Is a simple, and inexpensive reader. It major disadvantage is it lacks off a backlight, that’s a feature I wish it has for reading during night time but nonetheless is awesome to read in this. Adding books is quite simple and if you are one of those homebrew guys, this little reader allows you to upgrade the internal storage with minimum effort. For me is the best and affordable reader to start your journey into reading. Obviously not everything is good, I hate to connect it to a wifi network the keypad-keyboard combination is the worst I have used. PDF reading is quite hard and it gets worst if your pdf file have images, I can say this reader supports pdf files but that’s all, if you want to get the maximum potential use only epub files and you will be more than satisfied.

I also have a Kindle, but Walmart e-books are Kobo so the price of the Kobo was OK, but I needed my computer to get the books on there and to set it up... Weird...the Kindle does not require a computer to set it up. The power cord is not the same as my phone's so I got to switch out that cord with the kobo one to charge the Kobo...the battery life of the Kobo is no where near that of my Kindle either.... So, while cheap buy, you got to have a not so cheap computer to set it up and sync it to use it...you need a special cord to power it...and the battery life is not so hot...a Kindle is a better value...but, if you want to read e-books from Walmart you got to go Kobo sadly.

Great value for money. Simple and efficient e-reader that works great and keeps things simple for the ones that just want to read a good book instead of playing with goofy gadgets. The 1 Gb capacity is more than enough. You don’t even need the SD card. Just ask yourself: How many books do you read in 6 months? If you’re a fast reader, just plug it into your computer and start swapping titles. The range of file types that it reads it’s not great. Bur just use an online converter and you’re good. The main con: sometimes it becomes really slow if you want to go up and down on pages. Conclusion: Great to read in a great price.
I bought this as a gift. I wasn't expecting too much since I didn't pay a lot for it (under $50) and refurbished. It is not a nook color and I wasn't expecting it to be, but I was pleasantly surprised. Pros: lightweight, display is easy on the eyes, long battery life with wireless off. Books can be purchased or dowloaded from other ebook stores or web sites, can check out library books online with appropriate software, infinite selection of books from the Kobo site, plus many free books to download. Downloads and sync from my reader library worked perfect, all books were added as selected. Like the sleep mode--like this,saves on battery powere in case you forget to turn it off. Cons: software glitches with wireless set up ( that could've been my pc though)--had to add my wireless network back to the reader a second time. The desktop software didnt show as installed on my pc, but then again, that could be the pc. So instead of looking for the software, I connect wirelessly with no problem or use the usb cable to transfer books from the Kobo site. I WOULD buy it again, it will make a great extra ereader to have around. Have used it a few days and the ereader is working great, no problems with the ereader at all. GOOD BUY.Read full review
So far I have been unable to use this reader, when I connect it to my laptop, I get a list of folders, including Kobo_eReader_User_Guide, which is a pdf file. But when I try to open it with Adobe, I get a message saying Adobe is unable to open it, because either it is an unsupported file type or the file has been damaged.
