The Kobo Aura H20 is the newest innovation when it comes to reading your favorite book. Rather than risk getting precious pages of a paperback wet while lounging by the pool or dropping your Kindle into a creek, grab this reader and you can practically read underwater if you’d like.

The Aura H20 is equipped with HZO Protection™ IPX8 allowing it to survive submerged in up to two meters of water for 60 minutes. You could easily take this with you into the tub without having to worry about losing your grip and ruining it. It also connects to WiFi and has a battery that lasts for weeks without needing a recharge.

If you’re a night reader, the Aura H20 provides an added bonus — embedded ComfortLight PROP emits an optimal light setting that allows you to read it at any time during the day without, they claim, disturbing your sleep patterns.
With a screen that enables a print-quality reading experience and the capacity to hold up to 6,000 eBooks, this device is the perfect companion for the traveler who likes to relax with a good read. There are more than 5 million titles alone in the Kobo online bookstore. Also? It syncs to your other electronic devices so you can share books between them.

With a starting price of $179.99, the Kobo Aura H20 sounds like a pretty great deal.
