Customer Ratings & Reviews

My review has nothing against Best Buy and their shopping experience, shipping, and delivery of this product. I spent several months considering my options regarding which Android based ereader to purchase because I have books scattered across so many apps. I went with the Go 6 because it was cheaper and I didnt *need* a color ereader. I struggle to imagine the sizes of things and found this to be delightfully tiny (my first ereader was bigger) and light which is a big pro for me physically. Size wise in comparison it is a little shorter than my phone (Samsung Galaxy S23+) and about an 1½ inches wider. Unfortunately the battery life is abysmal. The battery is very reminiscent of my 2012 smartphone. I connected my earphones via Bluetooth and tried running an audiobook with no light on and watched my battery drain from 100% to 70% in a matter of half an hour and that was with the device also throwing a tantrum to even start playing the book. The UI is very slow. I also tried an ebook and even with adjustments the ghosting is very distracting. I wanted to love it, but I'm returning it for the Go color 7.

This is E reader is great, it is better than I expected. I needed something bigger than my phone but smaller than my iPad and this is the perfect size. I can read on it for hours and my eyes don’t hurt. I can hold it in my hand without it slipping because it’s too small. The screen is so clear and so easy to customize. You can change the font size, the lock screens, when to automatically shut off in case you set it down for too long. There are so many nice features that you can’t beat especially for the price. I thought about purchasing the Palma but I am so glad I purchased this model. I hope it last me for many years because it is my favorite e reader so far.
