Is it possible to replace broken colour screen with BW version (N365)
I have a Kobo Clara Colour, which I purchased October 2024. As such, it is the N367 (not the N367B). Unfortunately, I managed to crack the screen while on a flight (too much pressure on device). There are currently no replacement colour screens in stock, and based on the content I've been reading, a BW screen would be more appropriate. Is it possible to replace the colour screen with the BW version (screen sold for the N365)?
Is this a good question?

I'm in Canada, and Ifixit Canada is showing 0 units of the colour kit. Also, would much rather convert to BW screen if possible.

Don't know without a pinout of the display which I can't find.
The colour display would be set up to receive signals differently to the b/w display as would the motherboard so even though the physical dimensions are the same as are the screen cables & cable connection positions N365, N367 this doesn't mean that they are interchangeable.
Hopefully you find an exact answer but given the cost of the displays (both $US75 on ifixit) it would be an expensive mistake if they aren't
