Because Kobo Glo’s advanced high-res XGA Pearl E Ink screen doesn’t use a glass overlay for its front light technology, there’s never any glare, even in the brightest sunlight.

2015. Kobo unveiled new e-Reader Glo HD to take on Kindle Voyage



Kobo’s new Glo HD e-reader will boast the claim of highest resolution for the lowest price when it launches on May 1 for $129.99. The latest device from Rakuten-owned Kobo offers 300 ppi pixel density on a 6-inch screen, matching the resolution of the $199.99 Kindle Voyage, which should ensure exceptionally sharp, pixel-free text rendering. In fact, both the Kobo Glo HD and the Kindle Voyage utilize e-ink’s Carta screen technology, providing text rendering similar to what you’d see with a super high resolution e-ink display, like those found in iPhones and modern Android devices, though using the low-power e-paper tech that presents in black and white and is better suited for a dedicated reading device.
