KoboGlo E-reader (front and back)

Glo has the same 6-inch, 1024 x 758 pixel, 212 pixels-per-inch resolution as Paperwhite but higher than Nook Glow 800 x 600 resolution, but offers a black bar to indicate the light is on in case you're you can't tell in bright sunlight. As you can see, Glo's got a "porcelain" bezel and is available with one of three back covers – gray, red or blue.
