The Kobo Touch is a smaller, lighter and slightly more compact e-reader than other similar products. Its minimal, well-integrated composition can provide more portability and a better social experience — sometimes exceeding the performance levels of other devices available.
Design of the Kobo Touch
The simplistic design of this e-reader makes it easy to use. The Kobo Touch has a quilt-like backing with an easy-to-maintain matte finish, meaning less instance of annoying and unattractive fingerprints. The keyboard keys are easy to access with minimal keystroke pressure. The e-ink display is easy on the eyes, yet contrasting enough for people to read it easily.

Available Content for this e-reader
The online Kobo store is smaller than its competition. Out of the 2.3 million eBooks advertised, approximately 1.8 million of them are designated as free ebooks available from within the public domain. The Kobo store itself offers around 500,000 eBooks, but this number is on the rise.
Ease of Use of the Kobo Touch
The touch display response for the Kobo is significantly faster, and much more immediate than that of other touch style e-readers. The instant response is a great alternative to the typical hardware up and down page buttons typically found on these devices. The Kobo Touch can automatically connect to available WiFi at hotspots and home and office environments.
Battery Life of this e-reader
The Kobo Touch battery was developed and is designed to last for up to one month, depending upon each user’s specific habits.
Additional Features of Kobo Touch
The Readling Life stats and achievements feature is a nice added system to track reading habits interestingly. Kobo also offers users a way to save on costs, with sponsored screens. Valuable offers may display when the device is in sleep mode, powered off, or located in a discreet section like the bottom of the screen, for less interference with the reading experience.
