Why I prefer using my e-readers without front light on (except with kaleido 3 e-readers)

[@baltgames1]

I totally agree with you. Without front light is much better and more relaxed. I think the biggest reason why people choose e-ink is because of this natural way of reading. If I have to use frontlight I have feeling that I am using LCD screen and I lose the point of having e-ink.

Exactly

[@KrzysztofG-f1v]

So colour e-ink displays are pretty much pointless?

[@svartling]

@krzysztofgoralski5964 yes unless you only read color manga or cartoons

[@KrzysztofG-f1v]

​@@svartlingsad, I was thinking of getting one for my kid and for me. I guess having 2 devices would be a solution then or just wait for colour technology to improve

@krzysztofgoralski5964 if you only read black and white content, then a black and white e-reader will always be best

Great video. When they started to introduce the front light on e-readers, I was afraid that they would do the settings like in some devices, where you can reduce the bright but you couldn't turn it off. Fortunately there are many e-reader brands where we can turn off the front light and read like you do it with standard book. We don't want e-readers to become tablets!😞

Totally agree
