For readers that read for hours at a time, this eBook is for you. The e-ink screen doesn’t hurt your eyes if you read for an extended period of time. This is a great feature for an eBook because most people who are willing to go out and buy an eBook are heavy readers, so they want an eBook that they can read for hours on end without worrying about the screen hurting their eyes. The only downside there is for heavy readers is the turn-page button, which is hard to press. After hours of reading you will find your hand aching a bit from having to press down on the turn-page button, which is definitly something most readers do not want to have to worry about. Not only is the button hard to press, but it is not always responsive. You may find yourself having to press the turn-page button multiple times just to continue reading.
