I've bought the Remarkable 2 and probably 10 Kindles over the past decade.
I have never once been like, "You know what this eink device needs? Color!"
I get that it might be a draw for some people but this just isn't appealing to me and I can't see the mass market use case for color besides color being neat.
- abdela 3y agoHonest question, why did you buy 10 kindle devices in 10 years?
- paulcole 3y agoI like to upgrade them (the battery life, screen, refresh rate, etc. have all gotten consistently better over the years), I usually have one to leave at work and one for home use, and I give the hand-me-downs to friends and family. You can also sell them back to Amazon for a pretty good bonus when it’s time to upgrade. I think I sent back an old paperwhite and got $50 + 20% off my Scribe. Right now I have an Oasis and a Scribe that I use about equally. Reading is one of my bigger hobbies, I read around 100 books a year on Kindle.
- abdela 3y agoInteresting, thank you. With regard to the refresh rate, I saw a recent eReader recently, the difference with my nine year old eReader is striking indeed.
