    One To Get, For Your First Kobo.
    This is the best Kobo e-reader I've had, since I decided that it'll be my first one too. It's light enough to hold, sharp and clear screen and I don't really have to worry about how long the battery holds up. So far, it's been 3 weeks since I use it, and it still have 50 percent charge left. Not a voracious reader myself, but so far it's been good. I get the idea of why to some, but yeah, the power button placement is a sore to my eyes. My mind always wondered to this button, every single reading time while holding the device. It's annoying most of the time really. It's not completely flushed with the frame, so there's always that worries that I might accidentally press it. Another thing is, I don't know why but I don't see the Overdrive option on my Kobo setting. While it does mentioned about the Overdrive support. I'm totally fine so far with it's not there in the settings menu, but that's one of the reasons I bought Kobo in the first place. Anyway, I just passed the idea of having it on mine, as I'm happily enough to get all my e-books elsewhere and still be able to read. Only used the WiFi to update all the purchased books I have and progress, nothing else. If all you need is only for reading books, with not much graphics involved, the it's all good. It'll be my only e-reader for a long time until it brake down I guess. Kindle are too popular and doesn't support ePub really. I just need an e-reader that is not Kindle, and read books on.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Comes with 8 GB of storage, but expandable if you know how
    Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2022
    Sharp picture quality, great format support and the memory is expandable, with a bit of tinkering.

    Expanding memory may require a factory reset which ERASES ALL DATA on the device

    Here's how:

    Step 1: Pop the back cover off (I used my finger nail and then an old credit card to lift up the cover from the device).

    Step 2: Slide out the microSD card from the slot, mine was originally a 16GB card, with an 8GB partition.

    Step 3: Connect the microSD card to the computer and make an image of the card, (I used DD on Ubuntu) windows users can use this app: https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/

    Step 4: Pop in your larger capacity microSD (preformatted to fat32)to your computer and write the image of the previous microSD to it.

    Step 5: Expand the third partition on the microSD (the one with the larger capacity) to fill the rest of microSD's capacity.

    Step 6: Pop it back in to your Kobo Clara HD. It will be unstable, so you have to perform a factory reset first, once you do, it will work perfectly fine.

    Edit 2022: successfully upgraded memory to 128 GB
