I got my libra 2 and am pretty happy with everything. Libra H2O on the left, Libra 2 on the right Libra H2O on top, Libra 2 below - mostly the same, except for USB-C :) White background, natural lighting (brightness turned off) - no noticeable difference (Left : 2, Right : H2O)īlack background, natural lighting (brightness turned off) (Left : 2, Right : H2O) White background, yellow light (Left : H2O, Right : 2)īlack background, white light (Left : H2O, Right : 2)īlack background, yellow light (Left : H2O, Right : 2) White background, white light (Left : H2O, Right : 2) *Note that the Libra 2 is now on the left, and the Libra H2O is on the right in the new pictures. The black feels more black on the Libra 2, while it feels more "white" in a way with the Libra H2O. ![]() In a lighting condition like this, the difference feels less stark than with the brightness turned on (and being in the dark), but it's still a bit noticeable. I added more photos to compare both models, and took pictures under some natural lighting (brightness turned off) to try to better show the difference of contrast. The luminosity was set at 100% in all pictures, and either completely white (knob to the left) or completely yellow (knob all to the right). For the first four pictures, the Libra H2O is on the left, the Libra 2 is on the right. So here are pictures comparing them side-by-side : White background with white and yellow light, then black background with white and yellow light. However, the screen doesn't seem all that faster - the refreshes seem to be quicker but when having the same book opened and going forward with the buttons at the same fast pace (like 1-2 pages per second), the Libra 2 would get an edge but then somehow the H2O would catch up.The buttons are a bit better, less clicky, more "roundy" feeling.The blacks are infinitely better, very great contrast - I used to invert the screen of my Libra H2O to read in bed, it was working totally alright, but the screen really did improve on this (I now understand why they officially support "Dark mode" on the Libra 2).The lighting is better imo, the yellow/orange tint is much more yellow/orange than before and that's nice.I'll have to see if it negatively impacts long reading sessions, but from this I'm pretty sure I won't snap a case on it, I'll rather use a traveling pouch or something The Libra 2 definitely feels more "chunky", like it's heavier and thicker.I haven't had time yet to really use the new Libra 2, but so far I can easily tell a few differences : I thought I'd might as well get the new one, compare and return either one. So I got the Libra H20 less than a month ago : a week after I bought it, Kobo announced the refreshed model.
