10 months agoMaybe look into an Onyx Boox instead of a Kindle. It will let you download books straight from the web (like standardebooks.org and Project Gutenberg) without having to side load. Also, you can add the Libby and Overdrive apps to it since it accesses the Google Play store. Also, it accepts all files formats so you don’t have to convert anything.
I think I got lucky and got one of the models with improved battery (Onyx Boox Page). I’ve been reading the Trigun manga on it for over a week now and it’s only just getting to the point where I need to charge it finally.
But good point. Some of the older models might have worse battery life to consider. I only have a black and white model too. Color might use more battery.
