E-readers

Gonna buy e-reader tomorrow from a local shop.

These are the ones available: Amazon Kindle PaperWhite 2015, Kobo Aura 2nd Ed, Kobo Aura H20, Kobo Aura One, Amazon Kindle PaperWhite,

I was thinking of picking the largest, Aura One, but does Veeky Forums have any recommendations out of these?

Avoid Kindle like the plague. The size doesn't matter, unless you plan on reading something like manga with it, in which case definitely get the biggest one you can find. Otherwise it's just preference.

I saw my friend using Kindle and it looked v. small but I guess I will see in the shop tomorrow.

I just enjoy having lots of text in one page when I read. Weird preference, but makes it easier to read the text since you can scroll back and forth without turning pages..

>Avoid Kindle like the plague.
Why?

but mummy i like my kindle 5 touch i have been reading in the shed for 4-6 hours every day

Got a kindle to read all my pirated books but I sit in front of a screen all day at work so after a couple months I went back to buying dead tree books. So I would say consider your eyes and lifestyle as well as the size and price.

you didn't have an e ink kindle then lol idiot

A kindle isn't any more harmful to your eyes than regular books.

I got a kindle paper white 2015 about 2 months ago. I do not know if its placebo or not, but I definitely feel that ive read more. And if i havent read more i have definitely read more of what i really want.

I find the kindle's feature of being able to email a file to it very convenient. You might need calibre to convert from .epub to .mobi but that does not seem like such a waste of time considering youre saving 10 bucks every book you convert.

All in all i do not regret buying it.

I took the kindle paperwhite. Much better than the first priced one that I also have. I read a lot with them. Since I'm gonna move a lot, I giving or throwing all my ordinary books. So yeah. Pick the paperwhite.
