The seller in the store of equipment told about the disadvantages of e-books that will disappoint the reader

The age of technology is making many changes in our lives. We are becoming more and more dependent on gadgets that replace our usual things. Now it is not popular to go to libraries, because you can read electronically. Which device is best used for this purpose? Let's try to figure it out.



Despite the rapid development of technology, I love paper books. There's some magic in the smell of new pages, beautiful covers and a home library that you've been collecting for years. However, it is not always convenient to bring a thick book with you.. I remember when I went abroad for a long time, half a suitcase occupied books. That's a solution, of course.



I’ve thought about buying an e-book many times: it’s so much more convenient. A whole library in one gadget. No hurry, I watched a lot of reviews and chatted with a friend who has such a device. And also with a friend who sells equipment. I will tell you what information was collected and why. She decided to buy a “reader” for herself..



Cons of e-books
  1. Fragile. If you accidentally drop an e-book, the consequences can be dire. The fact is that the displays of such devices consist of glass microcapsules that are connected electrically. Because of the slightest blows, not only the damaged part suffers, but everything that was connected.

  2. It's not cheap. On the Internet, there are many stories of people whose e-books failed after a single fall. They start to freeze, stop responding to buttons, and the screen becomes blurry and incorrectly displays information. Well, in most cases, you have to buy a new one, because repairs can cost as much as the gadget itself.


  3. There are no large diagonal books available. Diagonal is very important when reading. You need at least ten inches for eye comfort. Especially when reading scanned files. E-books with a large diagonal, of course, exist, but they cost almost like a laptop. Does it make sense to buy a book at that price?




I don’t even know if it is worth spending money on such a narrowly directed device. I am very afraid that from one fall "Reader" will suffer irreversible damage. And the technique often falls out of my hands, unfortunately. And different things happen during travel.

Maybe, Better to buy a tablet? It can be used for other purposes, not just reading. You can watch movies, work, and sit on the Internet. In addition, tablets are not so fragile and can withstand small falls without deplorable consequences. And in case of repair it will be easier, I think.



I read paper books when I am at home. And if traveling, I upload it to my phone in a special reading app. I won’t say that the phone is very convenient, but at least something.

What would you recommend, dear readers, to make it easy to read? electronically? If someone has a “reader” and experience of breakdown, I will gladly read the reviews.
