Buy 6"+ Epub Reader with Page Turn Keys

Boston · 12-01-2018, 03:19 PM

My mom lost her Sony reader and I need to find a replacement. I was going to get her a Forma for Christmas but after reading the reviews, decided to pass.

- Must have physical page touch keys as the time I upgraded her to a touch screen she complained that it turned too many pages at a time.
- Must be at least 6" as she uses huge fonts
- Must be easy to use and problem free. She is in her 80's and not tech savvy (still hasn't learned how to get messages off her cell phone lol).
- Decent battery life
- Must work with Calibre (I side load books for her when I visit)
- Prefer one that comes with a cover

If I don't find something soon, I might try to get her to use a touch screen reader again...but thought I would ask here first.

Thanks for looking!

I recommend this https://www.amazon.com/Pocketbook-To...dp/B00W5Z6X68/

Cases are a separate purchase.
