Kobo elipsa review 202211/12/2023 ![]() ![]() To put that into context, the Elipsa comes with 32GB of storage by default, with a stylus that includes erase and highlight buttons. The much newer Amazon Kindle Scribe that was announced late in 2022 costs $339.99 / £339.99 / AU$549.99 for 16GB of storage with basic pen. There is a Folio available for the ReMarkable 2, but that too is an extra expense. You’ll need to pay an extra $49 / £49 / AU$79 to get the Marker (stylus). In comparison, the ReMarkable 2 costs $399 / £399 / $679 for the tablet alone. This will set you back $399.99 / £349.99 / AU$599.95, which is quite competitive considering you’re getting the accessories as well. However, the brand has taken a different approach with the Kobo Elipsa, selling it as a bundle, including the sleepcover and the stylus with the tablet, in a package called the Elipsa Pack.

Where Amazon has managed to make writing on its first large-screen ereader buttery smooth, Kobo didn't quite achieve that. The stylus doesn't feel quite as natural as the experience we've had with the Kindle Scribe. But that's not unique to Kobo – every 10.3-inch E Ink tablet we've tested is going to feel cumbersome as an ereader. And, it’s not designed for one-handed use. It’s too large to use on public transport, even if you’ve got a seat, and feels heavy in the hand, even without a sleepcover. Kobo says the Elipsa is an ereader first, but with a screen size of 10.3 inches and 383g in weight, it’s not quite as portable as traditional ereaders. Then there’s the size and weight considerations. ![]()
