What are the best E-readers?

Kindle and Kobo are the main two most established brands of the space. The former generally tend to be a bit better built and less buggy, and supports some great QoL features like syncing across devices for sideloaded content and send-to-Kindle. Kindle books can only be read on the Kindle device or

Чому я обрав Linux, а не Android: огляд PocketBook Era 700 (спроба №2)

Привіт, це моя друга спроба зробити огляд (дякую спільноті, врахував помилки першої версії). Хочу розповісти про свою читалку PocketBook Era 700 (чорно-біла версія) і пояснити, чому, на мою думку, це найкраща E-Ink книга на сьогоднішній день. Почну з приємного факту: компанія PocketBook була заснова

pocketbook verse (pro) vs clara bw vs other recs?

Verse Lite is just a worse Verse, just forget about it (smaller battery, no buttons, no SD card slot, no warm colour temperature, also not waterproof - as the standard Verse isn't). Portablility: all devices in discussion are 6" devices, there's no difference in portability (Kobo Clara BW is slightl

What features would you want in the next PocketBook device?

Quality build like Pocketbook Era with 8" flush glass screen with buttons on the SIDE, like Kobo Sage. Or another Era 7" style device, I'm good either way. If you go 8", I'm not against a flush Mobius screen to help with weight. Carta 1300 BW screen. Quicker processing (RAM/CPU). Retain built-in spe

I need a 7-8" BW ereader with buttons. Suggestions?

I have the Era & the 8" Carta 1200 PocketBook InkPad 4. Both are decent devices, the screen on both is fine. The Era now is my most favourite device, but I still use my InkPad 4 for manga (bigger screen). I said fine because I could in the past compare my InkPad 4 to a Carta 1300 sunken screen Kobo

It's been an expensive 6 months since leaving Kindle

Growing up in school I hated reading. None of the required reading books ever did anything for me, so I rarely actually read them. But that all changed in 2011 when I got a Kindle Keyboard and found out I could read books that I actually liked. It's been wondering and I've been singing the praises o

Can I live with the Paperwhite or should go for the Pocketbook Era

I've spent the last 2 months testing multiple ereaders, with Pocketbook Era (both color and BW) and the Kindle Signature Edition being the main candidates. Screen quality - I had to change my Era 3 times to arrive at an acceptable quality unit. The screen is sidelid, meaning there will be a gradient

Thinking to return my Kobo Libra Colour and get a Pocketbook Era BW, but I really need advice first...

I don't own a Libra Colour, I have a Kobo Sage, which is heavier. I also own a Kindle 7" Oasis. The Pocketbook is heavier than the Kindle, but I still really like it. Obviously, I also handle an 8" Sage regularly, so YMMV. But I'm a senior citizen who broke both wrists in a fall as recently as 2018.
