The Inkpad Color is a superb e-reader that really demonstrates how far E INK has come in the past few years. I was not a fan of the first generation Kaleido e-paper. There were simply too many problems with it to be viable, colors just looked too washed out. Luckily, all of the issues have been sorted out and the this e-reader is the best one you can buy right now. If you bought a Pocketbook Color last year and are itching for an upgrade, you might want to take a serious look at it.

It is utilizing E INK Kaleido 2, which provides better color accuracy and greyscale, resulting in the first 7.8 inch device that is aimed at a worldwide audience.

The Pocketbook InkPad Color is running Linux, which is the same Operating system the company has run for over a decade. This is how they can get away with a dual core processor and 1GB of RAM, because Linux doesn’t have a bunch of background processes like Android. Pocketbook always gets more out of their hardware than the competition.

One of the best aspects of Pocketbook, is their support for a myriad of ebook formats.
