An excellent book, even despite its cost. I thoroughly enjoyed using it, as did my daughter. The book includes apps, among them a colorful coloring book. That surprised me since they could have skipped that, but they didn’t. My daughter often sits and searches for new drawings (there is a store with thousands of drawings). It’s very fast, you flip pages and don't even notice. The touchscreen is very responsive and accurate. You can't watch videos, but reading comics is a pleasure. Regular books too. As I already mentioned, it’s very fast. The build quality is top-notch. It's pleasant to hold the book in your hands. The screen is colorful but lacks contrast and saturation. Pictures seem unfinished. This is for those who think you can fully view photos on the book - you can't. There’s no Android, but the built-in OS is very convenient and quick. The battery lasts more than a month. A good book, convenient to use. The screen is decent, both in sunlight and without it. The update isn't lightning-fast, but it doesn't drain the battery. The body is nice. I like the speed of its performance. Missing Android.  Maks: use PocketBook 740 Color few months |
Before the release of PocketBook 740 Colour, the evolution of electronic "readers" was a very measured step. However, this model has turned the reader industry on its head, as it brings a completely new user experience with e-books. And that's why.
large caliber
The gadget has a paper-like eInk Kaleido screen with support for displaying 4096 shades of colour. From the standard 6" diagonally, its dimensions have grown to 7.8" — and this changes the very essence of displaying colour publications. It is much more comfortable to read magazine articles, tutorials with illustrations and diagrams, and view comics on an enlarged caliber display. In addition, the screen of the model supports touch control.
adaptive backlight
The PocketBook 740 Colour uses regular white backlighting without colour temperature adjustment, which would distort the colour reproduction of the screen. The intensity of the backlight is adjusted both manually and automatically depending on the ambient light conditions. You can quickly adjust it with vertical gestures to the left or right of the touch screen layer.
Voiceover of books
The model runs under the light operating system Linux. The reader has 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage space in the built-in storage. Books of almost any format and audio files are loaded into the device's memory. Also, to store your own library, an expansion slot for a microSD card is provided. A notable feature of the e-reader is Text-to-Speech, which provides voice acting for regular books in different languages. Yes, the accents are sometimes placed incorrectly and sometimes there are stutters, but in general, the PocketBook 740 Colour “digests” texts in a decent way and broadcasts audiobooks through headphones or portable speakers via Bluetooth.
