Where to find images of ereaders

sneakyspider · 01-04-2013, 10:56 PM

I like to look at photos other people have taken of their ereaders before I think about buying one. It's easier to get an idea of what they really look like that way, instead of relying on official images which tend to be rather "optimistic." Two places that I usually go to for that are tumblr tags and Amazon's customer image feature. Unfortunately, those two options don't always turn up good results. I was wondering if there are any other places that have several pictures of ereaders?

A Google image search?

Not images, but there are quite a few videos on Youtube of readers in use.

YouTube might be a good place to look. I've tried Google Image Search and it's been a bit tedious sorting through all of the dross to try to find any good images. Most of them are the "official" photos.

Have a look at the eReader museum here There are images of most readers and a technical description of each.

Well, not 'most' readers, but 'only' 127. It's a nice site, but far from complete.

Thanks for all of the help. These look like they could be really useful.

I second, or third, YouTube. It's nice seeing actual hands on the readers.

Hey sneakyspider
Whenever I have to check an apps' interface and functionality I usually search for app review video over YouTube, it works out for me judging it. I have picked Moon+Reader with this process and I am pretty satisfied with my selection.

When I bought the wire holders that I use for my Kindle I took several pics of one of the holders in use (with the kindle resting on it).
