I don't know about the device (I'm not on the market for this kind of device, since I already have the reMarkable, and the note taking functionality is pretty important to me for this size), but the video doesn't say or show anything interesting, IMHO.

Looks pretty impressive. I'm not in the market for 10" eReader, but quite a few people seem to be and this might be a good choice. 300 grams (10.5 ounces) seems pretty light for a 10.3" reader, but folks may not like the 227 ppi screen. (But that may be normal for 10.3" readers, I don't know.)
I liked the video. Seemed professional and upbeat. I wish PocketBook had a bigger "footprint" in the U.S. |

it seems almost everyone coming out with a new 9-10 inch screen is including a built-in light. i thought that the limit was at the 8 inch mark. what happened? did the lighting tech on these devices improve? how soon before we see lighting on a 13-inch device?

It's also not an ePub eReader. But 8.5 ounces is pretty amazing for a 10" tablet.

The lights are flexible, but I haven't seen anything that says that the distribution is still even when they are flexed. I hope I'm wrong, but with the little optics I know, it doesn't sound realistic. Thinking of those people who return their devices because the light is a bit brighter near the LEDs at the edges, I don't see them accepting a device where large areas go bright or dark depending on how you hold the device.
