New Delhi: Kobo launched its new e-reader - the Kobo Aura H2O. The new device is claimed to be the world's first premium waterproof e-ink e-reader. Kobo Aura H2O is IP67 certified, which means it is waterproof for up to 30 minutes in 1 metre of water with the port cover closed.
This enables people to read more often anywhere they like worry-free without damaging their device if accidently dropped in or splashed with water. Reading on a sun-drenched beach is also encouraged, due to the device's dustproof design and anti-glare display.
The new e-reader has a 6.8-inch display and is powered by a 1GHz processor - hinting swift page turns. Wwith 4GB of onboard storage (expandable up to 32GB with a microSD card), readers can store thousands of eBooks. In addition, Kobo Aura H2O has a battery life of up to two months.
Kobo Aura H2O will be available in black and will retail for $179.99 starting October 1 in Canada, the US, the UK, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, and Spain - with more countries to follow.
