I have had a Kobo Touch for many years. I bought it precisely because it seemed the most open: I could load files via USB.
But the screen cracked and I had to replace it. I didn't like what I found inside. The screen is glued on, the battery is soldered. Is seems it wasn't made to be fixed.
- rekado 5y agoI still have a Kobo Touch and my experience was very different. The screen cracked and I replaced it. It wasn't glued on. The battery is now pretty much dead, but it's connected with a standard connector and not soldered. Here's what it looks like: https://elephly.net/posts/2013-07-25-kobo-touch.html https://elephly.net/posts/2013-07-25-kobo-touch.html
- forinti 5y agoIt is a bit different from mine (which I fixed in 2017). Unfortunately, I didn't think of taking pictures of its innards. One thing I remember clearly which I can't distinguish in your photo is a microSDHC slot with a 2GB card in it. I thought about upgrading it, but it already has a slot for another card and you can store an absurd amount of books in 2GB anyway. I settled on an ED060SCE(LF)C1 screen. I couldn't find the differences between T1 and C1. The image on the C1 is a bit worse than the original (which was only labeled as ED060SCE(LF)) but it is good enough.
