Hi,
My Kindle won’t boot anymore and keeps getting stuck in boot screen, so I thought this might be a good time to get away from Amazon, even though that device was great.
So, what non-kindle readers would you recommend?
It should have color and background light and it shouldn’t be huge so I can keep it in the back pocket.
And, since I don’t have any experience outside the Amazon ecosystem: how is the experience of buying and transferring books to non Kindle readers?
Update: I did research based on your recommendations. Thanks for all the input, that was way more than I expected! I settled for the Kobo Clara Color since it seemed to almost perfectly match my needs and Kobo and the model itself got heavily recommended here and on the web.
To play devil’s advocate, is there any way you might be able to fix the Kindle? I’ve saved two for family members by swapping batteries and it’s not that hard if you have a spudger and decent set of screwdrivers.
It has been slow and doing weird stuff for years now. It’s first or second edition so it is quite old. I don’t know if a battery change will fix getting stuck in boot screen.
