Love to read a lot, but you don’t have much free time? But we always have the opportunity to look into the book: in public transport, at lunchtime or in traffic. This is even more convenient if it is not about bulky books in paper execution, but about compact, convenient and multifunctional devices called electronic books. Firstly, they are affordable, secondly, they save raw materials for the production of real books, and thirdly, they allow you to work with a huge number of works due to the large amount of memory.
Pocketbook has long been famous for producing affordable, but high-quality e-books that you can take with you both to work and on a long journey.
One of these books, allowing you to read a lot and with comfort, is PocketBook 614 (reviews about it are mostly good, since the model is made really high-quality and is offered at an affordable price). We’ll talk about this in this article: we will carry out a small characteristic of the device, analyze the main details of its functionality, and identify the advantages and disadvantages.
Book design
So, we will start, perhaps, with design. The e-book is made in a nice matte plastic, which is available to the buyer in two color themes - light and dark. It is in this form that the edging of the screen on the device will be provided. It is noteworthy that the back cover in both cases is offered in a dark design (obviously, this is dictated by considerations of practicality, so that it does not overwrite).
About the light variation PocketBook basic 614 user reviews mark the gray display as visually darker due to the fact that it is surrounded by a light panel, which creates contrast. In the event that it will cause inconvenience to someone, we recommend that you pay attention to the dark version - in it the screen of the book will appear lighter and resemble the texture of the paper.
The device of the 614 model does not imply the presence of any additional lighting modules , backlight, or similar extensions. On the one hand, this is a drawback that excludes the possibility of working with a book in the dark. On the other hand, on the contrary, the device is offered in a simplified version, which means its cost is lower. At the same time, an additional light source module can be purchased separately at any electronics store. They are offered as accessories for readers.
Control
Navigation through the books that the user reads is carried out according to the classical scheme. This is a circle located on the center console, as well as two buttons on the back of the device, which can also turn pages. The management in PocketBook basic 2 614 reviews emphasize its convenience and simplicity. In principle, both the elderly and young readers will cope with navigation in this book intuitively.
What do developers offer us?
So, what do developers offer us under this product? Firstly, this is an e-book, which is equipped with a 6-inch display and a fairly durable battery (about PocketBook 614 reviews note that the device can last with it for a month of active use). Secondly, it offers a memory of 3 GB, provided in the device itself, and up to 32 GB of those that can be added using a memory card.
Book use
In general, to operate this book, if you believe what they say about PocketBook 614 (gray) reviews, is quite convenient. The back of the case is made in a nice matte plastic, which lies well in the hand. On the front panel you can see glossy (albeit slightly easily soiled) material with a decorative character.
There is enough memory to download hundreds of books, and the long battery life helps you not to think about the constant recharging of the device and makes it truly autonomous and mobile.
As for the navigation features, then, as the PocketBook 614 reviews say, the back “petals” switch pages with a characteristic sound, which is why it is not always convenient to use them. At the same time, the ring located on the front part copes with all the tasks quite efficiently, so users prefer to use it.
Where could I buy?
There are several ways to purchase a device. The first and most convenient is, of course, the Internet. You can easily find many electronics stores on the web. Your task is to find customer reviews on the PocketBook 614 that indicate the price of the book and the portal where they purchased it. Next, you just need to compare the cost of the gadget in different online stores and choose where it is cheaper (of course, you need to pay attention to the reputation and reliability of the store itself).
In addition to ordering online, you can also purchase an e-book in real retail outlets. So, our largest domestic electronics networks will be able to offer you an adequate price and quality service, as well as the opportunity to hold the gadget in your own hands, touch it, try to work with it. This is obviously a significant advantage over online stores.
