Happily using a Kobo again after 10 years! 💖✨ (initial thoughts and comparison with Kindle Paperwhite)

I understand you fully. I switched from an oasis 2nd gen which I loved dearly. I made the switch back in February when Amazon removed the download books option from their website. I tried different e-readers from pocketbook and kobo. I settled with the kobo as it offered better syncing options with

Trying to decide on upgrade from a dying Kobo Clara HD

My first e-reader is a Kobo Clara HD (6 inch, 300 ppi) that I got second hand for 20 bucks last year. It's served me well but the battery is pretty much toast; it completely dies once it reaches around 85% and then takes over a day to recharge and goes through a factory reset, so I basically have to

Kobo Libra Colour vs Clara Colour for manga, comics & books — is the price difference worth it?

I have an iPad and I'd recommend getting the Clara for books. I've also got a Pocketbook Inkpad Colour 3, which has a 7.8 inch screen and sometimes it feels too small for comics and manga, I've also got an old Kindle Oasis, which has the same size screen as the Libra Colour and I personally find it

kobo OR pocketbook OR onyx boox ? :)

8" InkPad 4. For manga applies the bigger the better, I use it daily for reading manga. Even bigger devices would get less handy and you would have to look into Android ereaders (of which there are a couple out there). The colour tech unluckily has disadvantages for colour content, for manga (and bo

Is it worth upgrading from clara bw to libra colour for comics?

There's a point in the setup process where you can connect the device to a PC, add a line to an internal file, reboot it and get straight thrown into the so called sideload mode (but in this mode you won't have a homepage anymore, just your library - everything not store related will still work, but

This just may be the new hardware surprise folks!

If that doesn't come to fruition, check out the PocketBook InkPad Color 3, it's a 7.8 inch color reader. I've been using the InkPad 4, the B&W version of the same thing and I've been enjoying it.

Choosing my first pb

I think the InkPad Lite it is more or less OK; I already wrote about the ppi a 4K 27' monitor has, and therefore I suspect the screen is... OK-ish? But for me it is important that you are at least relatively sure about what you possibly are getting when buying it (it's still hard, up to impossible,

My Kindle is an ad filled wasteland and I regret buying it.

Oh, I very consider this! Most users will just buy a device and use it as it is, some will compare two or more devices and buy the one which looks like the better one... I myself would likely calibrate the screen against real images to compare against (if possible), because I am a bit picky when it

Looking for e-ink reader (7–8 inch) for manga reading – need advice!

I have been using PocketBook InkPad Color 3 for more than a year. The device is great, especially if you really need the color screen. Also, I have a newer and lighter Boox Go 7 with BW screen. PocketBook feels more consisted and polished device. Yes, it offers way less features than Boox and slower

Help me, im new and need to decide between pocketbook and kobo

You should also seriously look at the 8'' PocketBook InkPad Color 3. I know your decision is likely because of the design of the Era, but every inch more is better for reading manga/comics. Manual zooming is in no way e.g. comparable to a phone or tablet (even when you can use similar gestures on Po
