Kobo Libra H2O review
Test scoreShow Context
- 7 inches
- Screen light
- Waterproof
The Libra H2O is a direct replacement to the Kobo Aura H2O, priced at £150, and is also waterproof. It has a large, 7-inch screen and physical page-turn buttons, which its predecessor lacked. We’ve run it through our full lab test – which includes a durability and waterproofing challenge – to see whether it’s worth the price.
