"Love it"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I finally bought an e-reader because I've a growing list of books to read that are out of print. Things I like: configurable touchscreen – e.g. I tap left to turn the page because I usually hold in my left hand; I can borrow ebooks from Auckland Libraries; orange light for night time use (supposedly better for sleep); waterproof – yet to test; the sleep cover (not included) puts it to sleep when you close it; big screen size. Dislike: battery goes a bit quicker than I'd like; sometimes a bit slow after turning it on or waking; the automatic light option sometimes doesn't work as I'd expect; not the cheapest. My first reader so I don't have anything to compare with, but all in all I'm very happy. And I got it delivered the same day – can't wait for new toys! :)

This is a great E-Reader, however is a little pricy for a 2 year old product.

  • It has excellent battery life.
