#VERGLEICH BOOKREADER SOFTWARE#

epub (don't know if this has changed since) Both make it easy to bring in books from their own stores, but both could also connect to the computer and have them transferred over. To be honest, it is not hard to get books on to either of them regardless of source. The following points are the main differences I have noticed, but with the context that my kindle was an extremely old edition (probably about 8 years ago, I had the option to buy one of the ancient ones with a keyboard). I used to have a Kindle, and now have a Kobo. The Tolino Vision 4 HD is the closest to Paperwhite features while not being Amazon, but it seems to be restricted to Germany and hence not well known. Apparently there are two quite convinced and quite convincing parties here. I enjoyed reading all your perspectives, even though I have to admit I'm not closer to making a decision yet. Thanks for reading, I appreciate any advice.Įdit: Thanks everyone for your input. And I anticipate I'd read a lot of sideloaded/converted epubs but as far as I have seen that seems to work with all of them equally well, right? Last things: I don't think I'd need audiobooks. Also looks a little clunky, not sure about the general feel/usability of it. Seems to be doing everything, while also being a bit niche. Any other advice for the software? Anything you consider dealbreakers? I have to admit, some of the dictionary/translation options on the Kindle do look quite useful. The Tolino one seems to be considered the most basic, even more so than the Kobo, with Kindle at the top.

#VERGLEICH BOOKREADER SOFTWARE#

Since I've never had an ebook reader I don't know how important the software is.

Or is that because it is an obscure German brand without a US equivalent for this specific model? Are there reasons to avoid it? I'm just confused as to why it is not mentioned more often. However, the Tolino Vision 4 HD is two years old now, so in smartphone terms usually nothing you'd easily look past, but I appreciate that this works differently for ebook readers. I'd prefer the water resistance and the flat front of the Vision 4 as opposed to the Shine 3. Do you people with a Paperwhite find this noticeable/annoying?Įveryone seems to be comparing the Kobo Clara HD/Tolino Shine 3 to the Kindle Paperwhite, even though the Tolino Vision 4 HD seems to be the one with feature parity to the Kindle. Reading in the dark/in bed when the rest of my family is asleep is important to me and I'm worried that the Paperwhite's absence of a warm night light would bother me in the long run. I would have gone for the Kindle, were it not for the absence of color temperatur adjustments (which basically everyone else seems to have). Kindle Paperwhite, Kobo Clara HD ( Tolino Shine 3 I'm in Germany), Tolino Vision 4 HD (I was unable to find out what other (Kobo?) model this is based on), Pocketbook Touch HD 3. From what I've gathered my best options are: Since then I've done some research and now I know of several alternatives but have trouble deciding. I had been set on a Kindle Paperwhite initially. I hope this is OK to post here, I haven't found a general ereader subreddit with a meaningful number of members and most general threads on this topic I've seen were in r/books. I'm looking to buy my first ebook reader and I'd love to hear your advice as I'm a little bit confused by the options I've found. How important are software and night light? What else to keep in mind? TL DR: Can't decide between Kindle and Kobo/Tolino.
