Kobo fixes Kobo Aura One and Kobo Aura Edition 2 battery problems

Kobo AuraOne

The Kobo Aura One and the Kobo Aura Edition 2 are two great eReaders that have garnered the attention and sales of many, but your users complain of battery problems and its autonomy.

Although in the box and Kobo always tells us of an approximate duration of a month or more, the truth is that users are complaining that their eReader does not reach that autonomy time. Kobo has heard these complaints and although it has not said anything about it, your actions seem to confirm the status of this eReader.

Recently (within the past year) Kobo has updated the firmware for these eReaders, having the nomenclature 4.1.7729. This firmware will be quite important for the owners of these new eReaders as it will not only correct the battery problems but will also have some news like complete control over Overdrive, which means that users will be able to return the ebook from the eReader, not requiring any more device.

The new firmware will not only correct battery problems but also improve Overdrive

Synchronization problems have also been fixed as well as some problems that existed with the SSID, something will fix the connection problems of some devices. The functions that do not work yet have been removed from the menus, so now the menus are cleaner and more functional if they fit.

In any case, until no one says otherwise, it seems that this update is almost mandatory to have on our eReaderEither a Kobo Aura One or another model, since the problem seems to lie in the software and not in the hardware. Unfortunately this update will be gradual, that is, not all devices will receive it at the same time, but they will do it in a matter of hours or days, you just have to wait a little longer, something possible if it solves that problem, don't you think?
