Boox Poke or Tolino Shine 3

Bayyak · 02-02-2019, 08:14 PM

My main use case is to read books and sync highlights and reading progress to iOS. Assuming I can get both at the same price, which one of the two devices would you recommend?

The Boox has beefier specs but may require fiddling around. I’ve also read that the touch screen does is not very accurate.

I don't know much about the Tolino Shine 3 but I would get the Poke Pro over the regular Poke because its using Android 6.0. The regular Poke has Android 4.4 which will soon be discontinued by Google. The Pro is only $20 more and IMO worth it to future proof your device.

I have poke pro. I like it but it has issues. See tbe thread in onyx section--poke pro first impressions. I posted tbere. I agree get the pro not none pro. The. OS takes memory so with only 8 gb ram you won't be left with much. Honestly, if all you want do is read I think there are better choices. The poke pro is a tablet. It sucks battery, it does everything. I like it. It plays youtube videos. But...its not the best choice for a pure ereader.
