And battery life isn't that much of a big deal honestly
redpill me on e-reader autism
Sure, current e ink device can boast a week long autonomy
I want to read books but LCDs are too fatiguing
But if they slashed it to like even a few days, I'd be fine with that
If they put an actual decent CPU
Do you read books?
Not autistic stuff like mangas/manwha/comics
Like actual books
Yeah
In that case, buy an e-ink device
Don't waste 100+ whatever your currency is on it
Entry level kindle is usually fine if you can handle being part of Jeff's botnet
Some of them are hackable but iirc not all of them
idk what's the state of the kobo's market so I won't dwelve too much into it
I ideally want a Kindle as I have Amazon Prime
I bought a Lux because I'm a hipster, it's great because it supports a wide range of file formats and can be customized with non-existent apps because nobody cares about it
Yeah well go for it then
It's good shit
You can usually find good deals on second hand ones
Some entry level got no backlighting, meaning it's just like a book, you can't read it in the dark
(without external LÄMP)
Though some of them can be fitted with led lighting
(in cases)
Kindle being one of the most popular e-ink devices you can pretty much find anything to customize it
Sticker ~~for added faggotery~~, cases, protections and such
And the older ones at least (dunno about the last gens) are very easy to service in case you're very clumsy
>prices are getting too low
>what do we do
Tweak it
Making up shortages to beef up the prices
Typical
