The repairability page hasn’t been updated yet, but Kobo Colour help pages went live yesterday. Nate has more info on it: https://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/20...dels-now-live/

Kobo Repairability Page
Kobo has updated their Repairability page with content now that the new devices are available.
As posted earlier, this is is the main Repairability page: https://help.kobo.com/hc/en-us/artic...r-Kobo-eReader You’ll find the following topics: Quote:
http://ifixit.com/kobo It’s a work of beauty. You’ll find guides with photos for all the replaceable parts, as well as a list of available parts for sale. I could have used something like this when I mangled my poor Kobo Aura One ages ago when I first started learning how to repair Kobos. Last edited by Cootey; 04-30-2024 at 10:55 PM. |

Kobo Repairability Page
Thanks to iFixit’s tear down, I now know that the Kobo Libra Colour has a fixed eMMC for memory, and not a microSD card.
They take care to point out ways to get through the protective coating that is all over the motherboard. Last edited by Cootey; 05-04-2024 at 09:47 PM. |

Fascinating! Do you have a link to that discussion? I wouldn’t mind punching up the intensity of my colors, so I’ll have to poke around iFixit’s page. |

It would have been nice if Kobo had created a calibration app on the Kobo to adjust these things, but calibrating via text file works, too. |
