Rank 6 out of 6Stiftung WarentesteBook-Reader im Test - So lässt es sich lesenReleaseMay 2022

Has no WiFi, no touchscreen and no screen illumination. Users have to transfer new books awkwardly by cable. Device is pleasantly light. The display is quite scratch-sensitive. There are better devices for the price.
