EBook Reader Review - Determining The Perfect Reader Amongst The Top Most Models Offered
eBook readers have revolutionized the way consumers collect and view books, magazines and news. In this article I dig into the top ebook readers for sale on the market today.
There are several criteria buyers should study when you review ebook readers. Amongst the top features to think about are screen size, screen type, battery longevity, recharge time, storage space, weight, overall size, wireless capabilities, and file formats recognized.
In my reviews, I take into consideration the Amazon Kindle 2 and Kindle DX, the Barnes and Noble Nook, Sony's Reader Touch PRS-600 and PRS-700, and Astak's EZ Readers. There are many others, and we will analyze those in due time, but my intention is to grant the reader a little sample with an explanation of feature comparisons so that they can hit the market girded with some basic knowledge about ebook readers.
In my opinion, capabilities like the touchscreen, screen size and type and wireless capabilities should be your primary concern when comparing eBook reader models. The next thing to consider is the fact that some of the eBook readers have hundreds of thousands of titles out there while other readers can only read a few books. If the earlier features meet with your standards, then you should ultimately consider price and support.
The Kindle and Sony offerings are rated very well by a number of online sources. The blend of characteristics on these models plus the cheap price point makes them attractive models. All readers feature the E-Ink screen. Only the Kindle and a single Atsak model boast "text-to-speech" to permit the device to read to you. The Sony models feature a touch screen for a more interactive user experience. All models have a healthy nearly 2 week battery life with different charging times, but nearly all are close to 3 or 4 hours. There are small differences in the file types that each ebook model can accept.
