Is anyone actually using an SD card?

I almost exclusively read Manga and I "only" have 32gb build in without a SD card slot, which is unfortunately not enough. It is cheap for manufacturers to build in and I can't understand they don't give this flexibility to users tbh. I'm using a PocketBook InkPad Color 3.

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

Viwoods e reader colour.

If you need colour for images, then perhaps. If you read mostly text, then stick to black and white. I have a PocketBook InkPad Colour 3. The colour screen is alright, but black and white eReaders are just much better for reading at the current state of eInk technology.

Smartphone-less set-up at work

PocketBook InkPad Color 3. Colors aren't vibrant, they look like printed on a newspaper, but it allows me to read comics on the go and that's enough for me. It weights more than other ereaders, tho, so it's really unpleasant to have it fall on one's face when reading in bed.

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

Kobo vs Boox vs Pocketbook

I'm really enjoying the Kobo Libra Colour. I had a Kindle Paperwhite Signature edition, traded that in with Amazon to get the Kindle Scribe and found I never used it and it was just too big for ereading. I really wanted a color e-ink to start reading some children's books with my kid and decided I n

Choosing my first pb

This gets a bit complicated, especially If you never had used a colour and a black & white ereader. And especially because returning a device will just cause hassles I guess. You should first decide if you want a colour ereader or a black and white one. This is not just about colour yes/no. The only

Moving from 623 to Inkpad Color or Verse color?

The question colour or not can only be answered by yourself, and you already did it. If you are willing to accept the disadvantages, try it out. Even if you find people who agree that it's worth switching to colour, you could be disappointed, and even when I tell you I would never buy a colour devic

Pocketbook InkPad 3 - issues with breaking? past experiences?

A mi Pocketbook, InkPad color 3, también se le rompió la pantalla sin ningún golpe. Está en garantía todavía, pero su servicio técnico quiere cobrarme 180 euros por cambiarla. Solución: por menos dinero, me he comprado un ereader de otra marca. Nunca más compraré nada de la marca PocketBook porque e

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.
