalogue.Īt first glance, the device bears obvious similarities to the Kindle series, not that there is anything wrong. I recently tried out Kobo Clara 2E, a S$219.90 (on Kobo’s Singapore store) e-book reader from Japanese retail giant Rakuten. The units carry a 3 Months Warranty for Peace of Mind.When it comes to e-ink tablets – where the readout you get is crisp like print on paper, and without the glare of an LCD screen – there are decent, competitive options beyond a well-known Amazon Kindle. The unit will be supplied in its original retail packaging or will have been professionally plain boxed. These Units are Ex Demo Display units from a major retailer and in immaculate ( A+ Grade ) condition with little or no signs of use but may have a VERY minor buff or scuff on the casing due to handling.
