      I was on the fence but definitely getting one now.
      I'm just looking up how to convert some of the manga I have into the right format for it. Most are just folders with jpgs so... 😅

      ​@@zain.f I ended up using something called Kindle Comic Converter, which is apparently optimized for comics/manga and those types of things (and not just for Kindle despite its name).

      Ayyy nice buddy!! I've actually been reading a few Manga:
      - Gin No Saji/Silver Spoon (A farming Manga)
      - Space Brothers/Uchuu Kyoudai (A space travel Manga)
      Both are super calm and have motivational stories in it! So I like the vibe of these two
      Not super intense but nice light stories to read on the way to lectures lol
      Have you been able to side load Manga onto it from your computer?
      If you need me to make a video for that let me know! : D

    Heyy thanks for making this video. Can you explain how to download manga for free and how to add it to an e-reader? Completely new to this, but I'm considering the Libra 2, just wondering if the cost of buying digital manga is worth it or not.. Is there a way to get free or cheap manga?

    Lost in Technology made a video showing that manga looks blurry on e-readers when compared to real paper and even other devices. Would you say that that's also an issue on Kobo Libra 2 when comparing it to how it looks on PC?

    • @zain.f
      @zain.f  Před 11 měsíci +2

      Honestly I haven’t really had that issue, if we did a super close up, I think we might notice a slight difference, but when you’re just reading it day to day on this device, I absolutely don’t notice it being blurry at allll. 👌
      When you get manga from the Kobo store, it’s even more clearer than downloading it on the E-reader manually, but like I said, nothing too noticeable and I haven’t really noticed it at all! 🙏

    Assalamualaikum Zain as usual masha Allah great job. Surely very informative no need to go to the store to know this e-reader.
    I have a question books we can store can we store the books we ready for years in the e-reader, it occupies space and we will land paying to store books.
    May Allah reward you. Ameen

      Wallikumassalam! Thanks so much !! You download books on your computer and side load it into the E-reader! at no cost at all! : D
      You need an app called " Calibre "
      InshaAllah I'll do a video tutorial on that in the future! : )

      Yoo! Yeah it was hard to find LOL I had to find one online, I found a EBUB format of the Quran and then side-loaded that into my Kobo manually lol
      Since it's a 'EPUB' format, it does have chapters for every surat! which is super nice..!
      There's still some issues like it doesn't let me highlight the text but I can do basic things like page book marks haha.
      Also there is an issue in landscape mode lol
      So there are certain issues haha but overall it's okay! If you want the quran KOBO EPUB file I can send it to you! : D
