fast >>> eReader?

oplo · 08-19-2020, 07:26 PM

hello,

I am looking for a fast eReader.
Had a Tolino Shine 3 but that was so slow!
I am not talking about the display refresh-rate but about the CPU power:
Loading and browsing PDF files was so slow! Full-text search took years.

The Tolino has 1 GHz CPU and 512 MB RAM

Only some poketbook models have 2 GHz !? But I read online, that the firmware is really slow!?? Would it make sense to buy a Poketbook and use an alternate firmware, such as KOReader?

Any fast experience here?

Thx

I think that some of the Onyx devices have more powerful processors, but I don't know for sure.

Boox XXXXX2 (4, 7.8 and 10.3 inch) devices have at least 2 GB RAM and 8 core CPU / 2 GHz.
Likebook (7.8, 10.3 inch) devices have at least 2 GB RAM and 8 core CPU / 1.5 GHz.
I prefer Likebook devices with the same size.
No pocketbook has 2 GHz, but some have 2 core CPU / 1 GHz
