Now that Amazon has discontinued the Kindle Oasis and stopped selling it from their website (at least in the US; it’s still available from some international Amazon websites until they sell out), people are looking for an alternative to the Kindle Oasis. Fortunately, if you like the asymmetrical design of the Kindle Oasis with the […]

Looks Like There’s a Market for Smaller eReaders After All
For years I’ve been saying ereader companies like Amazon and Kobo should release smaller ebook readers that you can easily fit into a pocket to take with you everywhere, but instead it seems like most dedicated reading devices keep getting larger and heavier with each new generation. Onyx is one company that’s willing to try […]
What are the Most Durable Brands of eReaders?
When it comes to dedicated reading devices and eNote devices with E Ink screens, overall durability is a key factor to consider before buying one, but which brands are considered the most durable?

The eReader With the Best Screen in 2024

What Happened to Onyx’s 7.8″ Nova Line?
It looks like Onyx has decided to phase out their Nova line of ereaders and eNotes with 7.8-inch E Ink screens. I haven’t seen any Nova models available to purchase anywhere for quite some time, and Onyx didn’t release any new Nova models last year for the first time since the Nova line came out […]
When Will E Ink Screens Get Replaced by Something Better?
With the ability to mimic the look of paper, E Ink screens are truly a unique concept when you stop to think about it, especially black and white E Ink screens. But how long can the technology remain viable before it gets replaced by something else? Here we are in 2024 using highly-technical electronic devices […]
Onyx Still Updating Boox eReaders and eNotes from 4 Years Ago
Onyx gets a lot of flack for releasing new models every few months and replacing existing models after just 6-12 months on average, but I recently discovered that Onyx is still releasing software updates for models that were released over 4 years ago so that’s pretty cool. I was surprised to find the latest 3.5 […]
