Review: My wife suffered an injury which left her unable to see properly for nearly two years. (Everything was fuzzy and eye glasses didn't help. Scary stuff. -Thankfully, her vision has slowly regenerated and now 90% back to normal). For the first few months, she was effectively blind. Things got better, but it wasn't possible to read anything but huge text. I got her this reader and cranked the font size. She cried. It allowed her to read again. Yeah, a full page of text was only about 8 lines long, but it was possible. So.., my positive feelings toward this reader are colored by some emotion, but I think I can objectively say that it's a well engineered device. Solidly built, the screen is gorgeous, the OS isn't buggy nonsense like I've experienced with other readers. Good battery life. It's basically a standard high-quality e-reader. And it's big. And it wasn't nine hundred dollars like all the others at the time I bought it. (Honestly, it was half the price of competitors, and that felt too good to be true. Turns out to have been the exception to that cynical rule. Sometimes something really is that good.) I will offer one criticism; Personally, I don't like the placement of the physical buttons, (My own little 7" Kobo Libra perfected the ergonomics of the button and the "how-do-I-hold-it?" problem). But my wife doesn't use the buttons, preferring the touch screen feature, so for her it's a non-issue. In any case, we both love the InkPad Lite. Recommended.
Review: This is the ONLY e-reader on the market that ticks all the boxes I care about and ditches stuff I don't: 1. BW, not color = more battery life. If you don't read Manga or anything that benefits from color, just regular books, this is perfect. 2. It runs on Linux = more battery life, less bloat. 3. It's as open source as you can get with e-readers; not fussy about book formats/DRM etc. 4. You can transfer books from your PC via a USB-C cable - no messing around with wireless transfers via email, Dropbox etc (although Dropbox functionality is there if you want it), just drag and drop like you would with an external hard drive. 5. It has a micro SD slot. This bears repeating - IT HAS A MICRO SD SLOT. This is an INCREDIBLY RARE feature now - most companies are forgoing expandable memory with silly features like waterproofing instead. It has 8GB internal storage space which may sound a bit chintzy but come on; that's around 7000 EPUB books! But if that's not enough for you then you can fit more books than you could ever wish for on a Micro SD card and read them from there. 6. You can set up the device without creating any kind of account. Does any other company let you do this these days? 7. It's a great size - most e-readers are 6" or 7" or so, which is great for portability and you can fit in your pocket, but for reading in the house the text area on this device is just about exactly the same size as a large paperback which I think is perfect, and if you don't care about note taking with styluses etc that most devices around 10" concentrate on this is the one to get. 8. It has physical page turn buttons, and they're conveniently placed to the side of the screen, not beneath it, like the Inkpad 4. Side buttons are great for reading on a stand, whereas ones at the foot of the device are a bit awkward 9. It has a fairly large 2200mAh battery and it lasts a LONG time - many weeks between recharges, mostly because the device is BW, and running on Linux. This is the second Inkpad Lite I've bought but there's nothing wrong with the first. The reason I bought this is because it seems like the last of a dying breed, and as it first appeared on the market 4 years ago I'm assuming it will be discontinued at some point soon and there's nothing else on the market that has this feature set. As a side note, people complain about the 150PPI resolution, but the quality of the text on all the books I've read looks great to me - it's as good as or better than text on the page of a real book so I don't think I care what the number is. TLDR: This is a great device for someone with a PC and a large library of books downloaded from various places who wants a bigger screen and is sick of the restrictions that come with most ebook readers today.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you rotate the ereader for reading left handed?**
A: Hello. InkPad Lite has g-sensor, which enables screen rotation.

**Q: How do you easily transfer books from an iPad to this device?**
A: If the books were bought from Appstore, you can not transfer them since they might be in the unsupported format. 
However, there are several ways to copy purchased books onto a Pocketbook device:

1. Pocketbook Cloud. Register a Cloud account and synchronize it with your Pocketbook.
2. Send-to-Pocketbook. Send books to a registered email address and get them on your device.
3. Browser. Download books directly from your Pocketbook device using a built-in web browser (only for touch screen models).
4. Direct copy. Transfer books directly onto your device using a PC and a USB cable.

Attention! The majority of books are DRM-protected. To be able to read DRM-protected books, you should create an Adobe ID and log in your account on your Pocketbook.
Pocketbook does not support books purchased at Amazon. ​

**Q: Hello, 
Can I use a stylus on it? and take notes on each page of the book?**
A: I'd imagine a capacitive stylus would work but be careful not to scratch the screen, this is by no means a drawing tablet. yes you can take notes in each page within a book and also every note contained within the reader for every book on the device may be listed.

**Q: What capacity sd card does this inkpad lite allow? some descriptions say 128 gb, but this amazon page says up to 32 gb. are there different options?**
A: PocketBook InkPad Lite support MicroSD cards. The maximum size – up to 128GB, the optimal Speed Classes – from Class 2 to Class 10.

Important! such card needs to be formatted before its usage (Settings - Maintenance - Format SD card). You will find detailed instructions how to install the MicroSD card into the device in the User Manual on page 17. https://support.pocketbook-int.com/fw/970/u/6.5.2897/manual/ww/User_Manual_InkPad_Lite_EN.pdf

*by P***R on 21 July 2024*

sono molto soddisfatto di questo reader che uso da oltre 6 mesi. Lo schermo di grosse dimensioni rende particolarmente agevole la lettura di qualsiasi genere di file, ma il vantaggio maggiore rispetto all'uso di lettori con schermi piu piccoli (di 6 / 8 pollici) si nota leggendo libri in formato pdf, nonchè testi contenenti schemi, diagrammi e naturalmente con i fumetti. la qualità dello schermo è molto buona, installando nello slot SD una memoria da 128GB si ha spazio per una quantità sterminata di libri. il software è molto buono e gestisce senza problemi anche librerie veramente corpose. Lo consiglio!!
