Tuotteen Kobo Sage arvostelut

Es un poco caro, pero merece la pena

I purchased the Kobo Sage primarily for note taking and that has been my primary use, though I have done a little reading with it. Starting with the bad, I've encountered a lot of screen flickering during use, where parts of or the entire screen blacks out and refreshes. As far as I can tell, it's a random occurrence as just leaving the device untouched and idle for a minute will at times lead to a display refresh. Each time it does refresh while I'm using it, I find it distracting and the latency it introduces while writing notes disorienting. Another problem I've encountered is with the note export functionality. I have yet to actually succeed in exporting notes, it sits there "Exporting notes" without any indication that it's doing anything, and when I finally give up and cancel, it reports a generic non-descript error. The third problem is with the Advanced Notebook. It somehow got irrecoverably corrupted leading me to hard reboot the device several times after I added some notes that it didn't know how to interpret. Given how unstable the Kobo Sage was behaving, I just ended up deleting the notebook. The fourth major issue I've encountered with notes is that I used the Kobo Desktop application to interact with Kobo Sage after I had started using the note taking functionality. What happened was it quasi-deleted the notebooks I had created. I can still see it in the filesystem when attached to the computer, but the device's notebook list doesn't know about it, nor can I create a new notebook with the same name. After narrowing my use to only basic notebooks and mostly keeping it away from my computer, the note taking functionality does work and it's quite nice to use in this limited use case. The large screen is also helpful when writing out notes. However, due to the limit of not being able to backup notebooks (no exporting and potential loss of notebook access), I've generally been avoiding any critical note taking with the device. As for reading, it's quite big and with the power cover it also has heft. Even without the weight of the power cover, I find the screen a tad large to be useful as a portable reading device, but it works well if I discount the portability issues. Other than the random screen flickering being heavily disruptive while reading, I found it quite similar to my existing Kobo Libra H2O which I stick to for reading. Given that my primary reason for purchasing the Kobo Sage is note taking. I am disappointed at the issues I've had with it for that purpose, it does fulfil my requirement for taking notes, but having to take extra precaution against losing any critical notes does sour its value to me as I was trying to conserve on paper notebooks.

The best Ereader! The best overall reading experience I've ever had. There are some people with small hands criticize that it is a bit heavy, or the battery is a bit weak. But that is good enough for a Ereader. Perhaps it is not necessary to make the chip so powerful to drain the battery or reduce the weight a bit.

Smooth, functional, pleasure to read and keep your whole library.

STAY AWAY!!! I have spent $1000's with Kobo for books and readers. I will now be moving to Kindle. After owning 4 different Aura Ones under one warrantee because they all died, when the last Aura One showed multiple issues, we decide to upgrade to Kobo Sage. The Sage lasted all of 2 weeks of light use before it went completely unresponsive, with no warning. It would not even accept charge (no charge light). Terrible flagship model build quality combined with inflexible service procedures relating to warrantee make owning a Kobo a nightmare. STAY AWAY!!!

Je suis très satisfaite de ma nouvelle Kobo Sage. Tout est conforme à la description , elle est légère et très agréable à utiliser. Je recommande ce produit

Ravie par cette nouvelle liseuse. Beaucoup de fonctionnalités. Seul bémol : la batterie ne tient pas plusieurs semaines comme indiqué d'où la note de 4 étoiles. Pour un bon lecteur, la charge tient une semaine ce qui est un peu court

I reported to Kobo three days after receiving it that the charging light does not work (case #3110926). After they approved the replacement, they did not tell me the whole what happens next part of the process. I called two weeks later to find out what was going on only to learn that another email, which had been filtered away, came in for ME to approve the return, OK, fine, did that. They told me on the phone that a shipping label would be sent after I did that. OK fine. Well, the shipping label did not come. That email most definitely did not get filtered anywhere. I have been checking my email for Rakuten for over a week. So I finally got back in touch with them two days ago to find out what was going on. The person said that the support escalation person would resend me the label and it would take 24-hours (for whatever reason). 48-hours later, the label is still not here. We are now at one-month and still nothing. Now, to add insult-to-injury. The person who I talked to two weeks ago on the phone told me I would be receiving a refurbished unit. Excuse me? I report a problem with a brand-new unit within 72-hours of receiving it, and you think it's ok to send me a refurb? But here we are almost a month later and THEY have conveniently slid into the I've had it for 30-days time frame by me constantly not receiving this shipping label. This is some next-level arrogance coming from this company that the only way I can get any attention is to leave a negative review on the product page itself.

This is a really good device. It's my second purchase of a Sage and my 6th (or 7th?) ereader from Kobo. Slightly bummed the pen isn't included by default for the price but overall great value for the money.

After two whole weeks, it seems fine. Meets the advertised spec. Ask again after I find out how much the battery disappoints.

Like the reader and how many books it can hold. However, I had to buy this one to replace the Sage I bought just a year ago, because it scrambled it’s screen and nothing can be read.

The 8" screen does make a difference when compared to my Libra when reading graphic novels. The text in graphic novels are more legible than on my Libra and I feel I can appreciate the art better. Reading novels and the like is pretty much the usual, no problems there. The flush screen I like a lot, gives the e-reader a more premium feel. The backlighting is uneven but not dealbreaking for me. The two major gripes I gave are the battery life and the buttons. As with other reviewers, I found the buttons to be hit or miss at times. I would think I pressed it and wait 2-3 seconds for something to happen only to press the button harder again to be sure it registered. The mushy feedback also isn't ideal compared to the clicky buttons on my Libra. The battery life is also leaving more to be desired. It's not terrible, but the Sage can only last for a few days while my Libra can last for 2 weeks or more for the same amount of reading. It is definitely worth it for focused reading of graphic novels and regular novels with the perfect sized screen for that purpose alone.

Decisamente un buon prodotto, migliorie notevoli rispetto ai precedenti modelli. Non ho provato il pennino, ma sono pienamente soddisfatto dell'acquisto. Ottima la lettura diurna e notturna, fantastica l'integrazione con Dropbox e Pocket.

As I wrote before, I'll give 5 star when you attach Polish language and Polish books

summary: I can't recommend this product. the good: + nice looking screen + USB-C + I like the "handle" design the bad: - cannot zoom or enlarge pictures in epub (maybe other formats too) - sometimes the page turn buttons don't work several times in a row - battery life is 4-5 nights of ~1.5 hour reading (light at 20%) - does not have TTS (which was a feature that I thought it had) - the active pen experience is practically useless - if you accidentally turn off the backlight in the dark then you need to use an alternate light to find the UI element for reenabling the backlight.

Solid feeling build and lightweight. This reader has been a joy to use with no problems so far. Love that it's waterproof especially

Ottimo, provengo dal Kindle e sento di aver fatto un passo in avanti.. soprattutto per il display più grande

Excellent device but insufficient battery life compared to other e-readers I have used (small nook, kindle, Kobo mini). It has one other quirk in how it spontaneously rotation when one 'sleeps' it, but that is minor. It is a wonderful size and has great illumination and handiness, but it runs out of battery juice after just a few hours of reading with modest illumination. Despite these minor disappointments, I'd still buy it again, but only if it were on sale as it was for me.
