pocketbook verse (pro) vs clara bw vs other recs?

Verse Lite is just a worse Verse, just forget about it (smaller battery, no buttons, no SD card slot, no warm colour temperature, also not waterproof - as the standard Verse isn't).

Pocket Book Verse Vs Verse Pro vs Verse Lite.

Don't buy the Lite, except you want to save as much money as possible. You can't change colour temperature, don't have buttons (it's the only PocketBook device without buttons) and get a significantly smaller battery (size of the battery is not only a day-to-day thing, it also decides how long your
