Pros and cons

According to our e-reader expert
  • Thanks to the color screen, the e-reader is suitable for books or files with many images.
  • Listen to audio books, music, and podcasts via Bluetooth or the included 3.5mm adapter.
  • The small size of this e-reader allows you to easily read while on the go, for example on the train.
  • A charger adapter for charging isn't included, only a cable.
  • This e-reader is relatively small, so it's less comfortable to read than with a larger model.

Description

PocketBook has released the first e-reader with a color screen display, the PocketBook Color. You get the most out of the 6-inch color screen when you read comics or use your e-reader for work or studies for documents with images or color graphs, for example. Connect headphones via Bluetooth or the 3.5mm adapter and listen to your favorite audio books, podcasts, or other audio files. You have storage space for more than 10,000 e-books on the 16GB storage. With a memory card up to 32GB, you can expand the storage, so there is room for your entire digital bookcase. The e-reader is compact and weighs just 160g. This is lighter than the average smartphone. This allows you to easily take it with you anywhere.

Note: you can't read e-books from a Kobo Plus subscription on a PocketBook e-reader.

Good nice light reader, shame about blue light.

  • audio; having books read to you works with your earpods
  • color screen
  • light in the hand and weighs really nothing
  • bright blue light no night shift

I think it's a shame that this model doesn't have a SMARTLIGHT so that bright blue light in your eyes at night is a huge disappointment. Colors yes .. it is of no use to you, you can not put it on sepia. Really a shame night shift would have been nice. Great reader for an afternoon.

  • Brightness screen well adjustable
  • Lightweight, beautiful design
  • Not super fast with everything loading

The first one I bought had cures, crashed quickly, was not a success. Exchanged in the 30 day warranty. Second copy is much better, also nicer screen, clear. Pictures are also nicer graphically. Find the screen easy on the eyes and the brightness can be reduced very much, so it can be adjusted to your liking. You can also pair with bluetooth to an external speaker (useful for sound files). I can directly download purchases via, for example, bol. You should not compare the internet browser with a tablet in terms of speed. But you have an e-reader mainly for reading, it's nice for that.

  • Most independent brand

  • Disturbing Grid

I didn't have high expectations for the color rendering, but it seemed like a nice addition compared to using my 'current' Lux. The color reproduction is what I thought, but fine. The big setback was a permanently visible grid on top of the 'normal' eInk, and a much darker screen. The 'normal' black and white use is therefore a step back, and I don't have that so the device was returned.
