    • Excellent open format ebook reader with a few quirks
This Pocketbook ereader replaced my Kobo Aura One (which I truly loved). Pros - This has a better screen. Fast page turning The reading experience is very smooth and comfortable. The display is very sharp and easy to read. Lighting is very even. 64 GB is a crazy amount of storage. I never delete anything. I can operate it with one hand. I had to use both hands with the kobo. Buttons are very useful but I have a hard time remembering which is which when I flip it. The connection to calibre is more reliable than the kobo. I love usb-c on an ebook reader. Battery life is excellent; I get about a month. The cloud account works very well. I had to lie and say I bought it in Germany to get it to work. Cons- It is rather sensitive to orientation and often flips the display 90 degrees when it should not. The library browser is jerky and unpleasant to use. I used both readers for I while this winter, but found myself preferring the Pocketbook Era. ... show more

    • Delightful device.
Style: Era Stardust Silver 16GB
I love this thing. The only issue is that the accelerometer is very very unreliable, but if you disable it, there is no problem. Classy, nice amount of weight in the hand, crisp resolution. My only regret is that I didn't get it sooner.

    • I’ve crossed over
Edit: I’ve had this device for about a month now. I’ve deducted a star due to the sluggishness of G-Sensor, the feature that allows you to switch hands and change orientation. It’s enough to cause much irritation and is basically unusable. I hope they can fix this with a software update but I suspect it’s just low processing power. Also sometimes the device becomes completely unresponsive all together. I wonder if they just crammed too many features into the device than the hardware can handle. Original review: I have been using exclusively kindles since the first one and they are great. Never had a problem with any of them and great build quality. I have also been buying them for my whole family. My only gripe was I enjoy managing my library of books with custom cover art and older books that are not available in kindle format. I also like to buy books from other sources that have a deal. This is complicated with a kindle and time consuming. I did tons of research coming from my most recent kindle oasis 2. I knew I couldn’t go backwards from having buttons, it really elevates the reading experience for me. I wanted to be able to read any format from any store I felt like buying from. I did NOT want one store forced on my Home Screen or ads. These things really narrowed down my options. I settled on the Era since the Pocketbook Viva isn’t available yet on Amazon. I’ve had a few evenings with it so far to go through every setting and get most of my library on it. Kindle books will not transfer without a lot of work. At first it took a lot of adjustment, I wasn’t sure I’d made the right decision. I had to change how I hold the device slightly and how I tap the screen to get the proper response. It has far more customization across every aspect of the device. And the smart light is nice to have because my oasis does not have warm light. The battery is bigger and even with all the added features, battery life is astronomically better. As far as I know, this device has the largest battery capacity of all the black and white e-readers (non android). Some people have complained on screen issues and issues logging into accounts, I haven’t encountered any of these issues yet. Also you don’t HAVE to log into any accounts. Another amazing feature is the text to speech. The device uses the voice of your choice to read any book. Of course it’s not as good as quality narration of an audiobook but it’s much better than I expected. I will save a lot of money not buying audiobooks. Audiobooks are also supported though. If you want total control of your E-book library and are computer savvy enough to put in the work, I’d recommend the freedom having a Pocketbook provides. Given the price compared to similar devices, I’d say so far it’s a good value. If you like the simplicity of having the biggest ebook store and a book subscription service on your device and don’t need or want anything else then you’d probably be better off sticking to Kindle. I should add though Pocketbook DOES have a store on the device and supposedly if you contact them with your device info they can change the region information allowing you to use it. I will be doing that myself soon. ... show more

    • I LOVE my PocketBook Era!
Style: Era Stardust Silver 16GB
I’m a new convert from the world of Kindles. I’ve been buying and using Kindle e-readers for almost 15 years and I’ve gotten slowly more and more disenchanted with the experience. When they discontinued the Oasis, I finally had to search elsewhere. I wanted something with good, unobtrusive, tactile physical buttons, a front light with adjustable warmth, and USB-C. Ideally, I also wanted something that would handle PDFs and epubs with more ease than my Kindles have in the past. This was the winner and I couldn’t be more satisfied! Battery life is great, it’s snappy and responsive, the size and weight are perfect, the construction feels premium, and it does everything I want it to. Setup was a breeze, and I was absolutely FLOORED that I didn’t have to make an account or anything! When was the last time you were able to use a new electronic device without having to set up some kind of stupid account?! I truly couldn’t be happier with my purchase and I’ve already recommended PocketBook to all of my Kindle-using friends who are looking to break free of Amazon’s chains as well. ... show more

    • Good hardware with terrible software
Style: Era Stardust Silver 16GB
I bought this to replace my kindle, because I wanted a drm free reader that still had my favorite kindle feature, syncing between the app on my phone and the reader for all those times I have a little time to get some reading in and don’t have the reader with me. Pocketreader claims to have that feature, but it doesn’t actually work. Getting it to sync is an exercise in frustration. The software in general seems very buggy and slow. Can’t recommend it at this time. ... show more

If you want a quality E-reader that is not in the Amazon ecosystem then this is the one for you. Build quality, readability, are top notch. Also very customizable. It's also really nice that you can send eBooks wirelessly by sending it via email to your pocketbook.
