Amazon’s e-readers are widely appreciated in the market for their quality but there are some other companies that are making similar products as well and Kobo is one of them. The company today announced the launch of its new e-reader called the Kobo Clara HD and as the name suggests, it brings a sharper screen to this affordably priced e-reader.

The specs of the Kobo Clara HD are actually quite similar to those of the Kindle Paperwhite from Amazon. Priced at $129.99, it features a 6 inch Carta E Ink touchscreen display with 300 ppi which allows for a much better reading experience.

Kobo’s ComfortLight PRO technology can adjust the lighting and temperature of the screen to ensure that users have no issues with reading their favorite books and novels even under direct sunlight.

There’s a pattern at the back that’s not just there for aesthetics as it also helps improve the grip that users get on this device. The Kobo Clara HD features 8GB of internal storage which is ample storage for the countless books that users will be able to download from the Kobo store.

Kobo has started taking pre-orders for the Clara HD starting today and it’s going to begin shipping the e-reader to customers from June 5th.
