Kobo or Boox: Which did you choose? FAQ feedback appreciated.
If you want to run any app what is out there, get an Android e-reader. Makes it can be a Kindle, Pocketbook, Kobo, Libby (using all accounts), it can be whatever you want including Koreader + no need to make file conversions. And it handles PDF files like a dream. Also comics and manga will be way s

Umm..
never heard of it in my life; unlikely it supports fast refresh modes. a Boox Go 7 or Bigme B7 Pro on the other hand could do this easily. ETA: quad core and 1 GB RAM from 5 years ago, wtf are you doing lol https://goodereader.com/blog/electronic-readers/inkbook-calypso-plus-e-reader-is-now-availabl

first e-reader for anti-amazon Libby reader?
Second this. I recently got a Bigme B7, and while getting it setup to my liking took an hour or so (in part because I like to tinker) the freedom of Android with the bonus of expandable storage are awesome!I have so many books, access to Libby, my choice of several ereading apps, and love how I can

Don't Buy from Onyx Boox
I just dont want to be locked into amazon eco system. Much prefer android or some other open os that let's me run what I want on my ereader. Ive carried my bigme b7 around in my backpack a lot without it breaking. E-ink screens are more fragile in general though so you want to be cautious.

Just received my Boox GoColor 7 Gen 2 yesterday and already want to return it - is there any way to fix this level of ghosting?
and then you refresh and it's gone. the only devices that clear ghosting like this are going to be devices with BSR like the Palma 2 Pro, Note Air 3/4/5C, or Bigme B7 Pro (using Bigme's SSS which is the same type of tech). all of those will typically have worse battery life because quick-clean tech

Help picking
First off, don't give up so easily. You paid for something and you didn't get it. Where's the proof that it was delivered to you?? Did someone sign for it? Did the delivery driver take a pic of where they left the damn thing? Unless the delivery happened a long time ago you should get your money bac

Looking for a small eReader
If you get a boox go 7 or a bigme b751/b7. They are just like android tablets, you can do just about anything on them as you can a tablet, but slower with a e ink screen. You can surf the web, watch YouTube. They are meant for reading so they are not the best at other stuff

Just picked my fist ever ereader - the Musnap ocean C bundle at 40% off
I like that we have a lot of these E readers molded after the Kindle Oasis. That was a very nice design and yet Amazon being Amazon decided to discontinue it. I grabbed the Bigme B7 color discounted too. Love it
