My e-readers and the cases, some are bought, some are made by myself. I like adding personality to my e-readers. I wish there is one ultimate e-reader that can do everything, until I find it, I will keep all this e-readers. Xteink X3 and X4, Kindle Scribe, Kindle Keyboard, Super Note A5x, Onyx Boox Poke, Moaan Inkpalm, e-reader froom TaoBao.
I Bought my X4 from Taobao and I was very happy about it, I still use the Chinese firmware but before the firmware update, the battery drained very fast and I hate that I had to charge the X4 in the middle of reading any book. (The x4 with the latest firmware is excellent). So I was considering getting another X4, but then they announced X3 pre order. I did pre-order it back on March but my country is not on the shipment destination, I had to use a proxy and I chose the wrong one. The package was delayed for month so I only received it today.
Although I really like how compact and small the X4 is, I also need bigger screen for reading academic journal so while waiting for the X3 to arrive, I got the Kindle Scribe. So here are my newest e-readers which are the smallest and the biggest e-readers that I ever have :D
First impression.. because I am a fan of the Chinese firmware (because of the faster updates), it feels weird to use the international firmware. I miss the Chinese text!!! I can't even read Chinese. I knew the X3 use Pogo pins but I kinda forgot about it (I waited too long) and I already hate it. I mean, I got the free magnetic cover from Xteink but then when I have to charge the X3, I have to open the back cover? It's not hard to open the cover but it feels like a badly designed cover. well maybe it is necessary to cover the charging port but still it feels impractical.
when not charging, I do like the cover, somehow it reminds me of praying books, I am not even religious. I haven't use it to read anything because it froze on the first book :(. It works now but we'll see.
Hello! I got the 2024 Kindle Scribe and I really like to annotate what I read. I am a teacher so I thought of using the scribe to mark my student's project, but then I can't send the pdf back. There is no share button, the share button only when I am using blank notebook. Luckily I only mark 8 pages, but next time I will need to check hundred of pages. Is there a way to send the marked pdf?
