Help asap

Littletreasure21 · 06-06-2012, 06:13 AM

Hi it's my birthday soon and my other half wanted to order my ereader soon so it gets here in time

I'm only really after a ereader I don't mind the added extras eg apps etc but I would like my ereader to be colour and touch and have wifi I'm in the uk and have got my eye on the kobo vox I've heard mixed reviews and I'm torn between that and the arnova 7e g2 dual touch ereader but video footage off kobo vox looks so much better.

Would you advise the kobo vox just for reading as its all I want it for???
I'll be doing most off my reading at home and in dark or with very little light

Help help me please I'm so torn and running out off time

I got mine last October and have no regrets. If what you want to do is read and under the conditions you describe, it will do the job quite nicely for you. The screen on the Vox is excellent, with good viewing angles (+ /- 89) which means it is still quite clear and easy to read when tilted. It also allows for reading with minimal glare, except in direct sunlight, which is something a regular tablet doesn't do well. My Samsung is an excellent tablet, but no way could I easily read on it with overhead lights or outside.
I say, go for it!

I think you'll be more than happy with the Kobo Vox ereader. But not as much with the Kobo Vox tablet

Thank you ever so much :-) I think I'll get the kObo vox as I only want it for reading :-)

It's great for books and mags and movies. Not very stable, mind you, so if the person using it is not very tech savvy, you may want to stick with a Galaxy tablet or an eink ereader...

pokee--that is so not true at this point. If you actually downloaded recent updates you might change your mind.
