Choosing your e-reader : how to ensure the best choice ?
After discovering a little more about your e-readers, do you plan to treat yourself to one ? Even if this is the basis before any purchase, you should know that when it comes to e-readers, you will need more than that to hope to make a good choice.
Indeed, you must first ask yourself certain questions to make sure you make an appropriate choice. By answering these questions, you will be sure to make your choice according to different criteria to take into account :
Rate
Here, the question to ask yourself will be what budget you can make available for your purchase. If you have a budget of less than $130, you can afford a good e-reader.
Nevertheless, if you wish to acquire an exceptional model, the budget that you will have to plan will have to be higher than 200 dollars. Otherwise, you can also have simple models from 99.99 dollars if you wish.
Screen size
As for eReader screen sizes, they start at 6 inches. However, you can go up to 10 inches if you wish. The difference between a 6-inch e-reader and an 8-inch or larger e-reader is that the latter comes with much better reading comfort.
Lighting
Most e-readers are designed with lighting so you can read at night. There are even recently new models that have a blue light filter.
Text-to-speech
Voice synthesis is a very advantageous option that makes it easier for readers to get started with the e-reader. Be aware that very few e-readers have this option. You can therefore take this into account when making your choice.
Water-proof
Do you like to read by the pool, at the beach, in your kitchen or even in your bedroom with a drink in hand? The ideal is to opt for waterproof e-readers. They are more expensive in terms of cost, but remain more solid in use.
The colour
Among the e-readers available, you will find some models with color screens. In addition to being few in number, these models remain the most expensive on the market. For example, you have the Pocketbook Color reader that you can buy in the United States.
