I\u2019m a big fan of the Kobo<\/a> e-reader line, but it\u2019s only fair that I post a link to a negative review of the Kobo Sage<\/a> by my pal Scott McNulty:<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for a premium ereader get a Kindle Oasis<\/a>. The Kobo Sage feels cheap (things that cost $300 should never produce that \u201ccreaky plastic\u201d sound under normal use) and worst of all: the page turn buttons sometimes just don\u2019t work<\/em>. Given the whole point of the device is to turn pages, that\u2019s a dealbreaker. Don\u2019t get this thing.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the official case, which can be used as a stand whilst reading, is an abomination that Kobo should just stop selling.<\/p>\n

I will say, however, that it charges via USB-C which is nice and I look forward to getting a Kindle that does the same (I\u2019m not getting another Kobo, you see).\n<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
