In many stores, the reader from the PocketBook company has become famous under the identical model name — Touch Lux 3. This nuance must be taken into account when searching for a device.
advanced screen
From its predecessor in the face of Pocket Book Touch Lux 626, which still enjoys well-deserved popularity with the public, the book has a more advanced screen. It is built using E Ink Carta technology — the substrate has become whitish, and the characters on the display are more contrasting. Otherwise, the "reader" repeats all the features of the younger brother, because he turned out to be truly successful and easy to use.
Assembly
The build quality of the device is extremely positive. In the hand, it feels monolithic, which is achieved thanks to a convenient ledge on the back cover. But you can still make a complaint about the plastic case — it is easily soiled and collects fingerprints. The case, which is sold separately from the device, will help to correct the situation.
Read all!
The reader can easily read the vast majority of modern e-book formats, including Amazon's proprietary MOBI "reader" resolution. You can store text files both in the internal memory of the device (out of 4 GB, about 3 GB is available to the user), and on a microSD memory card (up to 32 GB). Problems with opening books can only occur when trying to read heavy PDF files (over 50 MB in size) — in some cases, the model simply freezes and requires a reboot.
Wireless network
Among the microcircuits of the device, a piece of space is allocated for the Wi-Fi module, through which access to the Internet is opened for downloading books or surfing through a browser. The touch screen makes it easy to navigate, and LED backlighting helps relieve eye strain when trying to view content in low-light conditions.
Comfort
Reading comfort is also achieved by fine-tuning the text display parameters: the book user can change the style and size of fonts, line spacing, hyphens, indents, and other similar settings. And although the title of the flagship PocketBook Touch Lux 626 Plus falls short of just a little, we can recommend it for purchase to everyone without exception, since the reader can offer all the necessary conditions for comfortable consumption of text content.
