With the upcoming release of the new Kobo Aura One, I thought it would be interesting to post a roundup of all the 8-inch E Ink ebook readers that are currently available on the market. There aren’t very many options, however. A couple are the same device with different names, and others like the PocketBook […]

New 6-inch Kobo Aura 2 Getting Released in September
In addition to the 7.8-inch Kobo Aura One that Kobo announced today, they also have a new 6-inch Kobo Aura that’s getting released at the same time. Like the Aura One, it will go up for pre-order starting August 30th and will be released on September 6th, according to the press release. The new 6-inch […]
Kobo Aura One Officially Revealed, Sells for $229
Kobo pulled the veil off their latest ebook reader today, the much-anticipated 7.8-inch Kobo Aura One. It won’t get released until September 6th but pre-orders start on August 30th (kind of a weird way to announce the release a new product—make people wait 2 weeks before they can order it). Nevertheless, the Kobo Aura One […]
New PocketBook InkPad 2 with 8-inch E Ink Screen Released
PocketBook, the ebook reader company most people have never heard of, has released a new 8-inch ebook reader called the PocketBook InkPad 2, the e-reader for successful people (according to the press release). It’s an updated version of the previous InkPad, of course. The new model has an improved screen, a lighter design, and physical […]

Onyx Releases 6.8-inch Onyx Boox T67 Plus, an Updated T68
I noticed a new 6.8-inch Onyx Android ereader for sale at Banggood called the Onyx Boox T67 Plus. It’s not new exactly; it’s an updated version of the T68. I reviewed the original Onyx Boox T68, the Lynx branded version, back in July 2014. Not much has changed since then. The software is still Android […]
How Much Storage Space do eBook Readers Really Need?
With the upcoming release of the Kobo Aura One, it got me thinking about how it’s starting to become the standard for ebook readers to come without memory card slots. Amazon was the first to ditch memory cards, of course. The 1st Kindle was the only model to have one. Then B&N followed suit with […]
7.8-inch Kobo Aura One Details and Pics Leaked
Whenever Kobo gets set to release a new ereader, the details always turn up somewhere online from a small retailer before the official announcement is made. And that’s exactly what’s happened again today with the new 7.8-inch Kobo Aura One. Most of the specs and a couple of pictures turned up on a Dutch website. […]
