Long-term review: Still using the XTEink X4 e-reader months later
Toasted golden, schmeared with insight. Top of the rack.
Summary
Laura Michet shares a follow-up on her experience with the XTEink X4, a tiny credit-card-sized e-reader she acquired in late March. Several months later, she still uses it regularly, keeps it in her main bag, and has comfortably read numerous old mystery novels on it for a research project.
Key quotes
· 3 pulledIn late March, I wrote that I'd acquired a tiny, nearly credit-card-sized e-reader and had been regularly using it.
I still am! Several months later, it remains in the main bag I use when I leave the house, and I use it most days of the week.
I've since used it to read numerous old mystery novels (as research for a project) completely comfortably.
