5.0 out of 5 stars Bright, big screen, web browser for direct downloads.
I am very happy with this Kobo reader. I've owned kindles over the years, but the screens were too small and it was annoying to get books from outside the Bolo ecosystem installed.The Kobo has its own ecosystem/web store, which seems fine. I am more interested in reading public domain and other non-copy protected books. For that, I find that the built in web browser is great; you just point it at the Epub site you are using, and download directly.For academic papers (JSTOR), this would be an OUTSTANDING reader, since it handles PDFs very nicely. The 10 inch screen is a must for PDFs.The pen and note taking abilities are a great bonus as well. I find that the pen keeps up amazingly well with rapid handwriting; no irritating lag at all. Very well executed firmware and UI, in my opinion.
5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent reading device.
I purchased this Elipsa 2e primarily for reading, not note taking, and find it an excellent device for that purpose. I like the 10.3โ screen size which allows for larger text sizes. And there is plenty of room for using Gestures and QuickMenus while using KOReader. And it arrived very quickly which I appreciated.
4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome ereader, terrible App
This is my first e-reader, so I wasnโt sure what to expect. When I got the box, I was impressed by its slim design and great packaging. When I read the dimensions on the site, I questioned that this may be a bit large for what I want, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that the size is perfect. Itโs large enough that I can either 1) fit an awful lot of text on the page or 2) make the letters really big. The text is crisp and easy to read, even when the lighting isnโt perfect. The backlight is easily adjustable so that I can keep it dark when the lights are out. The stylus has a good feel to it, but I had to disable the setting where a simple touch would turn the page in order to use the stylus effectively. It would change the page before the stylus could begin writing. Thatโs a simple fix, and I was glad to do it. The screen, as a side note, has a lovely paper like feeling to it. It feels like a high quality paper that you would get in a hard back. It is a bit heavy for what it is. Think of it as the same as hardback book. This doesnโt detract from the experience. The menus are easy to navigate and it has plenty of features if you want more than just a basic e-reader. The note taking is smooth and easy, and itโs lovely that it can sync with several different online services for backup and transfer.The reading app itself is easy to use and syncs flawlessly with my phone, so I can read on the go whenever I want to. It never loses my place. Iโve been reading with it for over a week now and havenโt had to recharge it, and it charged fast the first time.Those are the pros. Thereโs really only the one con, but itโs a biggy. The Kobo appโs search feature is terrible. A friend of mine is an author with works on Kobo. His Author name is โEric Dakotaโ, and when I went to search for him, I got one of his books on the first page, the rest was each and every book with Dakota or Eric anywhere in the description, title, or author name. It taps out at 39 pages, and it only had one of his books listed. However, all of his books are on Kobo. On the e-reader, there is no way to force it to limit its searches to Author, Series, or Title. On the phone app, it has them, but it doesnโt work very well. I was at least able to find all of Ericโs books that way with a little poking around. While I donโt regret my purchase, itโs nuts that they want me to buy all of my books from them, then make them hard to find. In addition, their prices are much higher than they ought to be. Be prepared to shell out a lot of money for the books. I do want to point out that more of the money gets to the author, which is why Iโll swallow the pill and pay it, but thatโs something that you need to be aware of when you buy the reader. This is a great way of supporting the author, but if budget is an issue, youโll need to buy your books on a different site and transfer them over.This all breaks down to this: the ereader is awesome. It does what you want it to do. My complaints all center on the software and should be fixable with an update. Iโll update this when they do.
5.0 out of 5 stars Huge Upgrade
I absolutely love this thing. Sure during more complex operations in the advanced notebook, it can take a second. Getting used to the stylus takes time, but the build quality, the feeling of the materials, the lightness, I absolutely love using this thing.I have been part of the Kobo ecosystem for a few years, so all of my books besides a couple are on Kobo. Because of this, setup took about 3 minutes.It's not necessarily a great budget e-reader, it's fairly expensive, but in comparison to other e-reader/note taking e-ink devices, it's a good deal to me. My unit did come with a small defect in the surface of the screen, but I anticipate using this thing and getting it fairly banged up for a long time, so whatever.I absolutely love sitting down and just reading on this device. I have made notebooks and folders etc for my business classes to help me have quick and easy to review notes on accounting specifics, then I can throw my headphones on and sit and read Andy Weir books and get lost in the stories.Pure love for this thing.
Een van de beste e-readers
Erg blij met de aankoop. Fijn dat de Kobo Plus boeken te lezen zijn. En fijn dat ik vanuit Google Drive (en Dropbox) epubs kan lezen.
