The Kobo Clara HD is a great starter device for those interested in e-readers. It has an 8GB internal memory that can be upgraded with a larger microSD card, and it can hold up to 6k books. The 6" screen size makes it easy to transport in a pocket or small bag. It also has the Overdrive feature which allows users to borrow books from their local public library. However, some users have noted that there is not enough control over line spacing and that it takes two presses to do everything.

Verdict

The Onyx Boox Note 3 is a great e-reader for those who need to read and annotate books from a variety of stores. It has an Android operating system, which allows users to access their databases and notes quickly and easily. The device also comes with a plastic screen protector that can be difficult to apply without getting bubbles or dust underneath. Additionally, the magnet used to connect the device is not very strong, so it may not be reliable. However, the Note 3 offers good battery life and is perfect for those who need a pocket-sized device.

Battery Life

My Nook is better

Either it wouldn't recognize the gesture at all and I'd end up waiting a sec to see if it was just slow, or if it didn't recognize the gesture. Or the other thing it would do is go the wrong direction. Yes I'd swipe the direction meaning go to the next page, and it would instead go to the previous page.

The next issue is battery life

I now carry only this, not a couple of paperbacks, a notebook and a pen. The battery life is phenomenal! I read 3-4 hours a day 5 days a week with frequent interruptions (work, what can you do?) so it often powers off and the battery is still 50%-60% at the end of the week! The ability to change the screen lighting makes it easy on the eyes, the bluetooth connection works well with ear buds but I've only been able to bluetooth tether it to my phone once. The Wi-Fi tether works like a champ every time. My only "complaints" are: 1) setting up the google play store (for the nook and Kindle apps) is frustrating if you don't, as I did not, read the instructions (the reboot is, in fact, necessary!) 2) Every time I would tether the device the location would automatically turn on (this has been alleviated with the latest update but contrary to the update notes, location is NOT turned off by default

E.reader for a philosophy student ?

3' size, my suggestion will be to go for Boox Note 3. Even though Note air is also a great option in that size, I won't recommend it for your use case because you said you will use it on the go a lot.
