Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

If you don't mind a 1 second page turn and the flash (inverse/redraw), this is still a great device for large text. Keep the button key board at the bottom - love the tactile *.

For reading books, it beats my ipad pro on eye/reading comfort and travel connectivity. It is much more rugged and useful than other readers and even small tablets. E-ink technology is a lifesaver.

Highlights

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Quality

The size, lack of glare, and reliability has made it one of the best purchases i have ever made for myself.

The ability to adjust font sizes and orientation adds to the versatility of the device.

It’s not a perfect machine, doesn’t have a frontlight, it’s slower and yes it’s older!

A single charge lasts for weeks, even with regular use.

Price

Which thanks to low print numbers and publisher green results in books over $300+ i will never pick up.

Willing to pay a lot for a 2nd dx for my wife.

Competitiveness

Ps, the demand for a dx seems likely eventually, that another company will build something akin to dx, and get around copyright laws.

Some other companies like sony still make e-ink based readers with big screen and good performance.
