Amazon Kindle Paperwhite review

The Amazon Kindle Paperwhite is a great ebook reader, with a built-in light that makes for clear, comfortable reading, even in the dark. Read more

Amazon Kindle Touch review

The Amazon Kindle Touch lets you intuitively touch the screen to turn pages, but its processor speed is sluggish. Read more

Amazon Kindle review

Amazon has slimmed down the Kindle to make it even more affordable, without cutting too many corners. It's a bargain that will let you enjoy the best ebook ecosystem around. Read more

Endless Ideas BeBook review

Relatively compact and lightweight, the BeBook has an excellent screen that's almost as easy on the eye as a real book. A plasticky design and sluggish menu system don't do the device any favours, but compensation comes in the form of exceptional battery life, and good font and file-format support Read more

Kobo Vox review

The Kobo Vox may be cheap, but its poor power makes it frustrating to use. While we like Kobo's ebook service, we don't like this tablet. Read more

Samsung E60 review

The Samsung E60 ebook reader is simply too expensive and too difficult to use. If you're after a smooth design and higher functionality, get yourself an Amazon Kindle instead. Read more

Bookeen Cybook Gen3 review

Like Coronation Street, books have remained remarkably untouched by modern technology. There's been a spate of ebook readers recently, however, so perhaps the humble book is ready for a 21st century upgrade. French company Bookeen certainly thinks so with this, the third generation of its Cybook Read more

ViewSonic VEB612 review

The VEB612 ebook reader is attractively styled, sufficiently compact so that it's comfortable to hold, and light enough so that it won't push you over the hand-luggage limit when you're off on holiday. Its software could be better, but there are far worse ways to read a digital book Read more

Sony Reader PRS-505 review

Sony's newly released Reader PRS-505 trumps the competiting ebook readers, if you ask us. Its design is more attractive and it's significantly cheaper than its rivals. It's also rather pleasant to use, with a 600x800-pixel resolution e-ink display that simply doesn't feel like a screen Read more

iRex iLiad review

The iRex iLiad has the best screen we've seen on an ebook reader -- it's made using E Ink technology, which doesn't flicker and doesn't use a backlight. It also has built-in Wi-Fi. But is that enough to make us burn our paperbacks? Read more
