Pocketbook 360 or pocket pro
I just read text file.
The most important thing is long battery life and portable. Which one is better choice? Thanks. |

I may be biased as I have the PB360 but I think if you're looking for an e-ink device which is highly portable and that has an excellent battery life - the PocketBook is your no 1 choice!
Very light, slim and with a screen protected while not in use with a hard cover. The battery (after the initial couple of charges) is the best of all my e-ink devices and will now last between 2.5-3 weeks on a single charge. |

I'd go for the Pocketbook because of the hard shell. Battery life, I've been going for a few months on my Mini but then, I don't use it very much at this time of year (not enough light, I prefer a backlit in winter...)
(oh, I'd not buy a Pocketbook myself, due to the hard shell, I want a soft cover personally... but I presume with portability you want to take it with you everywhere and want the lessen the chance of a cracked screen) |

Pocketbook 360
I would go with a Pocketbook 360. I love mine. I have a Cool-er that has a larger screen but I don't notice the slightly smaller screen causing me any problems.

Both the PP and 360 have 5" screens. But personally I wouldn't like the hard cover. I believe you can click it behind the device, right? But it's still cold and stiff and not soft and warm like my Mini cover!
(and you don't own the Cool-er, your cat does! and it's my cat!) |
