The one I mentioned my roommate having was like that. Tinted screen and you slide in doted or lined paper behind it

Related note, are there Chinese ebook readers, and if so, worth considering?

not cheap ones

yeah they're not cheap

onyx being main contender there ?

How not cheap?

"get used kindle" not cheap

Amazon subsidizes the cost.

Even a new kindle is super to Chinese eink

Amazon subsidizes becusee for every me who pirates everything. There's three people buying books

previously linked 300us Boox Nova Pro cheap

non-pro nova being 250 or so in aliex

and poke pro 200

all from boox

Thefuck do they do that justify an ebook readers being that much?

e-ink panels are patented to e-ink bullshit corporation

We had amazing ones for $200 a couple years back

whats main reason why there is no cheap panels

cause they literaly jew it out

Blame the eink company

^

What the fuck.

welcome to patent bullshit of e-inks

There's also not much demand for innovation or change in the commerical space.

In the pro space sure. Eink signs would be fucking sick.

also other manufacturer is Kobo

their now old "Kobo Glow" is around 50-60

Had a Kobo WiFi years ago, was nice.

Glorious Kobo. Releasing a waterproof kindle so Amazon has to as well

their aura model is around 70 iirc (year ago last time i checked

What are the best couple of ebook readers around now?

Kindle Paperwhite on sale is 100$ with waterproof and backlight

There was a recently made 10 inch eink with no backlight. Got highly reviewed but was expensive

If it gets me reading again it'll be worth whatever, I used to love reading all the time, now I only read online.

Last gen Paperwhite can be had for cheap used.

Any bullshit with Kindle like requiring an account or ads or anything?

kindle whatever, kobo aura and said Boox Nova

No. Use Calibre. Load eberybook

Bought chink shit mousepad
