Many appreciate its great size, amazing screen quality, and lightweight design, with some also enjoying the available color. While some find the user interface a little clunky and the price a bit expensive, glare is not an issue for users.

    Very good product; would absolutely recommend. The only downside is the page transitions when you swipe to the next page. It feels quite subtle and a bit unnatural.
