Electronic books are much more convenient than bulky dusty libraries and are successfully used by students and students, as well as by a wide range of literature lovers. Our tips will help not to drown in a sea of ​​variety of models and make the right choice, focusing on your needs.

Leaders among e-book producers

One of the first e-books market in the worldand the company PocketBook. The company constantly develops new technologies to improve the consumer properties of the screen and implements successful finds in production. A wide range of models is available on any price segment.

I want to pay special attention to ONYX Boox. It produces products of medium and premium price segments. Buyers of ONYX e-books can count on the latest technologies, thoughtful ergonomics, reliability and non-standard software solutions. ONYX Boox was the first to introduce the technology of electronic ink, the software shell of Android and the design of fanbukes.

Company Gmini on the market since 2008.Generates mostly budget models, which does not prevent her from selling e-books with quality builds and decent functionality.

Under the teXet brand, there is a wide range of readers with low prices and satisfactory quality. Perhaps, price is the only reason for the steady demand for their goods.

Huge popularity in the west have e-books from the giant Amazon printing. The Kindle series on the territory of Russia causes less enthusiasm because of the difficulties with updating the library of downloaded books.

  The best e-book for schoolchild

  

  An important characteristic of an e-book for children is the screen diagonal, often in direct proportion to the resolution, and thus the quality of the displayed picture. Large diagonal creates certain inconveniences - the book takes on considerable weight and dimensions, inconvenient for holding in your hand and wearing. Readers with a small diagonal are less convenient in terms of navigation and picture quality. For the school, 6-7 inches of diagonal models are optimal, necessarily with electronic ink technology for maximum protection of eye health.

  Analyzing reviews, we suggest you look at the model PocketBook Touch 2 623.

  • almost does not shine;
  • convenient size;
  • small weight;
  • supports all the most common formats;
  • allows you to make bookmarks and notes in the text;
  • is relatively inexpensive, because the health of the child's eyes is much more expensive.
