Ereader Recs - Dumb it down for me
You say you want easy, good b/w screen with front & backlight, and ability to sync across devices. You say you don't want complicated work- arounds, and you want easy library access A 6" easy to handle e-reader that's light and has tons of features (if you want them), and very important, a well buil

How’s e-readers affected your life? Share your history and experience of using e-readers!
l'm relatively new to e-readers, but I’ve always been a borderline bookworm. I read a lot tons of filming watching and TV series visited the libraries often when I was younger, to manage the budget for entertainment of course and had a decent physical book collection. I started downsizing it in my 3

Anyone here pocketbook user? Please review your pocketbook e-reader. Is BW better than color version? What about battery consumption for both version?
Hello, for normal eBook Reading BW gives a sharper, clearer reading experience, unless you read lots of colored Manga, BW is the way to Go. Color: reduced contrast, screen door effect due to the extra color layer. Also what i noticed on my Pocketbook Verse is that the default reading app has problem

What made you choose PocketBook over Kindle?
I switched from a kindle to a Pocketbook. Mostly, it had to do with customization and buttons. I wanted a six inch eReader with buttons. I loved that I could set it to tap on either side of the screen and go forward in my book. I liked that there were a variety of options for getting books onto the

Why do some people own multiple ereaders?
Pretty much anybody who has multiple is a hobbiest to some extent, but the reasons for owning multiple vary pretty wildly. I have 3 devices (Kobo Clara 2E, Pocketbook Verse Pro, Paperwhite 10th generation). The Clara 2E was my original device and was gifted to me. Unfortunately, it has an extremely

Spoilt for choice: PocketBook Verse Pro (BW) vs PocketBook Era (BW)
I never touched a Kindle and won't likely ever, so I can't tell you anything objectively comparison-wise. I have an InkPad 4 (same screen as the Era, so Carta 1200 and a flush glass front) and had a PocketBook Verse (Carta 1000; while the standard Verse only has 212ppi, the Pro also has 300ppi like

Help with choosing!
Kobo Clara BW. Small, waterproof, adjustable warm light, and while Kobo store is first-class, you can buy from other ADE or DRM free stores, and transfer them over using a computer. PocketBook Verse Pro is also a good option, and a computer isn't required for ADE books over there, but the display is

Pocketbook Era color after a week or so
I had the Pocketbook Verse and I ultimately came to the same conclusion. On paper? Everything seemed incredible. Seamless KOReader integration, opening books into its interface directly through library. Native Adobe DRM support for us Europeans who don’t have Overdrive/Libby option for local librari

It's been twelve amazing years, my beloved PRS-T3 🫡
PocketBook Verse is nice, it's light but not really "cheap" feeling. A LOT of features. Kobo is always a solid choice. The Aura Edition2 onwards is good. Clara HD onwards if you want a warm light.
