Kobo Clara BW review: It’s great, but I don’t know why it exists

The Kobo Clara BW is an excellent black and white e-reader, and usually, it would be an easy recommendation. However, I can't recommend you buy it.

Amazon Kindle Scribe review: The Kindle just got weird, and I love it

The Kindle Scribe is the biggest and most expensive Kindle on the market, and the first one that you can write on. It also happens to be something I adore.
Amazon Kindle (2022) reading view

Amazon Kindle (2022) review: simple, delightful reading

The Kindle (2022) is the most basic e-reader that Amazon offers, but for some, that's simply enough.
amazon kindle paperwhite 2015 review 0037

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite 2015 review

Amazon’s 2015 Paperwhite has double the pixels of its predecessor and almost no lag. It’s one of the best ebook readers you’ll find, so long as you’re wedded to Amazon’s library.
Amazon Kindle Kids Edition

Amazon Kindle Kids Edition review: Great for little bookworms

Built specially for children, the Amazon Kindle Kids Edition is a basic e-book reader with some special extras. At an affordable $110, it's the perfect device to kindle your child's love of reading. Its parental controls could use some work but it offers kids a good bit of fun and incentive to learn.

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (2021) review: The best e-reader for avid bookworms

The new Kindle Paperwhite (2021) finally brings USB-C to the table, plus color temperature adjustment, and a bigger screen with thinner bezels.
Kindle Oasis (2019) Review

Kindle Oasis (2019) review

It’s 2019, and Amazon’s latest Kindle Oasis still comes with a Micro USB charging port over USB-C. But that’s just about our only complaint with the newest top-of-the-line ebook reader, which comes with a new color-adjustable front light. It helps makes it Amazon’s best yet.
Kindle Paperwhite review

Kindle Paperwhite (2018) review

The Kindle Paperwhite (2018) has long been Amazon's most beloved ebook reader. After three years of waiting, the Paperwhite finally got a refresh for 2018. And while it may look the same as its predecessor, new features like Bluetooth connectivity and an IPX8 rating makes it a worthwhile upgrade for serious readers.
kobo libra h20 review kobolibrah20

Kobo Libra H20 review: Premium without the price

At a significantly lower price than the top-tier ebook readers, the Kobo Libra H20 goes toe-to-toe in the features department, making it a tempting proposition. Kobo had to compromise on the design and build quality, but this is still a compelling device with a color-adjustable light and water resistance.

Sony PRS-700 Review

A few minor downsides notwithstanding, it's a device that comes highly recommend for sheer reading pleasure, albeit not pure technical versatility.

Amazon Kindle 2 Review

Amazon's book selection and always-on connectivity push the Kindle ahead of Sony's sexier offering.
barnes noble nook review

Barnes & Noble Nook Review

In our review of the Barnes & Noble Nook we learn that the Nook has a few tricks up its sleeve that set it apart from the Amazon Kindle. But can a few tricks compensate for its late entry into the e-reader market?
spring design alex review

Spring Design Alex Review

We review the Alex e-book reader by Spring Design which features syncing dual screens and Google's Android operating system.
amazon-kindle-fire-front-screen

Amazon Kindle Fire Review

Review: The Amazon Kindle Fire strips out frivolous tablet features in favor of a low price, ease of use and outstanding content.
kindle paperwhite review

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Review

Amazon pushes the e-reader to a new level with a gorgeous new front-lit screen and updated touch interface.
Sony Reader PRST 2 ereader review

Sony Reader PRS-T2 Review

The Sony Reader’s lack of a light-up screen leaves it behind many competitors, but its light weight and sharp design still leave an impression.
Kobo Mini review

Kobo Mini Review

Kobo downsizes the eBook experience with the Mini while also lowering the price. Size isn't everything, but is 5-inches too small?

Kobo Aura HD Review

With the Aura HD, Kobo has released the first HD E Ink e-reader. But is fancy screen enough to make up for its premium $170 price?
NOOK Glow front sleep

Barnes & Noble Nook GlowLight review

The new Nook GlowLight boasts a better display and a brighter, more even built-in light. Barnes & Noble should have stopped there with the changes, but it didn't.
Kindle Paper White front store

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (2013) review

The new Amazon Kindle Paperwhite improves upon last year's model but doesn't break what worked. Sporting a high-quality display, even light, comfortable design, and speedy performance, it's a good value at $120.
Amazon Kindle Voyage

Amazon Kindle Voyage review

We review Amazon’s latest ebook reader, the Kindle Voyage. Here’s why it may just be the best book reader available today.
Amazon Kindle Oasis

Kindle Oasis review (2016)

Amazon’s Kindle Oasis is the slimmest, lightest, and most radical ebook reader we’ve ever used. Is it worth the $290 price tag? Read our review to find out.
Kobo Aura One

Kobo Aura One review

Kobo’s Aura One is the best ebook reader you can buy. It’s waterproof and boasts a brand-new big screen.
