Many people have e-readers these days. If you are searching for one, you may be aware that there are several models on the market. Most of them are high quality, so you really can’t go wrong with whichever one you choose. We showcase three below.
Nook Color: Barnes & Noble’s Nook Color e-reader is both affordable and well designed. Today, you can acquire the Nook Color for about $150. That’s not a bad bargain. And maybe because of its connection to the country’s largest bookseller, the Nook Color provides a superior reading experience. The Nook Color is adept at both prose and graphic display. This makes reading children’s books and graphic novels a pleasure. There are also several user functions that are a joy to use. For instance, if you don’t know the meaning of a word in that Mark Twain novel you’re reading, just press it. A definition will appear.
The Nook Color also includes several built-in applications, including Pandora, an e-mail reader, a web browser, and an addicting crossword puzzle game. You can increase the power of your Nook Color by downloading apps from the app store. Here you’ll find Netflix, the Smithsonian Channel, and several other top apps. So what is the only drawback of the Nook color? Its app store, while boasting plenty of choices, it sometimes lacks some of the more cutting-edge apps out there. Here’s hoping that the Nook Color will introduce apps at a quicker pace.
Kindle Fire: The Kindle Fire is very similar to the Nook Color and is one of the most popular e-readers available. The reading experience on the Kindle Fire is amazingly clear and just like the Nook Color it comes with its own email client and web browser. The Kindle is affordable, too, with the current cost being under $200.
What are the only drawbacks with the Kindle Fire? Some of its controls are far from intuitive. For instance, there’s not a volume control anywhere on the device. To control the volume on the Kindle Fire, you need to tap the screen. Otherwise, though, the Kindle Fire is yet another good e-reader buy.
Kobo e-Reader: While the Kobo e-Reader isn’t as well-known as the Nook Color or the Kindle Fire, it is not to be disregarded. If reading is your goal, this may be the one you are looking for as it has an incredibly clear display. In addition, you can change the font style and size to personalize it to your liking. Another feature people love is the soft back; they say it feels more like a real book.
You can download e-books from the Kobo store in many different formats. This is perfect for graphics-heavy books. Also, the battery life of the Kobo blows other e-readers out of the water. When the Wi-Fi feature is turned off, the battery can last as long as a month.
