Is Kobo the best non-Amazon e-ink reader out there?
For any Europeans, we have the Tolino which, IIRC, are just Kobos running their own Android based OS.
I wouldn’t use it.
I don’t love using Chinese software that I’ve seen claimed doesn’t follow the GPL, but anything that isn’t Android is way too much of a downgrade for me to tolerate.
As someone who purchased a waterproof Kobo Clara Colour for less than this and is enjoying 3rd party add-ons like KOReader, why the hell would I pay more for Amazon DRM?
Because grandparents exist and some people find it easier to sandbox them into a proprietary environment rather than teach them how to use better but slightly more complicated tech
Yeesh… Wouldn’t it be better just to get a good tablet?
E-ink isn’t the same as LCD. It’s not remotely comparable for static content.
Now, I prefer my Android reader to Kindle’s awful software, but LCD/OLED isn’t a good substitute.
I’m still on the kindle paper white, didn’t even know E-Ink was a thing so I’ll have to look into it I guess. I think I’ll drop the kindle though, the software does suck.
