    My Kobo Touch failed within 3 months ... Now Chapters wont look after me. I have to deal directly with Kobo. They are very challenging to deal with. I feel cheated .... DO NOT BUY THIS!!

    Can we use this space for actual product reviews, please? The ratings become meaningless when people use this for customer service or tech support instead of actual feedback.

    The screen will never go totally black. The cover of the book you are currently reading will always be on the screen.

    Maybe use google, and not post tech support questions in the comment section.

    wrong advertisment

    How come on the website it said for the Kobo touch, it's 2GB and the battery life lasted 1 month or 20,000 page flip. However the one that I bought said 1GB and only 2 weeks battery life or 10,000 page flip. This is false advertisement.

    I received it as a gift and the battery actually lasted like a day and a half and I have to constantly re-charging it. It finally died after 1 week. I took it back to the store to get a new one but now I have a Silver one instead of the White one I like. :(

    Love my kobo but the books have become more expensive than the paperback in store

    Chris M

    If you read the manual, it tells you that a number of things can affect the battery life. If you want to get more life, you need to turn off the wi-fi. I love how people scream about false advertising and don't read the details first.

    Hi Tina, Upon launching the Kobo eReader Touch the battery life was in fact 2 weeks as stated on the packaging. Kobo works hard to improve their products on a regular basis and since launch and the production of the packaging, the battery life has been tested and increased. Therefore, the 1 month battery life called out on the website is accurate, the package is incorrect. Regarding your silver colour, if you exchanged your Kobo in-store, you should be able to exchange your silver Kobo for a white one. Let us know if you have issues.
