Looking to lose yourself in a good story? Rakuten Kobo today introduces the Kobo Remote, an ergonomically designed page turner that will be available for purchase on November 4, 2025.
With a long-lasting battery and intuitive design, Kobo Remote is the ideal reading companion – and the perfect holiday gift for Kobo readers.
As Kobo’s first-ever wireless remote page turner, Kobo Remote is custom-built for Kobo eReaders and designed to offer unparalleled convenience and the absolute minimum of movement to disturb your reading cosiness. Crafted with avid readers in mind, it will empower users to enjoy their digital library easier than ever before and will be available in Black and White.
“We know that sometimes maximum reading comfort means burrowing down in the blankets, tucking yourself in, and becoming completely absorbed in the story,” said Michael Tamblyn, CEO, Rakuten Kobo. “The Kobo Remote is the perfect accessory for peak immersive reading; it’s an invitation to lounge deeper, multitask smarter and simply enjoy reading without limits, no matter whether your environment is beach or blankets. We look forward to sharing more details soon.”
Kobo Remote will be broadly compatible with all Kobo Bluetooth enabled eReaders and will retail for $44.95 AUD at www.kobo.com/accessories and select retailers.
The remote will be available in stores and online on 2 December November 4, 2025, in Canada, the US, the UK, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, Poland, the Czech Republic, Romania, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan and Turkey.
