Comparison of e-readers
Comparison of devices for reading e-books
This article needs to be updated . Please help update this article to reflect recent events or newly available information. (January 2020 )
An e-reader , also known as an e-book reader, is a portable electronic device that is designed primarily for the purpose of reading e-books and periodicals . E-readers have a similar form factor to a tablet ; usually use electronic paper resulting in better screen readability, especially in bright sunlight ; and have longer battery life when compared to a tablet. An e-reader's battery will typically last for multiple weeks. In contrast to an e-reader, a tablet has a screen capable of higher refresh rates which make them more suitable for interaction such as playing a video game or watching a video clip .[ 1]
Types of electronic-paper displays
Comparison of screen to paper size: A5 paper, 10.1-inch (257 mm) screen and A4 paper
All electronic paper types offer lower power consumption and better sunlight contrast than LCDs . Some offer a backlight to allow low-light reading. With the backlight turned off, all have a similar appearance to "ink on paper" and are readable in bright environments.
E ink : E Ink Corporation 's 1st-generation technology, also known as E Ink Vizplex. Although "eInk" may be used to talk about all electronic paper displays, "eInk" and "E Ink" are trademarked by E Ink, which provides the majority of the electronic paper displays used in devices.
E Ink Pearl : E Ink's 2nd-generation technology, which has higher contrast and a greater number of different levels of gray than their earlier technology. A further revision of Pearl is Mobius , which uses flexible plastic in the display.
E Ink Triton : E Ink's 3rd-generation technology that featured the ability to show color in the display.
E Ink Carta : E Ink's 4th-generation technology, which has higher contrast and a greater number of different levels of gray than their earlier technology; the displays have a pixel density between 212 and 300 ppi.
E Ink Kaleido: E Ink's colour e-paper display supporting up to 4096 colours, used in various e-readers such as BOOX Go Color 7 and Kobo Libra Colour
SiPix: A former competitor to E Ink, which had displays with almost instantaneous page turns. It was acquired by E Ink in December 2012.
LG Flex: Electronic paper that allows a flexible screen ; is still in development. With these displays, the user is able to bend the e-reader without damaging it and can fold it up to put in a pocket.
Electronic-paper readers come in various sizes. Many small e-readers have display diagonal sizes around 150 or 180 mm (6 or 7 in), while some of the large commercially available readers have display sizes around A5 (257 mm (10.1 in)) or A4 size (364 mm (14.3 in)).
Commercially available devices sold by maker or designer
Notes:
Library DRM compatible – Can be used to borrow e-books from public libraries, e.g. the EPUB and/or PDF formats with digital-rights-management (DRM) are supported.
"microSDHC" is the most popular format for external memory cards. Devices which support a different card have that format listed.
Listed are only products for which either the product itself or its company is notable, as shown by having a Wikipedia article (without notability notice).

Other mobile text viewers
A Symbian OS smartphone used as an e-book reader
All modern (Windows Mobile , iOS , Android , BlackBerry , Linux ) smartphones, tablets and other generic computing devices have e-book reading software.
Some portable multimedia players and older phones include a text viewer, e.g. several Cowon players, including the Cowon D2 and the iAUDIO U3 and Mobipocket Reader for Symbian OS. Palm OS based devices and smartphones are also usable for reading books. Palm OS supports PalmDoc, iSilo, Mobipocket reader, PDF, HTML conversion, text format, Handstory, TealDoc among many other software titles, and word processing.
