E-reader size comparison (with Video Link)

Hi Everyone!

If you want to get a better idea of just how big the spectrum of e-reader screens is, check out my video below comparing various e-readers from 6 inch all the way up to 13.3 inches.

Hopefully this gives you a better idea of the range that exists!

Enjoy!

Promise me there's none of that ghastly music you had in your "Riddle" video before I look. I hate videos with music - it just distracts from the subject matter.

Yes, this video does have some ghastly music playing.

The video is seriously wrong. It is not showing the full range of Reader sizes. It leaves out the H2O at 6.8". It goes from 6" to 8" leaving out the H2O. Sorry, but full range is wrong. Very much so.

Newsflash, if you don't like the music, you can just hit the mute button!

If easy going jazz is what you'd define as "ghastly" then sure, I guess...

Yeah, I guess you have to change the wording in one place from "the full range" to "a range", otherwise your video is seriously wrong and worthless. LMAO

You are missing the Slick, the Alturek and several others.
The Alturek has a 5 inch screen.
Sorry but you have nowhere near the full range of ereaders.

I disagree. Only model and sizes available for sale new (that are still in production) should be included.

This is the type of music I'd expect to hear in the lounge at a Holiday Inn.

Do you seriously expect him to go out and buy the missing models and redo the video? I think you're missing the point of the exercise.

Thank You!!!

And, yes, they are most certainly missing the point of the exercise entirely!
