I replaced my shitty kindle with a boox note air 6c. Writing on it is surprisingly good. It displays pdf's really well without the formatting issues I had with the shitdle

your fake ipad looks like it'd get heavy in the hands in long reading sessions
also buy an ad fgt
>>
>>110287038
i did but you have adblock on. you made me do this.
>>
>>110286971
I’ve always wanted an e reader but I don’t read so it’s kind of worthless.
>>
>>110286971
It would be nice it they (kindle, kobo) could just release a light portable dumb terminal with a e-ink screen that could locally or remotely connect to a regular PC or phone. Which is to say, like a portable e-ink monitor.

I use my bigme color with a keyboard to ssh into my home server. It works fairly well.

>>110286971
why do people even bother with e-reader over a decent tablet
>b-but i want to read without le distractions :(
nigga literally just turn off the internet, do you even know what the airplane icon does
you're paying the same (or even more) for literally less
>>
>>110287107
screens hurt to look at all day. the idea of eink is to make something that resembles physical paper.
take your itoddler talmudic trash somewhere else.
>>
>>110286971
hmm maybe i never used my kindle because it was too small that bigger screen looks a lot more appealing
>>
>>110287107
My e-reader gets at least 2 weeks of charge, it’s great when travelling
>>
>>110286971
The note air 6 looks really good. But
>built-in mic
>fingerprint scanner
>company got accused of spying before
If I get one I can't ever let this thing online, huh?
>>
>>110288424
Usecase for an internet capable book?
>>
Kindle form factor is so you can keep it up with 1 hand for several hours while reading novels
>>
>>110288485
JP stores all have their own apps and most regular nip literature is too niche for pirate sites.

Battery lasts too little
>>
>>110286971
>look up e-readers
>$400
Looks like the memory apocalypse hit them too, huh.
>>
>>110287107
Battery and the e-ink screen is just better for reading. I say this as someone who was willing to read eBooks on a PSP screen as a kid.

I was thinking of getting a e-ink display to read my PDFs and documents from my PC like normally without having to print. How good is the PPI and color rendering? I was considering a BOOX Go 10.3 or a Kobo Libra 2, Kindle is locked down so I need something that is high PPI and can let me drop my files in.

I've been thinking the same for 5 years and I still haven't acted on it. What I'm trying to say is, I second this question.

anything below 11 inches is unusable

only scrbe is worth shit
>>
>>110286971
Okay

>>110290044
you can get an oled tablet to read comics
>>

grow up

I'm just getting an ipad desu.
I had to bite the bullet unfortunately. It's strictly for reading only.

Acer announced a portable monitor recently, but they haven't revealed the specific display technology yet. Since they are calling it epaper and not e-ink at least it's clearly not Kaleido or Spectra. They are also claiming 60hz, but until they show a video where you can see cursor movement that doesn't mean much.

>>110290319
oleds are only good for watching videos and playing games, the oled text rendering is worse than the cheapest TFT
>>
>>110291717
their ppi is really high.
