What matters when choosing
- The bookshop you use
- A Kindle reads books bought from Amazon first; Kobo and PocketBook read the ePubs sold by most online bookshops. That choice matters more than the screen.
- Library lending
- Libraries lend protected ePubs. Not every e-reader accepts them: check compatibility before buying if you borrow often.
- How it feels in the hand
- Physical buttons, a weight under 200 grams or a screen that rotates make the difference when you read for an hour, in bed or on the train.
