Amazon’s full lineup of Kindles are on sale again, and the prices are the same as they were last month during Prime Day, but this time the sales aren’t available through Amazon. Best Buy is doing their Black Friday in July sale, and all Kindles are deeply discounted, at least the ones that are still […]
Boox Go 6 Gen II Now Available to Order From Onyx’s Amazon Store
Onyx has finally listed the Boox Go 6 Gen II for sale on their official Amazon store, marking the first time that Onyx has sold their 6″ Poke/Go models directly on Amazon instead of using some mystery 3rd-party merchant. The bad news is the shipping date is still two months out, although that’s likely a […]
New XTEINK X4 Pro and X4 Gen 2 Details Leaked Online
It’s no secret that Xteink is planning on releasing a new ereader next week. There have been a number of leaks online, and Xteink even has a placeholder page up on their website for the new X4 Pro. The Xteink X4 Pro is what a lot of people have been waiting for, with the addition […]
Libby on PocketBook eReaders is Poorly Implemented
I decided to test out the Libby “app” on the PocketBook Era Lite today for borrowing ebooks from public libraries, and at first I thought it’s was going to be an upgrade over how Kobo handles library lending on their ereaders, but unfortunately there are some roadblocks that hamper the overall experience. Using the Libby […]
XTEINK’s Software is a Buggy Mess That’s Literally Unusable

Kobo eReaders Are Way Overdue for a Design Update
Last week I posted about how Onyx keeps re-releasing the same devices over and over again, and it’s kind of the same story with Kobo. It’s been a long time since they put any real effort into designing a new model, and whenever they do come out with something new they usually abandon it after […]
Boox Devices Have Become Too Derivative and Uninteresting
I don’t know what’s going on with Onyx lately, but their current lineup of Boox devices has become really stale and boring. They just keep re-releasing the exact same products over and over and over again with minor changes. They haven’t come up with any new ideas since the original Palma came out in 2023. […]
