Електронні книги в Україні

У мене Kindle Paperwhite вже років 5 - чудова читалка, доволі швидка, ніяких проблем немає. Але якщо буду обирати наступну, то скоріше за все візьму Kobo, бо цікаво порівняти з Кіндлом. Але важливо розуміти, де ви плануєте брати електронні книжки українською. Не всі видавництва пропонують електронні

Best color e-reader

I have a Kobo Libra Colour and have been reading comics for the past month. I like it quite a lot but some text can be a little small so I will need to pinch to zoom sometimes. I would love to have a Boox Note Air 5C since it has a larger screen but it's too expensive and not worth the upgrade for m

First-time buyer, looking for ereader recs

I unfortunately don’t know what e-reader could be best for you but just to be aware, (almost) every e-reader that has been released nowadays has frontlight—which is different than backlight—which you can turn off by putting it to 0% if you don’t want that. E-ink displays are expensive. The boox note

BOOX support has been dragging my case for almost a month instead of giving a real solution

Dead zones on eink devices are not unusual. If Boox don't know what the problem is, then that says a lot about the company. It's a bad look. I won't be buying one now. I was looking at the note air 5c. It's expensive. Not going to risk my money

Why hasn’t anyone launched a Kickstarter for an 8-inch e-ink device that’s actually open source, with generous storage and no ecosystem lock-in? Feels like there’s a real gap here. If someone executed it well, it could seriously shake up the whole Kindle/Kobo duopoly.

This. I've tried a Onyx / Boox which is similar in the sense that it's not subsidised by taking a big cut of book sales. It was expensive, clunky, and had crap build quality in comparison to my Kindles. Not fun to use, even though I liked the form factor and features.

Please Pin the Megathread Post

I have no interest in software support or a faster device. I have a computer. And doubling is hyperbole, not a price target. The point is that the fewer caveats that I have to add when recommending an Onyx Boox device to someone, the fewer issues I have to warn people about, the more the price can r

When are the reviews for the Poke 7 coming out?

I use a Tab Mini C, and 4gb is barely enough. Copying a passage I read using Libby and pasting it to Obsidian is frustratingly slow. Or if I read something I find interesting with Readest and want to follow up and search using Firefox, again - it's sluggish. If all I wanted is a single e-reading app

Libri cartacei o in formato digitale?

Su questo non so aiutarti moltissimo perché io ho un Onyx Boox (che è proprio un tablet con Android, spenderesti soldi inutilmente perché fa molte più cose). Se non sbaglio i migliori sono Kindle (che è proprio di Amazon, quindi è perfettamente integrato col negozio di Amazon, permettendoti di compr

Comparing reading on physical paper to reading on an e-reader, Boox Note Air 5C. I can now read for much longer without eye fatigue, paperless, note-taking, a dictionary with just one touch and AI to explain concepts instantly. Life has never been this easy as an intellectual 🤓

It would be easier to know your use case and I could say which I think is better and why.. I’ll start off with.. boox is an android device so it’s more customizable. More use cases. Kindle scribe color soft is note taking. Reading. Light web browsing. I’ve had the boox air 5c.The bigger one I forgot

Need help to choose an E-Reader.

How good is BOOX Go Color 7 ? I think the screen is a bit small for studying. Note Air 5c just slams my budget.
