Authors Pick 3 Top E-Readers, Favoring Kindle, ReMarkable Paper Pro and iPad Mini
3 articles · Updated · ZDNet · Jun 5
Summary
Published authors highlighted three main reading devices: Amazon Kindle for easy book buying, ReMarkable Paper Pro for annotation, and Apple’s iPad Mini for access across multiple reading apps.
Kindle drew praise for convenience and reading comfort, with authors citing Amazon’s automatic delivery, glare-free E Ink screens and, on the Colorsoft, color highlighting and a 150 ppi color display.
ReMarkable Paper Pro stood out for work-focused reading, editing and PDF markup, with one author saying its larger screen and near-zero-lag writing feel beat Kindle Scribe-style note-taking tools.
Apple’s 8.3-inch iPad Mini appealed to authors who read across Kindle, iBooks and Libby, pairing a 326 ppi display with tight integration across Apple devices.
The picks show authors splitting their preferences by use case rather than backing a single device, with dedicated E Ink readers favored for comfort and specialized tools for annotation or app flexibility.
