Kobo is expected to release a new ebook reader later this year called the Kobo Clara HD. Yesterday one of Kobo’s Canadian retailers, Chapters.Indigo, uploaded the first video on YouTube showing the Kobo Clara HD. Unfortunately it’s not a real video, more like a commercial with computer generated images, but it does reveal some interesting […]

10.3-inch Onyx Boox Note Now Available at Amazon
The much-anticipated Onyx Boox Note is finally available to purchase from Amazon. The price is $549.99 with free shipping, and it’s available with Amazon Prime so you can get it with free 2-day delivery and have it by the end of the week.

Next New Kindle Should Be More Like Nook Glowlight 3
Here’s a crazy idea. What if Amazon basically took the Nook Glowlight 3 and used it as inspiration for the next new Kindle? The Nook doesn’t get much attention anymore, but the Nook Glowlight 3 actually has some nice things going for it. If the Kindle name was on the front instead of Nook, I […]
How Much Do Frontlights Drain Your eReader’s Battery?
There have been quite a few complaints about battery life on the new Kindle Oasis 2 not being as good as the Kindle Paperwhite and other ereaders. To me it doesn’t seem like a big difference, but then again I almost never have the frontlight set higher than 12 on the brightness meter, which is […]

The 10.3-inch models have a screen resolution of 1872 […]
New Jezetek eBook Readers, Includes First Frontlit 10.3-inch Model (Video)
I came across a video on YouTube showing some new ereaders from a company called Jezetek. I’ve never seen the brand being sold anywhere, not even on Chinese wholesale websites like Banggood, so they might only be sold in China and a few other countries but they’re somewhat similar to the Boyue ereaders so maybe […]

Onyx has some new E Ink reading devices that they’re showing off at the Hong Kong Electronics Fair. They posted some pictures of the new devices for 2018 on their Facebook page, with a list of specs for each. A couple models have already been released, like the Onyx Boox Max2 and Boox Note. They […]
Why Aren’t 9.7-inch E Ink eReaders More Common?
A long time ago there was once a Kindle with a large 9.7-inch E Ink screen called the Kindle DX. It lasted for two model generations before it was slowly phased out. It wasn’t an unpopular device. Most people seemed to like it quite a bit for what it was at the time; there weren’t […]
