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

Cei care spuneti ca cititi digital, pe kindle si prin alte mediumuri - ce carti ati citit in 2025?

Detectez o oarecare nota de ironie in post-ul tau, si nu inteleg exact cauza. Eu sunt o cititoare avida si pur si simplu spatiul pe care il am la dispozitie pentru carti fizice este limitat. Alte persoane poate au deficiente de vedere sau dislexie iar un e-reader iti permite sa customizezi fontul, t

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)

Advantages of reading on ereader instead of phone?

The eink screen is easier on the eyes and I find it more comfortable when reading for longer periods of time. Since it’s only for reading there’s no distractions, I’m not tempted to respond to notifications like am on my phone. I have the kobo libra colour and I’m very happy with it. It’s comfortabl

Cheap colored ereader

I could be wrong but I think there’s only 2 coloured ereaders available. Quite wrong, yes. :-) Kindle Colorsoft, Kobo Clara Colour, Kobo Libra Colour, PocketBook Verse Pro Colour, PocketBook Era Colour, PocketBook Inkpad 3 Colour, and a gazillion of Android eInk devices just to start with, from Boox

Best budget (least expensive) color E-reader that uses an E-ink display?

Honestly, you just think you want to read comics on e-ink. Realistically, it's not really there yet. and a 6" or 7" reader is just too small, you would want an 8' color tablet at a minimum, in my opinion. Some will say a 7" reader is good enough, but it seems tiny to me. A tablet is still the best f

Does anyone regret getting a color ereader

Im currently selling my KLC, I have kobo clara bw, but its too small, so will be selling that too. I ordered libra 2 from ebay, so I will very much likely stick to that, its that sweet spot between libra colour and clara bw device.

Kindles and DRM...take 2...a more visual version of yesterday's list...probably should have done it this way to start

My Kobo Libra Colour arrived yesterday, and by evening I had installed KOReader (no jb needed), set a one touch gesture in left bottom corner to activate night mode, and generally played with the plethora of settings. In "help" you can search for a setting keyword, and it will respond with the optio

What e-reader do you recommend?

I just got the Kobo Libra Colour and love it. I had the Clara B&W, which I thought was nice too. I prefer the size of the Libra, but to be honest, you'll be pleased with either.
