This is the ONLY e-reader on the market that ticks all the boxes I care about and ditches stuff I don't: 1. BW, not color = more battery life. If you don't read Manga or anything that benefits from color, just regular books, this is perfect. 2. It runs on Linux = more battery life, less bloat. 3. It's as open source as you can get with e-readers; not fussy about book formats/DRM etc. 4. You can transfer books from your PC via a USB-C cable - no messing around with wireless transfers via email, Dropbox etc (although Dropbox functionality is there if you want it), just drag and drop like you would with an external hard drive. 5. It has a micro SD slot. This bears repeating - IT HAS A MICRO SD SLOT. This is an INCREDIBLY RARE feature now - most companies are forgoing expandable memory with silly features like waterproofing instead. It has 8GB internal storage space which may sound a bit chintzy but come on; that's around 7000 EPUB books! But if that's not enough for you then you can fit more books than you could ever wish for on a Micro SD card and read them from there. 6. You can set up the device without creating any kind of account. Does any other company let you do this these days? 7. It's a great size - most e-readers are 6" or 7" or so, which is great for portability and you can fit in your pocket, but for reading in the house the text area on this device is just about exactly the same size as a large paperback which I think is perfect, and if you don't care about note taking with styluses etc that most devices around 10" concentrate on this is the one to get. 8. It has physical page turn buttons, and they're conveniently placed to the side of the screen, not beneath it, like the Inkpad 4. Side buttons are great for reading on a stand, whereas ones at the foot of the device are a bit awkward 9. It has a fairly large 2200mAh battery and it lasts a LONG time - many weeks between recharges, mostly because the device is BW, and running on Linux. This is the second Inkpad Lite I've bought but there's nothing wrong with the first. The reason I bought this is because it seems like the last of a dying breed, and as it first appeared on the market 4 years ago I'm assuming it will be discontinued at some point soon and there's nothing else on the market that has this feature set. As a side note, people complain about the 150PPI resolution, but the quality of the text on all the books I've read looks great to me - it's as good as or better than text on the page of a real book so I don't think I care what the number is. TLDR: This is a great device for someone with a PC and a large library of books downloaded from various places who wants a bigger screen and is sick of the restrictions that come with most ebook readers today.

My Likebook Mars Android e-reader stopped charging after 4+ years of regular use and this Pocketbook Inkpad Lite was bought as a replacement. Pros: -9.7" screen. The resolution on this is lower than most other modern e-readers at just 150 ppi which concerned me when ordering but it's fine for reading books. I first bought an e-reader due to my eyesight getting to the point where I couldn't read small paperback text without reading glasses and I can read everything fine on this screen and can't tell a difference between the quality when reading epub books on this screen vs the quality of the 300 ppi screen on my old Likebook. -It boots quickly. It did seem to hang a bit on first boot, but that was due to it organizing all of the ebooks on my memory card- mostly in epub format - on first boot. -Has a microSD card slot, which made it easy to move all my books from my old e-reader to this one. -OS easy to figure out and change settings to my preferences. Can set font and font size for use with all of your books vs my Lifebook where you had to set it on a book by book basis. Didn't like some of the default settings - especially where you touched the screen to turn back a page - and was easily able to change to my liking. -USB-c charging. Nice being able to charge with same cable/charger as most of my other newer devices. -Backlight works well to see all text in the dark and can be adjusted to your personal preferences. -Cover - bought seperately - can close cover to put it to sleep. Neutral: -Physical buttons that can be used to turn the pages. Nice feature I guess, but still find it easier to just touch the screen. Do like where the power on button is compared to my old Likebook where that button was on the bottom and I would frequently turn it off by mistake - not an issue with this Pocketbook. -Not as customizable as Andriod e-reader. But 99% of my use on my Android e-reader was reading books in epub format and this works great for that. -Changing the defaults seems to take a few minutes to register. Thought at first my changes weren't being registered but they were. Summary: This is the 5th ereader that I've owned and so far it's far and away my favorite. It boots quickly, I love the size, and its easy to navigate. It may not have some of the features of some others, but it works great for reading books in epub format, which is what makes up the majority of my e-library.

There are so many things I like about this. I am using it as an ereader and not much more. So there's much I cannot comment on. As an ereader, I am quite happy. I like the size and ease of it. I love that I can make the wording better by just using two fingers and scrolling out or in (to make it smaller). The light isn't hard on the eyes and lights the wording really well. That it has a micro SD made me choose this particular Inkpad. Battery is okay. I read for around 12 hours and then recharge. The cons; Like every other ereader and touch screen I have, they are glitchy. But I'd say this is a tiny bit more glitchy than most. If I use the buttons to go to the next page, that's fine and never glitches. However, in the dark they are hard to see and use and have no feel to them to know what is the right button to hit. However, if you can't see you can use your finger on the screen to to swipe to turn the other page. Now, this is where glitches come into play. Sometimes it goes a few pages instead of one. Sometimes it acts as if I used two fingers and is now trying to resize the page. This can truly be annoying when I am waiting for it to resize when I am at an important part of the book. Since are no buttons on both side, I have to struggle to find the button to change the page with my right hand only. Would be much nicer if on both sides. Would I buy this again? Of course. Out of all my options, this was the one I kept coming back too and I have been happily reading since.
