The Vox Kobo ($ 199 direct) is the fire, the Amazon Kindle ($ 199) to remove the tablet cheaper e-book reader. But despite sharing a similar appearance to fire in the choice of the editors of Vox Kindle Kobo and Poland could not restrict competition. EReader is a decent job as a color, but beyond that is very close to the date of Barnes and Noble My years of Nook. Poor performance, software, materials, and the difficult experience of reading a paragraph on sale Kobo Vox with only $ 199.

Kobo is a court, Vox black, looked like a "little" as a fire or Kindle BlackBerry playbook. The 7.6 by 5.1 inches by 0.53 (RDC) and 14.2 grams, a little larger and easier to ignite the fire of 7, 5 by 4.7 by 0.45 cm and 14 grams 6 new black plastic rubber has the consistency of the fire itself and the BlackBerry Playbook Kindle, but Kobo Diamond provides superior coverage. The process is similar to light a fire, but is a bit "more flexible hand in case of fire, apparently stronger. Vox is a power switch and volume control physical, which I found useful as" a round the fire, the strange light switch. The image is a bit larger than the Kindle and the houses of the new approach to the Start menu and capacitive buttons. Some people appreciate these dedicated, off-screen buttons, but I realized that leads to problems when the tablet in landscape mode. Kobo Vox and standard micro-USB headset, microSD slot and a speaker. As the Kindle and the Nook of fire, otherwise Vox Tablet Kobo and rear cameras gone. Vox connected to the Internet via 802.11 b / g / n Wi-Fi and had no problems connecting to our network of laboratories. No Bluetooth or by phone.
7-inch field of marginal interest rate (FF +) LCD screen is bright and resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels makes it easier to see the text. Kobo is gone with the FFS plan + see more switching (IPS), the former best actor in bright light environments. Kobo's screen shiny IPS screen Kindle is fire, but I found the experience of playing abroad, the same in both. SBB + screen has a viewing angle is narrower than the Kindle screen enabled. The colors are more intense heat. Reading e-books, the text is actually more black and white contrast Vox jumps almost scary.
Operating system, applications, library
The Vox Kobo, Nook tablets, and light the fire in the software based on Google Android 2.3. If Barnes and Noble and Amazon are very angry Kobo users is very close to the field of Android. Lock screen changes and mimics the movement of the tablet in two sliding doors and fire Nook Kindle. The five home screens with built-in applications, such as Merriam-Webster, Zinio Reader, press for newspapers and magazines to read, which can be a useful answer, but are also easy to remove. In contrast to the Kindle or Tablet Nook Kobo fire with the main screen, like a collage of links, books read recently discovered.
There are four icons at the bottom of the screen reading, all applications with a single button. The first three are pretty self-explanatory: Play Now Kobo library and a boutique. This is the reading of the life that is unique to Kobo Vox. It takes you to a page that reads the progress and statistics, including things like all season, and displays pages for now. Although not very useful, add a little "," fun reading experience.
It can also be prizes and awards obtained by further investigation. Kobo is really a social experience of reading, integration with Facebook and sharing options weighed. This is similar to Barnes and Noble Nook Application friends, but instead of a separate application, and integrates social resources to share their reading. You can comment on the pages and read what others have to say about the books you read. It's like a virtual book club, but it would be good to make a selection of books and friends have Nook. There is also a message at the top of the screen, battery life, time, the state of Wi-Fi and warnings.
Gmail is installed, but not in Google Maps or Google. Instead of "Android Market, the Vox with a link to GetJar's store network-based applications."

Kobo store offers a selection of more than 2.2 million e-books should offer more than one million Amazon. But the book of accounts was difficult, for example, there is no separate section for the cruise, for example, children's books or comics. When I finally had some children's books that looked good, but as described below, the tablet should stop "a bit" frustrated with him as a child.
Performance and experience of reading
Performance is slow and frustrating for those who do not respond to pain and touch, including the use of heavy angle Kobo Fire Vox Kindle or Tablet. The tablet is based on an unprecedented scale i.MX51 800 MHz Cortex-A8 processor and 512 MB of RAM and 8 GB of internal memory (with unlimited storage space for the content of the clouds by Kobo). The heart of aging is actually a CPU Rack. Vox is a poor 1777 Kobo Antutu our benchmark, the rate of operation of components such as CPU and memory measurements. E 'was significantly lower than the 5052 fire the client. The movements and animations are still slow, irregular and often insensitive in my tests. Be prepared for long load times and more machines to get their orders.
The Kobo Vox has become a disappointing trade winds 25-051 browser is less than one third of the 76,739 fires Kindle The following comparison is twice that Samsung, a smartphone is very low.
The performance of the Vox is a little reading. "Even if the side rotates fast enough to take the books for a long time to load. And once lost Rincón Kindle and animation, to fill the gap between the physical and tactile eReader books. Kobo Vox also has difficulty change from vertical to horizontal without any problem, as I read. It takes a long time, exposed to a white screen with the symbol of a turning radius.
Vox says Kobo must be disabled to 7 hours of battery life with Wi-Fi in our battery test, grinding, pumping is a video with the screen brightness and Wi-Fi Kobo Vox Max in 3 hours, 47 minutes. This is much smaller than the Kindle the fire that lasted nearly five hours, the same test.
Conclusions
With Vox, Kobo tries to mimic the Amazon Kindle the fire, and in almost all respects. Kobo can reach the sweet spot price of U.S. $ 199, but at the expense of performance and polish. Lighting the fire is a great product at an affordable price. Vox Kobo, on the other side of the budget is a product with a price match. There is simply no reason for choosing Kobo Fire Vox, the tablet Nook, Nook, or color.
