    I’m not aware of any Kobo using Android.

        I’m dubious Android even serves as a base for Kobo’s OS. I’ve seen no evidence to support that claim.

        EDIT: if you are referring to Tolinos, they are not simple rebrands of Kobos.

          No, I forget where exactly it was, but at some point last year I was deep in Rakuten’s documentation and it referenced that the Clara HD’s OS is based on a modified Android 8 kernel.

      Since Kobo rebrands as Tolino too and one i had years ago was clearly some sort of Android, i think they are still? Maybe more locked down and under the hood?

        Tolinos use different processors precisely because they run Android, while Kobos do not.
