A few things I like:

- More frontlight options. Ability to toggle on/off easily using corner taps,

- More page layout and typography options e.g. custom fonts,

- Ability to load from Calibre over WiFi (I never plug mine in via USB).

Worth nothing that KOReader doesn't replace the default Kobo firmware. It's easy to install and you launch it from the Kobo firmware so it's easy to quit and go back to normal.

Ah, that's definitely something I missed, sounds like a good reason to give it a try!

Same for Kindle. Nothing changes, you just have a link to open KOReader and you can still use your device as before, if you choose to

+1 to this. KOReader acts like an always-on "app" opened from the regular kindle launcher. I believe there may be a way to make it auto start on boot, but it doesn't replace the base OS.
