Looking E-reader(e-ink or color e-ink) with good screen
Hello, right now I'm using boox c67ml, but Its screen is a little bit too small for reading, because of that I'm looking for e-reader that has 6.8 or bigger screen [for reading books with pictures], also more than 200ppi. [Kobo aura hd looks pretty good but maybie there are better e-readers?]
Also I didn't want to create second thread so I will put it here- What I'm looking is e-ink reader [as mentioned above] or color e-ink reader with screen size also at least 6.8 and resolution of 200 or more and that would't be as slow as pocketbook color lux [also is color e-ink is same for eyes as e-ink?] My budget is +-200 Sorry for weird english and thanks in advace! |

The others color e-ink ereaders that you might see for sale out there, are not truly ereaders with E-ink screens, but normal cheap tablets that runs Linux or Android and are sold as ereaders. Those devices [1][2] have LCD screens, like the ones in a computer, mobile phone, etc. And there aren't any better to read with them than any of the others LCD screen. The only proper color e-ink ereader I know of is the Ectaco jetBook Color, which was later discontinued. If you absolutely want color, right now the solution is going with a normal screen, and before falling into the trap of the color e-reader, I will go with a known tablet from a recognized brand, be it an Android one like a Nexus or an Amazon Fire, an iPad, or whatever you feel comfortable with. Or even your smartphone of choice. Have a look at this thread here at Mobileread about this topic. And I think the better resolution I've seen is 300ppp in a screen of 6 inch (6", 1448x1072), so not bigger than your Onyx Boox C67ML in terms of size. The best part is that there are a handful of of options in that size: Amazon Paperwhite, Nook Glowlight Plus, Tolino Vision 3 HD, and the still-not-sold-worldwide Boyue T63 and the Onyx Boox Kepler Pro.

Thank You for answers, I appreciate it

Also, Thank You for warning about these tablets that are called 'e-book readers', and about normal screen tablet-already got it, but it hurts eyes be it night or day with various filters, and stuff. About these e readers that You recommended- 6' screen is just too small for reading, but T63 looks intresting. Quote:
Also, sorry, forgot to write currency- its in euros. Right now gonna wait for news about that 7.8 e reader from kobo, if it would seem that it's nothing good then will get h2o, thanks again! |
