Forgot to mention, another thing about the Chinese dictionaries on the Max, and presumably on other Onyx devices as well, is that it will automatically select between up to 5 of them when clicking on an entry. This has proven really useful.
Sometimes a character or a combination of characters is not in one dictionary, but might be in another. When there is no entry in the Chines-English dictionary, there will often be one in the Chinese-Chinese dictionary which will usually help me to get an understanding of the character, term or saying.
On a Kobo device, you would have to actively choose another dictionary for it to search in if it were not in your preselected dictionary. That could be a bit of a pain... if one had more than one dictionary one wanted to check in. However, only having the one Chinese-English dictionary on my device, that's a bit of a moot point.
