A possibly minor nitpick but given women are the majority of their customer base, please make these things more aesthetic. Doesnt even have to be a whole redesign, give it some color, even just an on-trend shade would go far to make it a lot more fashionable.

What I would appreciate is them not plastering the logo/name on the front where it's staring you in the face as you try to read. I already bought the damn device, stop advertising (harassing) to me!

(Both my previous generation Kindle Paperwhite that I switched from and the Kobo Clara Colour that I switched to, do this.)

Then if they could make the glass screen flush with the front like the Paperwhite, that would be awesome too.

Acetone or black marker will fix that.

Maybe acetone on the Kobo, as it looks like it is printed directly onto the plastic, but for the Kindle, I think it was under the glass.

FYI anyone else reading this: acetone is too strong and eats away at the plastic.

Kobo covers are the main way people get that aesthetic oomph.
