WHAT’S NEW?

Truly open

Unlike other ebook readers, inkBOOK is not locked to only one retailer. It lets you install third-party applications so you can access as many bookstores as you like.

Touchscreen display

inkBOOK Classic 2 now includes a touchscreen interface, which makes it easier to use.

Innovative Physical Buttons’ mechanism

The page turn buttons are essential to deliver the best reading experience. The all-new inkBUTTONS™ mechanism makes buttons more consistent in how they respond to your touch making reading more comfortable.

No more accidental page turns

You can turn off the display’s touch feature while reading to eliminate accidental page turns.

Efficient battery

Powered by 30% bigger battery than other popular e-readers on the market inkBOOK provides longer battery life on a single charge.

Reading without barriers

The OpenDyslexic font was created to help with some of the symptoms of dyslexia. Wider letter spacing and consistently weighted bottoms aid in recognizing correct letters, and understanding texts.

High Contrast mode

High contrast mode displays text as a negative — white font and black background, to increase contrast, and make reading easier for low vision users.

Tailored to you

No matter if you are left or right-handed — now you can read far more comfortably with customizable buttons. Simply adjust their functions to fit your reading habits.

Quick start

Readers who have not yet experienced an e-reader will be surprised by how easy it is to read on. With the help of step-by-step guides, inkBOOK Classic 2 is really simple to use by readers at any age.

Designed for reading

inkBOOK Classic 2 is only 9 mm thick and is one of the lightest e-readers on market. It is perfectly balanced for one-handed reading.

Powerful like never before

inkBOOK Classic 2 is equipped with a fast dual-core processor. Opening apps or books takes less time improving your reading experience.

Multilingual

inkBOOK is available in many languages e.g English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish, Romanian, Czech, and more.

COMFORTABLE E-READING

E-paper

Unlike smartphone and tablets, the inkBOOK Classic 2 is equipped with an e-paper E Ink Carta™ display that was designed specifically for enjoyable reading. Electronic ink is made up of millions of tiny microcapsules. When an electric field is applied black or white capsules rearrange to form the text and graphics.

Eye-friendly

In an e-paper display, no backlight is used. This attribute mimics traditional ink and paper. As a result, it does not cause eyestrain even on long reading sessions.

Weeks without charging

One of the biggest advantages of an e-paper display is its low-power consumption. Once charged battery lasts weeks, not hours. (2)

Superior clarity

With the E Ink Carta™ screen, the displayed content is crisp and easy to read ― even in direct sunlight. Clear text and rapid page-turns help you read faster with less eyestrain.

ERGONOMICS

User-friendly interface

The home screen was designed to be easy to use. Access recent books and apps faster with just one tap.

Comfortable navigation

Tap, hold or swipe. With familiar multi-touch gestures, you use inkBOOK like you use a smartphone or a tablet ― easily.

Start where you left off

You will never need to bookmark your last place in the book, because inkBOOK remembers for you and always opens to the last page you read.

Read as you like

Select your favorite font, change its size, adjust margins, and even rotate the screen to create your perfect page.

Highlights, bookmarks, annotations

By using the on-screen keyboard, you can add annotations to text, just like in the margins of a book. Highlight and bookmark pages to mark important information and sections.

Check translations & definitions

If you ever come across a word you don't know just use the built-in dictionary. inkBOOK lets you instantly look up the definition or translation without ever leaving the book. (3)

Comfortable reading of complex PDF documents

Use PDF reflow feature to extract pure text from a PDF page and to comfortably read it in a single column, without left/right scrolling and with the font size of your choice.

Pan and zoom

Tap twice to zoom into any area of a PDF and pan around to more easily view small print and detailed tables and graphics. (3)

Simple to use

Classic’s interface has been designed with simplicity in mind. Access recently added and read books faster from the main screen and continue reading right away. inkBOOK provides commonly used options like jump-to-page, adjusting the font type and size.

VERSATILITY

Multiple file format support

The device supports an international e-book EPUB standard with Adobe DRM protection system, and many other popular file formats.

Why buy an eReader?

It may be stating the obvious but eReaders are designed specifically to make eBook reading easy on the eye.
Of course you can read eBooks on a tablet or even a smart phone by using an App, BUT long reading sessions (especially in difficult light conditions) can strain the eyes. eReaders are much nicer to use and better for your sight.
All inkBOOK devices support the Amazon Kindle App. You can read all your Amazon Kindle books on inkBOOK, but can also read books from other retailers too. inkBOOK is an android device that has all the benefits of an eReader. Have more choice with inkBOOK.
