![]() The Kobo Elipsa has a giant 10.3 inch screen with the same E INK 1200 display panel, processor and storage as the Sage, however it has 1GB of RAM.Īs you can see, the Forma is utterly dwarfed by the Sage and Elipsa. You also get more RAM and 32GB of storage, without paying a premium price. It also has a quadcore processor, whereas the Forma had a single core. In addition, faster response time enables smoother handwriting and animations displays. It is employing E INK Carta 1200, this new screen tech delivers a 20% increase in response time over E Ink Carta 1000, and an improvement in the contrast ratio of 15%. The Kobo Sage has the same 8 inch screen as the Forma, except this model is so much better. These two models basically supplanted the Forma as the two premium e-readers and also have Kobo Stylus functionality to draw, take notes or make annotations in books. In 2021, Kobo unveiled the Elipsa, and Sage. At the time, this was the only Kobo model that had Dropbox support, which was useful for people who had a large collection of digital content housed in the cloud. This e-reader came out in 2018 and the main selling points was the giant 8 inch display, was light due to the Mobius E INK display panel and there was a 32GB variant, to house a big collection of books. The Forma is no longer relevant and I believe it is going to be discontinued once the remaining stock has been sold out. ![]() In Canada, this model is actually on sale for $259, which is $40 off the regular price, the USA is also running the same $40 discount too. It is not until you click on ALL E-Readers do you see the Forma there, but they only have the 8GB model, the 32GB hasn’t been available for months. When you visit the main Kobo website, and select Apps & E-Readers and the Forma is no longer showing up. The product is still listed on Amazon, but there is only limited quantities available and they only have the 8GB model available. Their Amazon page does not list the model on their Homepage anymore. Kobo is no longer marketing the Kobo Forma, their previous flagship e-reader. ![]()
