My Second Try With Color e-ink

Wow, I didn’t see any issue with my KLC’s color screen even when comparing it to my Kindle Paperwhite. I much prefer the KLC’s ergonomics to a Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition and from what I’ve seen from the Clara it’s close to the same. I’m shocked so many people are complaining about how “grai

Is there a reason outside of being Amazon that Kindles are disliked in this sub (US specific)?

It's a few things: I really, really like page turn buttons. I understand having a touchscreen on these devices, but when the vast majority of your time is going forwards or backwards, in a book, why wouldn't you have buttons for that?

What e-reader are you rocking, and what do you like about it?

I upgraded last year to the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition (12th generation), and I'm loving it so far. I previously had the Kindle Oasis (9th generation) that I used heavily from 2017-2025. While I miss the Oasis's buttons and slimmer form factor, the Paperwhite has three things that I'm findi

Kobo or kindle

Where do you plan to buy your ebooks from? Do you already own ebooks, and if so, where are they from? This is an important questions because if you're getting your ebooks from Kobo then a Kobo is best (although it can use ebooks from places like Google Play as well although it is harder to use Kindl

Clara BW question

I have the Clara 2e and it's far more crisp than my Paperwhite 11th Gen This is both side by side with the brightness set to 0 on each. The Clara 2e is 6 inch and the Paperwhite 11 Gen is 6.8 inches and significantly heavier. The Kindle actually has caused me to get arthritis flare ups where the Cla

Would it be stupid to buy a kindle?

Why do you want to do this the hard way? If you get a kobo you don't need to jailbreak to install koreader, while kindle is making it harder especially with the newest generation, which is what you want by the way, 7" 32 gb is an 11th or 12th gen paperwhite signature.

Kobo vs. Tolino

From someone from Germany: choose Kobo. I now used the Kindle Paperwhite signature edition, the Kobo Libra colour, and the equivalent of Tolino. Kobo all the way. The OS is just a dream, especially when coming from Amazon, and you really have all the customisation possibilities. It's also very easy
