10/10 ()

The only ereader that meets the requirements.

  • Simple operation
  • Adjustable font
  • The many possibilities

To replace my previous pocketbook, after five years the battery only lasted an hour. For me the best ereader, ease of use, easy to adapt to my wishes, a very nice device.

Basic e-reader without frills that does what it's supposed t

  • high-contrast image
  • easy to put books on
  • price
  • slow

I wanted a simple e-reader that I can simply put books on via the PC, with lighting in case there is not enough ambient light. I didn't need extras like buying books online or listening to audiobooks. This basic e-reader works fine. Nice clear image, easy to put books on. The lighting works but I haven't needed it yet, so I can't say much about that. The downside I think is that the e-reader is quite slow. Not when reading, turning pages is quite fast, but it is when you go to the main menu, or look up something in the dictionary, or go to a footnote. The English-English dictionary, the only one I have used so far, is also quite sparse. All in all, a good device for its price that does what it is supposed to do.

My luxury book

  • Image sometimes stutters slightly when starting up or quickly scrolling to another book.

It weighs very light and you can take many books with you on your holiday.
