GrandNeko40 · 03-16-2024, 02:38 PM

i'm looking for a tiny reader that i can easily fit in my pocket (like, a jeans pocket) and really, truly take with me everywhere.

i own a Kobo Libra 2, and i absolutely love it -- but sometimes i want something even more compact, because its dimensions are somewhat unwieldy when i want to leave the house without a sling, pouch, backpack, or other bag.

i bought a Boox Palma, and it's a really great size... but my ideal tiny reader would be one that doesn't run a full-fat android fork. just a device running a reading-only OS/frontend with epub support, 2+ week battery, and semi-modern specs (reasonable screen refresh rate, etc).

anybody know of something like this on the market?
