I don't like the gradient, but you can't avoid that with this form factor. It is my main concern, though. I absolutely hate uneven lighting. |

However, each device varies. The photographs posted on Facebook show reasonable lighting. Also, one should not be too hasty in making assessments without having the device in front of one's eyes. Last edited by cellaris; 07-19-2022 at 11:39 AM. |

If this reader is any thing like other PocketBook readers, I think 16.7 hours will be on the low side -- unless you're listening to music while reading or using TTS.

Now they've taken off the 6" PocketBook coer and replaced it with a 6" Kobo Clara HD instead.

Just set up my Pocketbook Era and spent half an hour getting it connected to my WiFi :/
Just in case someone runs into the same issue: If you're running a RADIUS-WiFi (wifi login with username & password instead of just password), the Era will request TLS1.3 so the server either needs to support that or offer proper fallback to 1.2. FreeRADIUS apparently, by default, blocks TLS1.3 requests. |

What a nice device the Era is. Good build quality, very nice buttons, the device feels good in the hand. But ... Must there always be a but? *sigh*
![]() My Era has a noticable horizontal gradient. I still try to figure out if it bothers me enough to return the device. I know one can adapt to this, but honestly I don't want to. You can't really see it in the photo, but it's there. The next thing I dislike are the artifacts of the previous pages. They are already visible, if only slightly, after one page turn. The G-Sensor is a nightmare. One time it works, the next time it freezes in one position. I disabled it, because it was so annoying. On the good side, page turns with the buttons are very fast. Night mode is possible if you use KoReader. The contrast is also good, but you have to put two devices next to each other to see the benefits of Carta1200. Overall this could be my favourite device, if only the lighting was better. I will spend the rest of the evening with Mr. Steve Hackett on his Seconds Out Tour, I'm sure that will lift my mood. ![]() |

I can adapt or replace a reading programme, but not the lighting. I'm afraid the horizontal gradient in the lighting is going to be an insurmountable inconvenience for me. It is already on its way to Spain. I will check it in a few days.
