This post I want to introduce you the best 3 ebook reader reviews.
These reviews give us the detail informations of functions and designs.
I hope this post help anyone who want and plan to buy the ebook reader.
1. Kindle Paper Reviw
The Kindle Paperwhite is the first ebook reader from Amazon to incorporate a frontlight for reading in lower lighting conditions. The light also gives the screen more of a white appearance than previous Kindles, hence the name Paperwhite. There are four different sub-models available. The ad-supported Wi-Fi model sells for $119, and the model with 3G wireless costs $179. Both are available for $20 more without ads (Amazon calls them Special Offers). If you get an ad-supported model and decide you don't care for the Special Offers, you can pay the extra $20 to remove them.
Pros
- The LED frontlights and E Ink display combine to make the Paperwhite's screen readable in all lighting conditions.
- It feels well-built and comfortable to hold, and the design is much improved over last year's Kindle Touch—it's thinner, better balanced, and doesn't have an overly-recessed screen for the IR touchscreen anymore.
- The Paperwhite has a few exclusive software features that other Kindles don't have, including additional font types, a reading progress estimator, and instant translations.
- Amazon finally added the option to view your library as book covers on the homescreen instead of just a list.
Cons
- The frontlighting isn't perfectly uniform across the screen, and some screens show discolorations in certain lighting conditions.
- Amazon removed all audio support on this model, including text-to-speech, and also cut the storage space in half from last year's Kindle Touch.
- The black outer casing shows smudges, crud, and dust more than previous Kindles.
- They made the screensaver ads more annoying by requiring you to swipe the screen to bypass them after hitting the power button to turn the Kindle on out of sleep mode—it's a two step process now, and gets irritating after a while, even if you want the Special Offers to get deals.
2. Google Nexus 7 Review
The Nexus 7 is Google's first entrant into the crowded field of Android tablets. It's also the first tablet to ship with Google's latest mobile operating system, Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. There are two variants of the Nexus 7. One has 8GB of storage space and sells for $199; the other has 16GB of storage space and costs $249. While it carries the Google name, the Nexus 7 is actually built and serviced by Asus, who is no stranger to Android tablets with their popular Transformer brand.
Pros
- Solid build quality and superior hardware for the price.
- Great design. It's thin and lightweight, making it easily portable and very comfortable to hold. Plus the soft stippled texture on the back is a really nice touch.
- Operating system is extremely smooth and zippy, not to mention open and highly customizable.
- The 1280 x 800 IPS screen looks great, and is especially good for reading because text is super-clear and crisp, even really tiny text.
- The free stuff: $25 gift card for Google Play, free Transformers Dark of the Moon movie, some free magazines and music (this appears to be a limited time offer, however).
Cons
- Very limited amount of offline storage space. There's no question the lack of an SD card slot is the biggest con (a rooted Nexus 7 supports SD cards through a USB cable with StickMount installed).
- Limited video playing capabilities. Between the lack of an HDMI port and the meager storage space, the Google Nexus 7 gets bested by cheap $90 Android tablets in the video player category. It's great for streaming video to the small 7" screen over WiFi but that's about it. Offline video takes up a ton of space and good luck finding an easy inexpensive way to stream to a TV.
- It's the hottest 7" tablet on the market—literally. The lower left corner tends to get pretty warm even with the brightness turned down below 30%.
- Annoying screen flicker with brightness below 30%; most noticeable with white background when reading or web browsing. This may be something that doesn't affect all tablets, but there are numerous reports. Until it gets fixed, it's a huge con for reading with lower brightness.
3. Kindle Fire HD Review
Amazon looks to replicate the success they had with the original Kindle Fire from last year by releasing two new HD models, a 7-inch version and an 8.9-inch version, both in various sizes and configurations. This review focuses on the 7" model, but can be applied to the larger model as well. Aside from the size difference they are basically the exact same. The 7" Kindle Fire HD comes with two options for memory, 16GB and 32GB. The 16GB model sells for $199 and the 32GB model sells for $249. Both include lock screen advertisements at that price, and it's worth noting that neither come with a wall charger, which costs $10 extra.
Pros
- The high quality screen. Text is very clear and sharp. Colors are bright and accurate.
- Very good value for the price in terms of hardware and specs. Plus the build quality is solid and the device is comfortable to hold in both portrait and landscape mode.
- Dual speakers are the loudest of any tablet yet, and sound fairly decent.
- Can sideload apps, movies, music, ebooks, and other content obtained from outside Amazon's ecosystem, including competing ePub ereading apps.
- New ebook features include text-to-speech, audiobook syncing with ebooks, and X-Ray.
Cons
- Locked into Amazon's user interface, which is a lot more limiting than traditional Android tablets—no widgets, no folders, no recent apps list, no customization, no wallpapers, etc. Plus the homescreen carousel is rather ugly and is minimally useful.
- The device is designed to be more of a content consuming device than a content creation device; all aspects of the Kindle Fire HD are designed to funnel users to Amazon to buy more stuff. Combine that with the complete lack of customizing options and it feels more like it's Amazon's tablet than your own.
- Hidden costs. The Kindle Fire HD doesn't come with a wall charger, which costs $10 more. By default all Kindle Fires now come with advertisements on the lock screen, called Special Offers. It costs another $15 to remove them
This is the best review of each products i hope you buy proper ebook reader to you.
