Why By An E-book Reader When She Has a Tablet?
Many women love to read. And nowadays most read electronic books. Quite often though people don't have a dedicated e-book reader and will read on a tablet or smartphone instead.. If she loves to read and she doesn’t have an e-book reader, it makes the perfect gift. Here’s why:
Storage
An e-book reader will normally hold thousands of books. You can pretty much have your book collection to hand wherever you have your e-book reader. A tablet has limited storage for books and normally it’s also used to store videos, photos and apps.
Therefore you will always need to update and change the books you have on a tablet or smartphone. With an e-book reader you won't need to do this so much, if at all.
Battery Life
The battery life on an e-book reader is so much longer than a tablet. Some e-book readers hold their charge for a matter of weeks. For a tablet it’s generally hours. So you only have to charge your e-book reader monthly rather than daily.
This makes an e-book reader perfect for taking on vacation, for long journeys and going anywhere where there is no electricity available.
Screen glare
E-book readers are a lot easier on the eyes than a tablet. They have less screen glare. Also some e-book readers can be read both indoors and outdoors in bright sunlight. It is often different to see a tablet screen outdoors so this is a real plus.
No distractions
When reading on your tablet it’is easy to become distracted by notifications from e-mails or social media. This is eliminated when you’re on a e-book reader.
Lightweight
E-book readers tend to be extremely lightweight. They are really easy to hold and read from no matter what position your are lying or sitting in. They should be comfortable to read with one hand depending on which one you get.
Font and Resolution
The fonts on e-book readers are often designed for faster reading without eyestrain. This is something to look out for when choosing an e-reader. Often the text is displayed in a higher resolution than those on a tablet which again makes it easier on the eyes. They often have a lot of different text sizes you can choose from so you can choose the one that is right for you.
Other features
Depending on the e-book reader you choose, there are generally other useful features. These can include things such as dictionaries so you can quickly and easily look up words . Some allow you to connect with a community of readers very easily. Many will be able to tell you how long it will take to finish a chapter. Some readers have built in lights for use at night. There are features which will allow you to keep your place in a book so you can look back at what you have read or skim forward and come back to where you were. Also, take and share notes.
