I would’ve liked to see a USB-C port instead, but at least the Forma won’t need recharging too often. The power button is on the handle side, with a micro USB port for charging. I didn’t test this out, as I like to keep my stuff protected, but it is something the company claims. Kobo says the device can withstand accidental drops and general physical wear and tear better than any model predating it. The IPX8 rating makes the Forma water-resistant down to two metres for up to 60 minutes. There’s 8GB of internal storage, which is good for a whole lot of books and documents.

The ComfortLight Pro adjustable blue light filter is also back to make reading in the dark easier.
Resolution is the same as before (300 dpi), so you won’t get sharper text here, but still looks great anyway. This is all meant to complement the 8-inch Carta E Ink display-the largest to date on a Kobo eReader. The touchscreen functions are the same, so you can still turn pages the old way, but pressing the buttons offer another option. To add something extra, Kobo also put physical page turn buttons on the face. It’s slightly thicker than the rest of the unit, with a bend to better contour when being held. Here, Kobo has added a piece to the side that makes it noticeably wider than more recent models. The Forma is less like a paperback and more like a paperback with one side rolled backward to grab hold. The most obvious change is the handle on the side. Where Kobo has made some of its devices smaller, the Forma goes the other way-it adds more flexibility in how you hold it when reading. The Forma is very much a continuation of what Kobo has done before, only the focus has angled toward comfort and longevity. The Kobo Forma eReader makes size matter with a bigger screen, larger handle and additional durability for longer stretches of reading.
