I’ve been seeing a lot people posting pictures online lately of Kindles, Kobos, and other reading devices, including eNotes from Onyx, with cracked screens. The fact is ereader screens tend to break a lot easier than most other types of devices like phones and tablets with LCD and LED screens, and broken screens aren’t covered […]
