            The Kobo AuraAuraThe Kobo Aura is the fifth generation of E-book readers designed and marketed by Kobo Inc. It was revealed 27 August 2013 at Kobo's Beyond the Book Event in New York City, along with three new Kobo Arc devices.https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Kobo_AuraKobo Aura - Wikipedia One is the bigger sister to Aura, and it looks almost exactly like it — except it has a 7.8in HD display and touch screen. The main difference is in what the screens can do, plus the Aura One is waterproof. Same micro-USB port, just, you know — waterproof.Jun 28, 2017
