Pros and cons

According to our e-reader expert
  • You can easily read on the go with this compact e-reader, like on a train.
  • With a 156g weight, you can easily take this e-reader with you in your bag.
  • You can use both the touchscreen and the buttons to control your e-reader.
  • The e-reader can't play audio files, so you can't listen to audiobooks.
  • You're less likely to read in the bath or near a pool as this e-reader isn't water-resistant.

To replace my previous pocketbook, after five years the battery only lasted an hour. For me the best ereader, ease of use, easy to adapt to my wishes, a very nice device.

  • slow

I wanted a simple e-reader that I can simply put books on via the PC, with lighting in case there is not enough ambient light. I didn't need extras like buying books online or listening to audiobooks. This basic e-reader works fine. Nice clear image, easy to put books on. The lighting works but I haven't needed it yet, so I can't say much about that. The downside I think is that the e-reader is quite slow. Not when reading, turning pages is quite fast, but it is when you go to the main menu, or look up something in the dictionary, or go to a footnote. The English-English dictionary, the only one I have used so far, is also quite sparse.
All in all, a good device for its price that does what it is supposed to do.

It weighs very light and you can take many books with you on your holiday.
