Pocketbook Inkpad Lite 9.7" LARGE SCREEN e-Reader Full Review

The Pockebook Inkpad Lite is exclusively designed to be a solid large screen ebook reader that has USB-C and supports an SD card up to 128GB. It has a sunken screen and bezel design, so it does not reflect light like a glass based screen.
In this review we give you our impressions of the hardware, such as the manual page turn keys. We also look at the software and how it handles sideloaded ebooks and PDF files.

I loved my Kindle Dx, so funny you mentioned it. This looks like a solid reader option and I'm not too upset about the limited note taking capabilities. That's what you have a dedicated tablet for. Thanks for the great review, and the contest.

[@goodereader]

CONGRATULATIONS you have won the BIGME color Note taking tablet! Head over to the contest video for details!

[@fatimamine8538]

Congratulations man, I wish I could be lucky like you next time. Let's hope Peter will give away an onyx boox or a boyue e-reader ☺️☺️☺️

[@SpaceMonkey13X]

@@fatimamine8538 Thanks! I'll cross my fingers for you. Who knows what they might choose for their next contest.

[@budnick1]

Great reviews generally, but you guys need a better PDF review for this. For example, how well does it do margin cropping on big textbook or article PDFs?

[@serigneo]

I've been using Pocketbook for a while and I love it so far: good response and support. I need a bigger device, 6" are completely obsolete. Thank you for the review and the giveaway!

[@Alexchii]

6 inches is the perfect size for an ebook. For anything else you need to go bigger.

[@asmabedoui9619]

Large screen e-Readers are handy when it comes to reading effortlessly and decrease of mental exertion. The review was a thorough one. Thank you and thanks for the new contest and giveaway.

[@fishushu]

As someone who likes to read on big surfaces, this looks likes the perfect solution to my "little" problem of having a decade old dead e-reader in my hands atm. And the note taking may not be perfect, but I have a feeling it'll be quite useful for me, as I love to write down small notes as I read and not having to pull some other device is quite a good thing.

[@katobrucelee08]

Love this channel and love the contests! This channel got me hooked on e-ink!!

[@felw4292]

Feels like a good size for an ereader! I like how it has sd card and note taking support

[@anamarques2309]

I like the fact that you can use this kind of pen on the screen, great review

[@loathethisapparatus588]

I were considering buying it , only if it had pressure sensitivity but I loved the functionality of writing on existing documents.

[@shanelleshirra6613]

This a great review. Thank you! Trying to save up for an ebook while trying to see which is the best in the long run 🤣

[@jamieshan]

Another solid e-reader! I'm really getting addicted to these devices in my quest to find the perfect one. Just got the Nova Air, but I like the screen size of this one.

[@supertrexandroidx]

Yep, looks like a good one

[@Lukas79591]

That's some screen size, indeed. I thing 10" would be a great standard, at the end, it's just the most comfortable as for me. I'm just eager to see more color devices with similar characteristics and that much of a screen.

[@brunabarreto3474]

This one is a dream! I wish it could be affordable here in Brazil. Maybe one day. Great Review!

[@sergiovizcardo5016]

Great review. Nice to see all these new products.

[@LuiB]

Ive been following this channel for a while! Finally subscribed and hopefully win a contest!

[@SimonLo0926]

Thank you for the review. It looks great

[@JPChampion]

My Kindle DX is getting on in years. I like that this one has dedicated page turn buttons.

[@rejephekimov3325]

The contests on this channel are awesome 🎉

[@vh9040]

I’m going to get this. Thanks for the review. Does the Inkpad Lite reading app have night mode?

[@mauriciomolas6263]

The contests on this channel are awesome

[@user-pe4ik9mz5w]

It looks nice, the side control button make it even better!

[@ZeroHart]

I actually got the smaller pocket book and I am liking it so far.

[@KensVideoSpot]

When I see a screen that size, I ALWAYS want the ability to rotate the screen horizontally and get a two-page view, just like reading a paperback book. It's literally the ONLY thing I want from a device like that - to mimic a real book, and I wish e-reader reviews would make such a critique standard. Maybe I missed it, though ... did you discuss screen rotation/2-page view? (For something that is built to be a purely dedicated e-reader, with a LOT of real estate, I think it's totally reasonable to expect this.)

[@KuroTheBlackCat]

Hopefully we get an answer on such a basic question! It’s important to know and the review could be more precise with the reading experience !

[@kiyoshimatsutsuyu1931]

I wish I knew...😅 Will buy and find out

[@mabelaye7707]

Shared on my news feed on Facebook. This size is needed minimally yo read documents in pdf (📃). Nice video btw!

[@stevemadison2647]

Thanks for the nice eReader review. And I am also entering the Bigme contest. Cheers!

[@krishnachaitanyasattaru165]

It's good that atleast someone is making a dedicated large screen e-reader

[@wingyu99]

WOW, something I want for Xmas.

[@zaneverran3345]

Thanks for linking through to your store ... I'll be checking it out later. : )

[@javierfuentes86]

Always making great content!!!

[@allcrafter3747]

Sounds very Interesting. Love your Channel. Very good review

[@marlenepalma2011]

Thank you for the review!

[@JamesonOng]

Nice video! Really consodering a larger screened reader.

[@saracastrillon7367]

Wait for it..... So excited for the contest😋😋😋😋

[@coolcola2009]

The browser function seems nice, just added this to my wish list

[@jrossisantos]

I love your reviews.

[@IvernLumeria]

Great review on a great device. Thanks.

[@SpruceGumRules]

Got mine a month ago! Love it. For the price it's a great deal for me to get a basic reader with a few extras. I got it connect to local electronic library and it works seamlessly with days left overlaid on cover! One click return! The imbedded DRM is great too just download file and Pocketbook Lite just downloaded book!

[@vakke]

I want my first E-ink tablet and start a new journey!

[@pingmetal]

Do you think this size is a must for reading PDFs or a little bit smaller device would do?

[@stumblmer1899]

I'm commenting for the BigMe giveaway contest but thanks always for e-reader and e-ink content

[@leothefirst]

Awesome! I'd like one of these! Too bad they're so expensive to import to my country

[@hogasiulian7563]

Nice! Hope to get rid of my Remarkable 2 after the connect thing!

[@world_notexisted]

Only knew this brand few months ago, seems pretty good.

[@aresaguilera3500]

Would love to use this for school. Just too expensive considering how much school already is.

[@rickycasillas]

Wow! this deivce looks incredible!

[@MohammadAlmeqdadi]

Awesome pocketbook! I wish I can get one!

[@christopherdenton722]

I love these likebook tablets.. I currently own a T80D and couldn't read without it. Hope I win. Love that Chinese tablet in COLOR.

[@RynoDBones]

I’m here for the contest….I was told there would be punch and pie? No? (Shared to Twitter, too)

[@longidude7048]

Great review!!!

[@ydna123123]

The screen is quite impressive. Thanks for the giveaway!

[@musashi_kun]

Thank you for making this review and the giveaway!

[@UlisesMendozaS]

Interesting device for basic note taking and reading

[@biochrome]

Such a cool e-ink reader!

[@Motley365]

Want one of these for sure

[@harrysteeletreo1]

Great e-reader youtube channel!

[@lineyrios7840]

Wait for it. I really wanna win the contest😍😍😍😍😍

[@danielsoto7307]

What a great price for the large screen of the device!

[@brainbirat1158]

I am looking for the good e-reader especially reading text books with colour format...any suggestions...thank you in advance...& Thanks Goodereader for great videos👍

[@tevk]

I had the Kindle DX back when it came out, my main right now is a Kindle Voyage, crisp, but tiny. Also contest, yay!

[@hartraft888]

Looks nice on a big e-Reader and the refresh rate looks decent

[@NoOrdinaryScholar]

I wish it had access to other ebook sites I really want to start buying more from kobo so I can support local book stores

[@TrooperJet]

How are PDFs doing? 1) slow? 2) conversion? is it terribly adjusted after the conversion? - is the screen large enough to be able to display readable text (font size) with no conversion at all needed?

[@sajidahmed4834]

Looking forward to a review on the new Note 5 & Note Air 2

[@rogzz2451]

Finally SD card support! Too bad said device is not available locally here, not to mention the cost would be too steep for my budget. Here's to hoping on winning a free color e-reader! Good luck to those who joined as well!

[@userwithacloak7338]

This device looks soo good.

[@vh9040]

I ordered an Inkpad Lite from the Good Ereader store on October 13. The order has been “processing” since then. Is there a delay in getting stock or shipping?

[@cd8048]

This is one of the best options available rn.

[@loddynoddy]

This is looking like a rather tempting alternative to a kobo forma 2 if it ever gets released

[@abhivalaboju874]

Thanks for the video.

[@binaryblog]

Thx for the review. How fast is the font size change on larger books with > 500 pages? On the Pocketbook Touch HD 3 and X it takes over 20 sec :(

[@BALATamoghna-Your-Boss]

Excited!

[@fabriciokendor]

I must to buy It!!! Amazing!

[@marisolgonzalez221]

Thanks for the video What firmware runs on this device, v5 or v6?

[@crazylina1975]

I got mine ,but it doesnt want to read sd cards. Any idea why?

[@bungau]

Large eink screens are good, the only drawback for me is the weight. This is pretty light for it's size!

[@biga8218]

Would you recommend this for reading manga? if not what you suggest?

[@gaborcsejtey4732]

It's an OK video for an introduction like an unboxing review.

[@BK-oy9pl]

I'm thinking to get one of this, to replace and old (how ever still working) Sony PRS-T1 - still hesitating..

[@rodhernandez4134]

This one is interesting but I recently got the Likebook P10 based on your recommendation. I like the flexibility of it, though it is a little slow. But that is o.k.

[@mikebocchinfuso9437]

I received a Kindle for Christmas 2014 and updated it to a paper white in 2017. The recent software update is more confusing than the previous version

[@ngochungphi]

Thank you so much for reviewing and giveaway. 😁

[@amorvitalis]

Yes! Nice video, also nice device. Done all 3 things

[@09591000]

Хорошо сделанная книжка. Спасибо. Thanks, good Book

[@anneto8226]

Great video and great device

[@peanutmans0]

Looks good hopefully

[@Randon_Tain]

Comment for the contest, though I also wish this device had image/comic viewing support as well as for ebooks and pdf files.

[@garagodik2145]

Nice Review

[@NetvoTV]

Giveaway of the Kobo Sage please, I want that!

[@ayushpandey2628]

Does Kindle Paperwhite support a third party Stylus for highlighting?

[@goodereader]

No, it doesnt

[@wmsdo9369]

Color e readers look great. I hope ratta moves into the market soon.

[@Netzuke01]

It looks like a nice device for PDFs.

[@speedysnailly]

done the necessary. thanks for having the giveaway! :)

[@Pasebe]

will there be a pro version of this with improved reoslution?

[@monstersquirrel96]

The bigger the better Big screen will be necessary when reading reference books and magazines, also great for comic book .

[@mjmanlapaz2661]

This looks really promising!

[@henriquesk3866]

That's a really great one!

[@alessandrorosati969]

I am a student, studying on pdf books. To read the pdf it is valid?

[@sharathkumar9876]

That is one nice looking device!

[@robert.i.turnbull]

I really want a colour e-ink!

[@iraboton9]

I'll wait for it
