I bought the Clara BW mainly because of the possibility to repair it myself if something breaks down in a few years. The gesture navigation is pretty good, the workmanship is pretty good anyway, and the optional Sleepcover cover is great too, thanks to the built-in stand that matches my reader perfectly. Sideloading your own books e.g. from the computer, calibre does it for you pretty well. The display is great quality, but I might take something bigger for comics and manga. I've read five books in two weeks without any problems and the battery is at 70% despite all this use and reading 3-4 hours a day. The reader is probably the best choice in this size format besides the Pocketbook Verse Pro. If you're tempted by the possibility of a patch, a looser ecosystem VS Kindle and so on, then you should consider Clara BW as a decent option.
Excellent display
Snappy system (especially vs Pocketbook Verse Pro)
Good interaction with calibre even on Linux
Uniform backlight with great strength (15% backlight is enough for me at night)
Excellent battery
Good workmanship (plastic holds firmly, does not bend in any way)
No buttons except the power button
No SD slot unless you have a really big library

Povodne I wanted to go to pocketbook 629, but in the end I decided to go to kobo after too many bad reviews on nevyreklamovatelny display and I am satisfied. It's not a total love, but for the price, the best compromise without fear
Price
Warm (gold) backlight
Fixed body
Battery life
Dark mode doesn't work for the whole menu, only for the book, which is really embarrassing and annoying
Unable to upload books from own source via wifi/bt/cloud, only via usb

The stops are really small and for the price it's a great reader. I was probably most pleased that I didn't have to give up my Kindle library.
small, lightweight, holds well
easy operation
you can import books from Kindle - even pure Kindle apps, without physical device, you need Calibre and old version of Kindle app, there are instructions on the web
own Kobo e-shop and uploading books from Calibre
can handle text pdf (via Calibre). The paging is messed up, but they can be read
backlight with adjustable brightness
browser in beta - you probably won't see it on YT, but you can read the Wikipedia article
the ex-Kindle book shows nonsense about the procedure: the book has 1400 pages (about 1200 in real terms, the rest are notes, literature, etc), I am on page 700 and it says I am in 38%. But that's more a problem of Calibre and conversion (even if I put the conversion into kepub), than of the reader itself
sometimes flashes when turning pages (page, black screen, page)

After two PocketBook readers, which despite gentle handling in three years cracked the screen, hopefully this one will last. Compared to the PocketBook, an ingeniously simple switch on the back - easily accessible and no need to hit the tiny button with your fingernail.
long battery life
perfectly positioned switch button
support for different formats
possibility to upload books directly via cable from PC
unfortunately, it's probably a trend we can't do without today, but without registration you won't get any further to the initial setup
problems with registration - the code didn't arrive until the next day
Compared to PocketBook, a little worse and less clear organization of books
