I'm looking to add another symmetrical button ereader to my line up with a budget of 30$. I'd like it to sideload books as simply as it is to do with my Kindles. If it helps, I use Calibre on Windows 10 and am decently tech savvy. Moreso if I have directions to follow. I am undecided if it needs to have a backlight or not. Storage wise I always like to have most storage possible on my other devices but I'm in the dark when it comes to e readers. Also preferably a device in the 6in size please.
Those are really my only parameters but feel free to tell me if I should be asking more things to get a better pick. I've never used a Nook before but if the software or reading ui has quirks that's okay. Last edited by Scoob; Today at 12:59 AM.

I'm not a Nook user, but from what I've read in this forum, a good choice would be Nook Glowlight 3 from 2017.
No idea if you can get it for 30$, though. Last edited by Sirtel; Today at 12:07 PM. |

Nook Glowlight 3 is excellent. The amber lighting is also good for bedtime reading. I've had no problems sideloading.

I concur. The Glowlight 3 is a great device. Comfortable to hold, a nice screen and the adjustable warm light is wonderful. If you can snag one in good condition for under $30, I'd say it's a steal.
