There have been plenty of new e-readers that have come out in the past few months, such as the new BOOX ones. There are also some old favourites that people are buying in droves. Springtime is upon us, and many people are searching for a new e-reader to read the latest e-books outside or curl up with a blanket. Here is our list of the best e-readers you can buy right now.
Many companies sell e-readers directly, but most turn to Amazon to reach the widest audience. This is because the devices are stored at fulfillment centres and shipped very fast. There is also the liberal Amazon return policy if something you buy doesn’t meet expectations and can be returned for a full refund. Ordering directly from the manufacturer might result in higher taxes being paid, due to the higher tariffs and longer shipping time. Many of the e-readers on our list are from Amazon.
