Very good86/100
Rank 1 out of 6Stiftung WarentesteBook-Reader im Test - So lässt es sich lesenReleaseMay 2022

It is very robust. Its software works largely like that of the larger Kobo Elipsa. However, the Sage is waterproof and has a slightly higher resolution. Short battery life: it stops after 13 hours of reading.
