Verse Pro Color | Super Thin and Compact 6" e-Reader | Color Screen E Ink Kaleido™ 3 – Eye-Safe and Glare-Free | Text-to-Speech & Bluetooth | Audiobooks | SMARTlight | IPX8 Waterproof

Finally got an open system ereader and I’m lovin it more than I expected. Main reasons I bought it, I won’t be locked in an ecosystem, I can customize it at no cost (no more jailbreaking) and it can read a lot of file types. - it’s slim and fits easily in my purse VERY customizable. - You can add your own wallpapers and change the power off wallpaper and boot wallpaper in Settings or just set it to the book cover of the one you’re currently reading. You can install fonts too. - Sideloading ebooks/audiobooks is as easy as 123. Drag and drop! But if you want you can also sync it with your Pocketbook app on your phone. The stock reader is great with the TTS, dictionary and all but if you love using Koreader like me, then you’d be delighted to know that installing it in this device is super easy too. No need to jailbreak. Again, drag and drop! - Superb reading experience. Text looks crisp and does not fade when you’re outside under direct sunlight. And with the Smartlight (aka warm light) and night mode feature, it’s perfect for reading in low light. - has Libby app so you can download/borrow books from libraries - has TTS feature which kinda turns your ebook into an audiobook. You can download a lot of voices (english in different accents and even foreign languages like french, dutch, spanish, german, chinese and so on) - From opening ebooks to turning pages, it’s fast. Faster than my two previous ereaders. - The book recommendations (aka Ads) on homescreen is enabled by default but you can turn it off in Settings under Personalization > Widget. - the usb-c port not only serves as a charging port but you can use it to plug in your usb-c earphones as well - Has a dedicated Music player. You can add songs and listen to them while you read. - there’s an option to set a passcode lock - Has bluetooth and wifi that is compatible with both 2.4 and 5ghz.

A great compact personal reader. Love being able to load my own books on to this from whatever source I choose. The color feature is nice too, especially for graphic novels. The screen refresh rate is a bit slow though.

Easily the best quality, privacy, and feature set, for a steal of a price. Incredibly light, battery efficient, boots/sleeps in seconds, easy on the eyes, and passable colors. NO accounts or online access is required. Pocketbook is headquartered in Switzerland and Ukraine, which may have better handling of privacy data than other countries. Per their privacy notice, it seems they only collect the bare minimum necessary, and only if you actually use their optional online services. Copying DRM-free ebooks is incredibly simple: connect to your computer via USB, and the Pocketbook shows up as an external drive. Copy any files/folders, then safe disconnect -- the Pocketbook will automatically detect new books. Pocketbook library can be browsed via folder structure too, if you prefer to organize that way. Connecting via USB also exposes the underlying Linux file system, for tinkerers. Online transfers can be done via optional Dropbox, PocketBook Cloud, or Pocketbook's email service. Using FTP via the browser is a private/account-free option. It has handled all EPUB, MOBI, PDF, and CBZ (comic) formats that I've tried so far with no issues. The Gallery function is also nice for viewing images and art. Even the browser is surprisingly capable, able to handle FTP and even YouTube. Videos are not very watchable due to low framerate, but it could work in an emergency. The only minor downside is that a Bluetooth audio device is necessary if you want to listen to music or audiobooks, but it's not a huge deal. I recommend buying a flip cover to improve protection and handling.

Amazing e-reader for those trying to avoid Kindle. The Libby integration update that just released December 2025 is super cool and a huge selling point. Screen is clear and easy on the eyes, perfect size for me. Bluetooth connected a remote for page turning from a distance.

Extremely slow, even worse is it will open something that you didn't press but waited 5-10 seconds for. So your now waiting 4-10 seconds for the drop down screen to wait 5-10 seconds to see if the home button to begin again to wait 5-10 seconds to open (maybe) the correct file. The cloud from the app never synchs and they don't warn you that the feature is advertised but not functioning. Only way is to get on the website on the machine and download, so lots of 4-10 seconds waits. Or just plug into the PC and drag and drop files. While writing this I had to drop the stars.

I am absolutely in love with my Pocketbook Pro Color. It is my 3rd book reader. I have had a Nook and a Kindle previously and I am an avid reader. If you are someone who prefers devices where you have control and that are truly ad free this hits. I have wanted a pocketbook and finally made the switch. Plus no one can take your purchased books away(for whatever reason they feel necessary). Works beautifully for this nerdy girl. Highly recommend!

I really wanted to like this PocketBook Verse Pro. The idea behind it is great — an e-ink reader that’s easier on the eyes, especially for kids, and closer to the feeling of reading a real book. That part is definitely appealing. However, the actual user experience was very disappointing. The device feels extremely slow and outdated. Page turns, menu navigation, opening files — everything takes several seconds, and the whole system constantly feels like it’s “thinking.” After being used to the speed and smoothness of modern devices like iPhones and MacBooks, using this reader feels like stepping back into the early 2000s. The display quality is also not impressive. Colors look muted, and overall the content appears washed out. For me, the slow response time completely breaks the reading experience. It’s just not enjoyable to use, so I ended up returning it. Pros: • Eye-friendly e-ink screen • Nice idea for kids who shouldn’t stare at tablets Cons: • Very slow performance • Outdated interface and overall feel • Display quality is mediocre • Not pleasant to use compared to modern devices

I found this color e-reader interesting mainly because it was unusual to see e-ink in a color version. That alone made it stand out to me, and I was genuinely curious to try it. The device itself left a positive first impression, and I liked the idea of having a color e-reader instead of the usual black-and-white one. That said, after using it, I realized that I personally still prefer a regular monochrome e-reader for most reading. The color was nice to have in theory, but in practice I felt that it was not enough to make a big difference for me. Maybe I just got used to traditional e-ink, but since I do not read comics, I did not find a strong advantage in the color display for my own use. I have also ordered devices from other brands before, and my conclusion is the same: for comic books, I still feel that a normal tablet with an OLED screen is the better option. It gives a much more vivid and satisfying color experience, which matters a lot more for that type of content. Because of that, I would not recommend this technology as a great solution for comics. To be clear, this is not a criticism of the brand or the specific model itself. My opinion is about the color e-ink technology in general. It is an interesting concept and a nice step forward, but for my needs it does not fully replace either a traditional e-reader or a tablet

Uzun süreli araştırmalarım sonucunda bu markada karar kıldım. Eğer ben farklı formatlar kullanmıyorum, sadece cihazın sağladığı kitaplar, mangalar benim için yeterli diyorsanız BU ÜRÜNÜ ALMAYIN. Ancak, farklı formatlarda dokümanları farklı kanallardan edinip tek bir çatı altında toplayabilmek istiyorsanız, bu ürün tam SİZE göre. Kendi içinde çok fazla seçenek yok, ancak az önce söylediğim gibi ben zaten arşiv biriktiriyordum. Dropbox ile kullanım oldukça kolay ve konforlu. Bilgisayarınızdan dropboxa yüklediğinizde 30 saniyeden kısa süre içinde 100 ekitap eşzamanlandı. Arayüz kolay, dokunmatiğin yanında tuş olması benim için çok daha kullanışlı. Renkli özelliği de olduğu için manga okumak çok keyifli. Herhangi bir görüntü kaybı yaşanmıyor

Me ha fascinado el lector, es del tamaño que esperaba, pequeño, de bolsillo justo para viajar. Es muy fácil pasar libros desde la aplicación Calibre. Había leído varios comentarios que no les gustaba que el lector no es completamente blanco, esto es así, para mí no es un problema es como leer en periódico con ese tono grisáceo y es un gran descanso para mi vista. También trae pequeños juegos un ajedrez, sudoku y solitario, el concepto es divertido, los he explorado poco, realmente disfruto de la lectura en este dispositivo y esto otro gran acierto bastante enfocado en lectura sin mayores distracciones.

Para mí la mejor inversión del año. Calidad precio inmejorable. Se ve perfecto, lo he comparado con kobos de familiares a color y no tiene nada que envidiarles. Tiene una pantalla de 6 pulgadas, con Smart light. En algunos comentarios se quejan de como se ve la pantalla, pero en mi caso no tengo queja alguna, se ve perfectamente la pantalla carga sin problemas y de forma rápida. Acepta muchísimos formatos de texto, imágenes (yo pasé algunas del ordenador para poner la imagen que quería de fondo de pantalla) y audio libros. 1GB de RAM y 16 GB de almacenamiento interno, algo que en mi caso tuvo mucho que ver a la hora de elegir este e-reader, ya que no cuentan muchos con esta característica. La batería es de 2100 mAh, con autonomía de un mes, cosa que corroboro, le he dado mucha matraca desde que lo compré y sin duda aún me sorprende lo mucho que aguanta la batería. El diseño es sencillo, ya que es todo negro, me gusta por qué no pesa mucho, algo a tener en cuenta a la hora de leer y sobretodo de transportar. Tiene 4 botones abajo, para apagar/encender, pasar página... Además de su pantalla táctil. Es resistente al agua, ya que se puede sumergir hasta 1'5 metros durante 30 minutos. En mi caso no lo he puesto a prueba, pero si lo he llevado a la playa y lo he lavado con un trapo húmedo y no he tenido problemas, aunque está bien saberlo por si tienes algún accidente leyendo en la bañera, playa, etc. Después de toda la información proporcionada, os aseguro que repetiría, para mí ha sido el mejor e-reader del mercado, ya que almenos en mi caso en oferta por 160€, tengo un e-reader con muy buenas características, una pantalla que se ve perfecta y encima a color, cuando los de otra marca te salen en mi opinión bastante caros para las funciones que ofrecen y más comparándolo con este. Y para l@s que os gusta subrayar a la hora de leer, tranquilos que tenéis esa opción, con diferentes colores y luego además de en la propia lectura, lo encontrareis todo almacenado en notas. Espero que sirva de ayuda y más gente se sume al PocketBook!!!

Fajny mały czytnik, w celu dodania empik go i legimi wystarczy napisać do supportu legimi prośbę o dodanie wsparcia dla urządzenia

Ich bin begeistert vom Pocketbook Verse Pro Color. Dieses kleine Kraftpaket hat sich in kürzester Zeit zu meinem liebsten Lesebegleiter entwickelt. Besonders hervorheben möchte ich das fantastische Farbdisplay. Endlich kommen Cover, Illustrationen und sogar Comics auf einem E-Reader richtig zur Geltung. Die Farben sind angenehm und nicht zu grell, sodass das Lesen weiterhin augenschonend bleibt. Ein echter Genuss! Ein weiteres unschlagbares Feature ist die nahtlose Integration der Onleihe. Bücher direkt über das Gerät auszuleihen und zu lesen funktioniert reibungslos und ist unglaublich praktisch. Kein lästiges Übertragen von Dateien mehr – einfach stöbern, ausleihen und loslesen! Das handliche Format des Pocketbook Verse Pro Color ist perfekt für unterwegs. Es passt problemlos in jede Tasche und ist dabei angenehm leicht. So habe ich meine Lieblingsbücher immer dabei, egal ob in der Bahn, im Café oder im Urlaub. Die Synchronisation zwischen zwei Geräten funktioniert ebenfalls einwandfrei. Ich kann auf meinem größeren E-Reader zu Hause beginnen und unterwegs nahtlos auf dem Verse Pro Color weiterlesen, ohne die Seite zu verlieren. Das ist unglaublich komfortabel und spart Zeit. Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass der Pocketbook Verse Pro Color ein rundum gelungenes Gerät ist, das mit seinem Farbdisplay, der einfachen Onleihe-Nutzung, dem praktischen Format und der reibungslosen Synchronisation absolut überzeugt. Auch der Akku hält für so ein kleines Gerät sehr lange. Eine klare Kaufempfehlung für alle Leseratten!
