No front buttons and no USB port though. They use the same pogo pin thingo like the X3

Yeah, buttons and ports, who needs those /s

Understandably the buzz is around the pro, but I'm waiting to hear more on the x4 v2

That backlight looks incredibly yellow!

It'd be neat if you could redshift it. But I think the colour in the ad is just an ad...

Of course I just ordered a x3 three days ago -_-

I'm kind of puzzled people even consider a device for reading with such a miniscule screen

It's actually very doable and helps me get more reading done overall. I just finished my 7th book on the X4

Haven't tried it yet, but I'm curious myself. I dont expect it to replace my main kobo, but it might be nice to have a small device on hand for short reading breaks.

Haha, I also ordered an x3 last week! Hopefully the specs aren't everything I wanted

I'll see how much I'll use the x3 or if I'd use it if I had light... And then probably justify buying a second :D
