InkPad Color 3

For reading for my daughter (she can't read by herself yet) I use InkPad Color 3, it's good because it's something like 8 inches and color.

congrats! You made a great choice! you can customise the buttons on the home screen! Just long press on them, or long press on the library icon to add a new button. If you don't want to use the PB store, you can remove it from your device and replace it with something else, like Klondike. If you hav

if you get a Kobo, expect to convert all of your books that you want on it to kepub format, otherwise you'll be missing on a bunch of basic Kobo features. Library wise, PocketBook has much better customisation and browsing options than Kobo does. And I personally love the customisation that PocketBo

I have been using PocketBook InkPad Color 3 for a couple of months. It's a great device because of the physical buttons, good screen, easy sideloading, and effortless KOReader installation. The integration with Calibre also works fine using Wi-Fi. I use mostly to read EPUB and FB2.
