The best device for reading on the go and before bed
20 December 2024 
Convenient, compact e-book. Received it as a gift, and I'm really happy with it. The most convenient use is reading in bed before sleep, as it has a backlight function, and also taking it with me to read in transit - it's light and takes up almost no space. There are also various mini-games to pass the time - sudoku, chess, solitaire. You can set any picture downloaded from the internet as a screensaver, and if you don't want to bother, there's plenty to choose from among the available ones. There's also a built-in dictionary that makes reading foreign literature easier.
Compactness, holds charge for a very long time, has backlighting
Sometimes pages take a long time to load.

Video reviews

The PocketBook portfolio contains a lot of interesting book reader offers. Take, for example, the Era model - a high-quality e-reader in a waterproof design.

Reading and listening to audiobooks

The case of the device has protection against penetration of moisture according to the IPX8 standard. So the reader can be safely used while taking a bath or on a beach holiday. Moreover, not only for reading books, but also for listening to them - PocketBook Era was equipped with a mono speaker and a Bluetooth wireless module, which serves to connect headphones or broadcast sound to a portable speaker.

Quality paper-like screen

The front panel of the e-book is occupied by a touch screen E Ink Carta 1200 with a diagonal size of 7 inches and a resolution of 1680x1264 pixels. Text fonts are perfectly drawn on the display, and its SMARTlight backlight is adjustable in a wide range of color temperatures. The screen lacks perhaps more contrast - it is in this parameter that the reader is slightly inferior to the "classmates".

Many formats

Only for reading only e-books, the model provides support for 19 file formats. But the built-in store and cloud storage work only in the countries of the European Union, which somewhat limits the functionality of the PocketBook Era. But in general, the model is good on all fronts - it works for a long time on a single battery charge, reads all common file formats, plays audio books, and has thoughtful ergonomics.
