Amazon’s Kindle Oasis has a new competitor: the waterproof Kobo Forma

Kobo

Kobo's newest e-reader is going after fans of Amazon's Kindle Oasis. The new Kobo Forma is the company's most expensive and comprehensive e-reader yet, coming in at $279 and featuring a waterproof design and an E-ink Mobius display.

Seemingly cut from the same cloth as the Kindle Oasis, the Kobo Forma has an 8-inch display with a large bezel on one edge for gripping. This pseudo-chin has buttons in its center that can be used to flip through pages when the device is either landscape or portrait mode. It's uncommon to see e-readers used in landscape mode, but it's a cool feature to have for those who may prefer it (possibly after getting used to reading in landscape mode using smartphones or tablets).
