The first device had multiple hotspots that shine a bright pixel-sized light through the outer layer and are quite distracting. The replacement device also has a hotspot - a common occurrence after some Googling. The rest of the device is excellent, but let down by poor quality control. Angus & Robertson were great with the replacement process, but I won't be recommending this particular model to anyone else for the price it is. Also, there is no reason for the power button to require so much force to press - if you have arthritic fingers, good luck turning it on/off.

This is my first e reader and it's terrific. It's easy to use, nice large screen which adapts automatically to night time reading, abililty to customise the text to my requirements. It connects to my wifi and any books I buy are instantly downloaded.. Strongly recommend the Kobo Forma.
