I used to be a big page-turn-buttons chauvinist. But coming to the Poke 2 via the Monte Cristo 3 (which had page-turn-sensors, rather than buttons) may have helped. Also helpful was using AlreaderX, which allowed me to set the reader to page-turn by tapping the sides of the screen (which is very similar to the MC3's sensor-tapping).

Build quality is also questionable, it is all plastic, unlike the all metal build of the PRS 350. When I tried to take the Poke 3 off from the official boox poke 3 case where it is adhere using two adhesive strips, the Poke 3 case is so strong that it managed to snap the back casing off the Poke 3 (yes the poke 3 is just two chear plastic case snapped together with no glue or screws). Either the strip is too sticky or the casing of the POke 3 is too weak, both case and the poke 3 is of bad design.

The only build-quality issue I have with my Poke 2 is that the light grey plastic back is slowly developing a slight greenish tinge around the edges due to handling.
I don't use the provided case -- I find the Poke 2 to be small and light enough to fit in a jacket pocket where it doesn't need one.
