If you are looking for an eReader this Christmas, there is one from Europe - Pocketbook/Vivlio
I bought a PocketBook InkPad Color 3 a year ago and wanted to love it but it's a frustrating device. It is so insanely slow. Navigating menus to do anything other than turn pages in a book made me mad. Especially frustrating because other manufacturers manage to make their eReaders snappy. I switche

Pocketbook doesn't need KOReader
I have the opposite experience. I have a Kobo Libra 2 and a Pocketbook Inkpad Colour 3. I never understood the Koreader hype when I only had the Kobo. Pocketbook for me is unusable with its stock UI. I was actually going to sell it before putting Koreader on it. Bizarrely it’s super sluggish if you

Pocketbook vs Kobo & Kindle
I own a Pocketbook Inkpad Color 3 and I love my device. I had in the past Kindle for many years and my wife has a Kobo, so I know other brands very well. Pocketbook devices have good quality and the software works without problems. The best thing is that with the Pocketbook app you can sync your boo

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

Which ereader has web browser
I prefer using PocketBook InkPad Color 3 more, because there are no distractions and it's a better device for reading.

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

Got a B751C S to replace my Kobo : pretty disapointed
PocketBook are the worst ereaders for manga. no right to left mode no double page spreads management zoom is so slow you cannot use it I had the Inkpad Colour 3 and it was just bad for this use. And they don't even allow you to make notes with a stylus. The KLC is already 32Go which is nice and more

I absolutely love the integration of Koreader with Pocketbook.
I have both a Kobo Libra Colour and a PocketBook Inkpad Color and without Koreader, I feel the PocketBook would almost be unusable. The native UI is so so slow. Thankfully, koreader makes it usable.

How long does your battery last on the Pocketbook Inkpad Color 3?
My InkPad 4 - which has a smaller battery than the InkPad 3 colour - definitely lasts weeks (but also doesn't need light in daytime, since the screen is brighter). At this point I have the suspicion that some PocketBooks have in some cases a problem with the software regarding how full a battery is

Simple question: it's PB better than Kobo? Why?
Both are solid choices for escaping Amazon's ecosystem, but here's the key difference: PocketBook runs on Linux and natively supports more formats out of the box (including EPUB, MOBI, PDF, DJVU, and many others) without conversion. Kobo is more restrictive with native formats but has excellent inte
