Kobo or Boox: Which did you choose? FAQ feedback appreciated.
If you want to run any app what is out there, get an Android e-reader. Makes it can be a Kindle, Pocketbook, Kobo, Libby (using all accounts), it can be whatever you want including Koreader + no need to make file conversions. And it handles PDF files like a dream. Also comics and manga will be way s

[MOAAN:True Color E-ink Paper Tablet with Mag Charging Cover] Update today makes it no longer in color
If you don’t care about the stylus, then I personally own the Bigme B6 and love it. It has some weird UI and crappy baked in software, but it has Google Play out of the box so all I had to do was install Niagara Launcher and regular useful apps and it’s perfect. All of the buttons can be remapped, t

Bit stuck—don’t want a kindle or a kobo
You might be better off with an android eink ereader since you can download the Kindle and Libby apps directly from the Google Play Store. I assume you're in Canada since you mentioned you don't have access to Libby on Kindle, so I'm not sure if you can find an android ereader for less than $200 CAD

Boox or Kobo?
I own a Bigme B6 Color because I like to take it anywhere and 6" works for me, I also own a white Xteink X4 and a Kindle Paperwhite SE. With Wifi and BT off, I get up to 10 days, the non Android will go 3 weeks or more But it charges pretty fast, and it's a fast e-reader itself.

Thoughts about Bigme B6
I was checking: Bigme B6 Color Kobo Clara Colour Pocketbook Verse Pro Color Boox Go 7 Gen II (too expensive for me here at $ 375.00) I went for the black B6 Color because it can run any app out there for an e-reader, has Google Play store, it is fast and has a MicroSD slot up to 1TB. And ... it read

Haven't bought an ereader in 13 years looking for recommendations
This is a good sum-up! I want to add that generally text is less clear on colour readers. I don't have enough technical knowledge to explain why, but something to do with lower PPI. On Android based tablet like the Bigme B6/By colour you can turn off the colour via developer options, but I am not su

Bigme B6 color is so terrible
I was disappointed when I first received my Bigme B6 Color as well. So I get where you're coming from with your concerns. A few things that helped me grow to like it: LocalSend works like a charm to send files (images, APKs, books) from my Mac to the Bigme. The default reader is not good. KOReader i

Boox go 6 vs Clara BW vs other
I have the bigme b6, it has a magnetic cover. It will shut the screen off, after around an hour it will shut the whole power off. But you can set it so it stays on. The new b6 is android 14, 4+64 memory, color, on board speaker. Much better then the go 6. I'm hoping in a few months that boox will co

Recommendations for expandable storage ereaders
I ordered a black Bigme B6 Color a few days ago and it is shipped. You can install a MicroSD up to 1TB. Paid $ 160.00 shipped. Now it is Android so battery life is less but it goes a week plus. It also exists in B/W

6 inch Kobo Clara vs Boox Go 6
Don't buy the boox go 6. It's old and slow. If you want a android 6 inch, look at the bigme b6. It is now available in color and b&w. Different between the boox and bigme, boox is 2 +32 memory, android 11. 2.0 cpu, 1500 mah battery, no speaker. Bigme 4 + 64 memory, android 14, 2.4 cpu, 3000mha batte
