Tried it: Energy Sistem book readers - the end days of printed books?
We will treat these two readers as one, as there is no difference between them in terms of the color of the cover and the background storage. As you can read on the introductory pages, E-Ink today is by no means dominant as a display for book readers. The Color Book doesn’t have either that, but a 5-inch image diagonal and a resolution of 800 × 400 pixels TFT Equipped with LCD panel.
Due to the display, we can expect a higher energy hunger than this device, which is also indicated by the fact that the battery is 1800 mAh. Since the color display and built-in 4- and 8GB of memory now allow you to view pictures and movies, the manufacturer has not specified how many pages we can read on a single charge.
The machine has been enriched with several functions due to the color display. Since watching movies is now available, several new file formats have been added to the repertoire. True, support for not only cinematic but also other formats has improved over the first reader. So the following files can be read, viewed, listened to on the members of the Color Book series: TXT, HTML, PDF, EPUB, FB2, RTF, MOBI, CHM, DOC, WMA, MP3, JPG, BMP, PNG, GIF, MP4, WMV, AVI, RMVB, FLV, ASF, 3GP, MOV. Additional features include marking pages in books, enlarging text in four steps, choosing from five different fonts, adjusting the width of the margin, and rotating the image, which is especially useful for movies and pictures.
The accessories also include a USB cable, through which you can upload files to the reader, find a charger and get the standard earphones.
