Kobo is notorious for having atrocious response time. I'm on my third generation of Kobo reader and it's still dogshit slow.

The periodic crashes are also really tiresome - I regularly have to hard-power-cycle the thing and often lose my reading progress. Why this has been a problem for 6+ years is beyond me but my guess is that they're spending very little on R&D/QA, running on an ancient SoC.

Kobo must be very good, in other ways!
