Yeah I guess really I mean something that doesn't have the ability to check email, bleep at you for an incoming text and all that other crap. I personally get screen fatigue so I use paper. But to me the important part is that it's "just a book", not a book that will try to make you change what you're doing every 10 minutes!
- futureproofd 6y agoI'll argue that using an Android-based tablet with the latest "digital well-being" features are superior to any e-reader. A few things on this worth noting: - Making notes / taking highlights. The touchscreen navigation is far easier and fluid in making selections. Furthermore, you get an automatic sync to google drive feature - Indexing: The speed for searching the entire text contents for keywords is much faster and again, a more seamless, non-janky experience - Lookups: Built in dictionaries are much faster and easier to navigate / dismiss - Readability: OLED with inverted text and red-light dimming makes for an excellent reading experience, lights on/off - Distractions: You can limit these with bedtime and focus modes
- mackrevinack 6y agothere are a few eink tablets that run android as well. onyx boox is one brand of the top of my head that uses android 10 so it's still fairly up to date. i never considered an oled even though! I mainly just want something I can install syncthing on so i can add books and articles from my laptop and have them show up on the device.
