Kobo Clara HD vs Pocketbook InkPad Color

Verdict

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 Pocketbook InkPad Color receives mixed reviews, with some praising its color display and affordable price point, while others criticize its lower resolution and limited color capabilities. Many recommend the device for reading plain text and side-loading books, but caution against using it for A4-sized PDFs or comics with tiny colored text. The device is also praised for its microSD card slot, excellent battery life, and cloud/Dropbox support. Some users recommend using the koreader app for reading PDF books, while others suggest waiting for future color e-ink displays with higher resolution and color capabilities. Overall, the Pocketbook InkPad Color is considered a recommendable color e-ink tablet for those on a budget.
