There’s also a world of free content to leverage. Reading web content saved to Mozilla's Pocket read-it-later service on the Elipsa 2e is a delight. If you own a substantial library of e-books purchased from publishers like Tor or Story Bundle, they can easily be transferred to Elipsa 2e, via Dropbox. Recently, Kobo introduced an all-you-can-read monthly subscription service called KoboPlus, which, at the time this review was written, cost $7.99 per month.

The Kobo Bookstore is home to millions of books and a respectable number of audiobooks to download to your Elipsa 2e. While Amazon might have the largest number of books to purchase and download to its Kindle e-readers, Kobo’s no slouch. Your notes can be synced to Dropbox or Google Drive. Doing so feels natural and by using digital bookmarks you can keep track of any notes you make. Users can scribble directly onto the pages of their digital books and highlight passages, just as they would with a dead-tree edition. These improvements carry over to marking up PDFs and books on the Elipsa 2e, as well. Most of the time, you won’t notice a gap at all. And as for input latency? That’s greatly improved as well. Kobo finally caved and gave its Elipsa users more note-taking templates to work with.Īfter a frustratingly long time, Kobo updated the number of templates available for users to take advantage of, as part of their note-taking practice. It doesn’t have the can’t-tell-it’s-not-paper feel provided by the reMarkable 2, or Kindle Scribe, but it's enough to make jotting down quick notes, writing long passages, or sketching a picture on the tablet feel pleasant. The display glass of the Elipsa 2e has enough of a tooth that the device’s redesigned stylus meets a little resistance with every stroke its user makes.

With the Elipsa 2e, Kobo has made a dramatic leap forward in the quality of its e-note writing experience. Kobo’s smaller e-note, the Kobo Sage, suffered from the same issue.

But its input latency was such that it often became a distraction-waiting to see if a letter you’ve written is going to show up sucks. The first-generation Kobo Elipsa had a textured display glass that provided some resistance against its stylus when you wrote on it, making it seem paper-like. (That’s fancy nerd talk for the delay between a stylus touching a display before its input is recognized). There are three features that an e-note device has to nail in order to provide a paper-like writing experience: Screen texture, a well-designed stylus, and an absence of input latency. The Elipsa 2e provides an adequate notetaking experience that almost rivals what the Amazon Kindle Scribe offers. Now that you know about the few hidden costs associated with owning this device, let’s dive into what’s great–and not so great–about it. Having to replace the tip on a stylus is a normal part of using a digital writing system. A pack of 10 replacement tips will set you back $30. Eventually, if you use your stylus enough, you’ll need to replace its tip. While the Kobo Elipsa 2e comes with a stylus for annotating and note-taking, you’ll have to spend an additional $69.99 on its proprietary sleep cover. Supported Formats: EPUB, EPUB3, FlePub, PDF, MOBI, JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP, TIFF, TXT, HTML, RTF, CBZ, CBR, and, Kobo Audiobooksįor those who have amassed a vast digital library from Kobo’s digital bookstore, or anyone not hip-deep in Amazon’s content ecosystem, the Elipsa 2e offers a fine balance of note-taking and e-reading.Front Lighting: Adjustable brightness and color temperature.
