Model overview based on user reviews  
The PocketBook InkPad 3 is praised for its high-quality and large screen, making it ideal for reading, especially with its adjustable backlight for low-light conditions. Users appreciate its ability to handle heavy formats without slowing down, and the ample memory capacity that negates the need for additional memory cards. However, some users have experienced issues with durability, reporting that the device broke after a year of use, with problems such as the screen not responding to touch. Another user noted a hidden battery defect that causes the device to require an external power source despite a full charge. While the e-reader is convenient and functional for reading, these technical issues have left some users dissatisfied.

An excellent book, with a large and high-quality screen and backlight.
13 February 2020 
A wonderful book, I use it all the time, especially when traveling. The reason for buying this particular book was a slightly larger screen compared to other models, well, I wanted a backlight to read with the lights off or, for example, on a train, where I often go. The screen is chic, clear, high resolution. I don’t look at the pictures, but the text is pleasant to read, even small. The backlight is uniform, you can change the saturation. There is a browser, but I use it only for downloading books. There is a lot of memory, enough for hundreds of elections, so I see no point in using memory cards. The battery lasts for a month of use, I think this is an excellent indicator. The case is completely plastic, nothing special. It was important for me to support PDF and that it did not slow down. Because sometimes I read working papers. I did not notice any problems with this format, it was just that before that there was a similar book, but older, then large PDFs slowed down there, and sometimes even hung up. For the rest. there are no comments, except that sometimes I would like to listen to music or the same book, but this is not provided.
High-quality and large screen, fully satisfies the need for reading. Nice lighting, adjustable. Does not slow down when reading heavy and capacious formats.
Lacks a headphone jack.

If you want to give 6-7 thousand UAH for the year of using the book - this is your choice

Book for a year. Left very dissatisfied. Been using it for a year and not too much. I read about 3 hours a week. Recently, the screen began to work on pressing every other time. Reboot helped. But then the day came when the keys work, but the screen does not and nothing helps. Now I have a brick. I do not recommend absolutely!
Worked fine for a year
Broke after a year

hidden battery defect
12 August 2020 
convenient format
everything was fine, but gradually a problem arose: you can only read with help. external source, despite the fact that the battery is full. charged. Even taking into account the external source, the book periodically goes out and then turns on again, but not on the reading page, but on the one that was open when it was first turned on. By the way, the memory is not overloaded
use PocketBook InkPad 3 month or more i recommend it don't buy
