PocketBook InkPad X (PB1040-J-CIS)
 | Outdated Product The PocketBook e-book reader is one of the manufacturer's flagship book readers with a large 10.3-inch screen. The model received an aluminium case, which has a positive effect on strength and visual appeal, but does not make the reader much heavier (300 grams). The large, paper-like E Ink Carta display features a high resolution of 1872x1404 pixels, making it an excellent choice for reading a variety of content - books, newspapers, scientific articles, digital magazines, educational literature, etc. Additional advantages of the screen include multi-touch touch control and the presence of SMARTlight backlight, which should take care of comfortable reading in any level of ambient light. The PocketBook X e-book supports all the most popular book file formats. In addition, there is the possib...ility of listening to audiobooks and support for the Text-to-Speech function. The latter is able to voice almost any text document. Additional multimedia features of the "reader" include the presence of a music player with support for MP3 and OGG. Right on the device, you can store a fairly large library of files, because the size of the built-in memory is 32 GB. The “stuffing” of the model includes a 2-core processor with a clock speed of 1 GHz and 1 GB of RAM, a Wi-Fi 4 module, and a 2000 mAh battery that provides up to 15,000 page flips from a single charge. |

Model overview based on user reviews
The PocketBook InkPad X is a highly regarded e-reader known for its large, clear Carta screen that allows for reading even in direct sunlight, with adjustable backlight brightness and temperature. It offers extensive storage of 32 GB, accommodating a vast library of books and comics, although it lacks a memory card slot. The device supports a wide range of formats and includes multimedia features like a dictionary, browser, and audio player, with music playable via USB-C or Bluetooth. Despite its lightweight design, users should handle the screen with care due to its fragility. While the e-reader boasts a long battery life of up to a month, it does not support software or game installations. Some users note the absence of a book-style cover and limited Bluetooth functionality as drawbacks. Overall, the PocketBook InkPad X is praised for its functionality and screen size, though some desire a higher pixel density for even sharper resolution.
Pros
Cons
+ Healthy touchscreen with backlight + Lots of memory for books and comics + Light as a feather + You can listen to music + Really a month without charging because it’s not Android. + Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, and USB-C 2.0 + Pixel-free screen. You can read even under the sun. You can read any document without increasing the font! + Backlight with brightness and temperature control. + Image support + Carta screen (it's the clearest, just so you know) I'll start with the main points; the rest are minor issues. - There's no book-style cover. You need to buy a stand. And that's a hassle! - The Bluetooth can't send or receive files. It's only for headphones/speakers. Minor issues: - No memory card. Even though it's 32 GB (with about 28 available), I love comics, and there are many. - The power button is on the menu button. It's not very convenient, but you get used to it. - The screen is very expensive! About 17-20 thousand from the cost of the book. Take care of it! - You can't install software and games. - The screen is grayer compared to the 740. - The back cover is slightly rounded. When pressed on a table, it will wobble slightly, but not spin. - Due to thin frames, very rarely, there are phantom touches. But holding it in one hand is generally convenient, but not very comfortable.  Tommy Wertz: use PocketBook InkPad X less than month |
300 ppi is just what this screen needs, so we're buying it! Screen size, functionality. Would be better with a higher pixel density. |

Music can be played through USB-C or Bluetooth. Tons of supported formats.
The impressions aren't as strong as from the PocketBook 740, but the large screen still leaves a strong impact.
The screen has a plastic substrate instead of a glass one like the PB740, but it's still fragile. Take care of it! It holds 80% of the e-reader's value!
