Kobo has COLOR now | Kobo Clara Colour Unboxing 

I believe kobo has their own audiobook service that's cheaper than Amazons

Kobo do sell audiobooks on their platform, and it's not a confusing subscription thing!

We Americans are happy we deserve color e readers you aussie just like you we are catered..🤷🏾‍♀️😤

Just like you aussies we DESERVE color e readers thank you very much🤷🏾‍♀️👍

@@Bay5922 I never said you didn’t deserve colour ereaders…. I just said I love how I’ve never once seen an American explain or justify their spelling of color in any video yet anyone who spells it differently (which is most of the English speaking world) seems to feel the need to explain or justify their spelling because Americans spell it differently. Just something I’ve noticed in this overly US-centric world is all 🤷🏼‍♀️

You could also say it's the English spelling

because the difference between the Big Three and the #4 spot is staggering.

lmao at the implication that quebecois people are civilized

We have mentioned the big 3 for nearly 10 years It's a term to describe the 3 largest players in eink: Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and kobo

@@goodereader I haven’t watched your videos for the past 10 years. Thanks for the response.

Study up please

A refresh of the Ellipsa would be something to wait for

Yes

Triton was the first.

Nice!

If you have the Pocketbook color 3 then just be happy with it. I was saving up to get one but when the Kobo colors were released, I never hit preorder this fast. Kobo Libra Color is cheaper than 100 dollars than Inkpad Color 3 and owning the Kobo Touch, I know I'm going to be happy with the simplistic UI. I have read from a reddit post that his Libra Color is sharper than his Inkpad Color 3 but for me it doesn't matter much, just get the cheaper between the two since right now these are the best Kaleido 3 devices out in the market

One of the benefits of this one, is the screen is sunken, and the Kaleido 3 layer is at the top of the stack, so colours are better.

While I agree PWM-driven is generally less desirable than continuous-current-driven, discarding PWM entirely without talking about the PWM frequency is too reducing. An LED with a continuous current source instead of a PWM source still generates pulsed light because its photons have a fixed power level. It's just that with a continuous current source, the electrons accumulation and recombination + photon emission cycle happens at the ideal frequency, emitting a single photon each time the charge reaches the required band gap level. So a current-driven LED works similarly to a PWM-driven LED, but at its ideal frequency to make the photons emission perfectly evenly spaced. A PWM backlight is therefore a less ideal source, because its frequency cannot reach the ideal frequency because of other physical limitations, but how worse it is depends on its frequency, it's not a clear current versus PWM comparison, it's a gradient going from current-driven to low frequency PWM. Basically one PWM isn't the same as another PWM, a fast PWM can be closer to a continuous-current than to a slow PWM. You should always check the frequency of a PWM-driven LED before judging it.

​@@PhMajerus OK, thanks for the detailed explanation. As an owner of MacBook(s) @117k+ Hz PWM-driven LEDs (2021, 2022 YOP), I feel like I'd probably have my eyes wasted already if I wasn't using my very old Acer monitor with current-driven LEDs... Yes, there are definitely other factors, like blue light emission (MacBook seems to be doing a lot of trickery with the blue LEDs and violet polarizing films and violet anti-glare layer), so probably there's more than PWM effects alone, IDK - the point is the difference is huge. As a consumer, the whole idea of e-ink, its USP is no backlight at all, no flickering. Here it's being challenged with backlight (because color e-ink displays are all still greyish, probably?). Why shouldn't I continue using my cheapest 11" tablet (45 b*cks) with moderate to no issues to my eyes... So, the only thing I'd like to get clarified anyway - *if there is PWM (+ frequency), and if it's possible to turn it off completely, 0%...*
