Honestly, I’m frustrated with where e-ink is going

I guess eInk devices have to find an area where they are actually better for everyone. Kindles did that. They are better than books in some regard: you can carry around many books and it is light and doesn't need much space you can increase the font size so you can read without glasses if you are a

Kobo vs Kindle

I’m a pretty dedicated Kobo owner but it’s largely personal preference. The Paperwhite is a really good device and Amazon’s ecosystem is very easy to use. There’s a reason that Amazon is basically the default ereader for a lot of people. I switched to Kobo for two reasons. First, the form factor of

What’s your favorite e-Reader and why?

Kobo Libra Colour. The built in Overdrive and Google Drive are handy. The UI is awesome. The ergonomics are much better than my Kindles. I’ve mostly stopped using Kindles now ( I’ve had them all including 1st gen and Oasis)

Scribe too much for everyday

I own an Oasis and Kindle Basic. I’ve held my friend PW before but never used it. The only way he can bring out is if he brings a bag along to carry it. Doesn’t fit in any of his pants pockets. I’m a guy and my Basic fits the front and back pockets of all of my pants and the breast pockets of all of

Sick of Colour E-Readers

I think too many people don't understand the trade-offs made with color in its current implementation, so shrug and figure "why not?" Color really only makes sense for people who actively consume color content. That said, I don't see evidence that ereader brands aren't still supporting B&W devices b

Bigme B7 Color - Excellent way to cut down social media use and spend your free time

Ohhh this looks nice. I have the same goals as you and recently got a Boox Palma. I really like it and it has def got me off my phone more, but it’s not as pleasant to read on as my old Kindle Oasis. But Oasis has the Amazon lock-in, and also is still microUSB charging. I was thinking of selling bot

Turns out 12 Years of E-Reader evolution doesn't mean much: PRS-T3 → Verse Pro Review

A couple of counterpoints... There have been studies that show better resolution does help with eye fatigue - up to a point. (That point is ~300 ppi, which is where pixelation is no longer visible to most eyes. Probably not coincidentally, B&W e-ink seems to have stabiliized at 300 ppi for the last

Ereader advice

Kindles tend to be the cheapest since unlike other brands, Amazon can afford to sell them for not a lot of profit (expecting most people with Kindles will buy the books from Amazon as well). Are you buying the books from Google Play Books or are they your own files acquired elsewhere that you just r
