Hello.
Got my KA1 today. The first impression was mixed.
I have always been an ardent supporter of Kindle readers and I consider Voyage to be the best 6 "reader on the market. Almost all Kindle readers - Keyboard, DX, PW1, PW2 and Voyage have passed through my hands. By the way, they all still work fine. However, 6" always it was not enough - age, vision and reading speed - I wanted the reader a little more with backlight.
I took Pocketbook 840 half a year ago - the screen quality turned out to be unacceptable in contrast and in spots of illumination. The price is also not for children. And finally, KA1.
Pros:
- the size
- screen quality (much better than Pocketbook)
- operating system (any fonts and their settings and a lot of tweaks - for example, full-screen mode without margins above and below)
- the weight
Minuses:
- no paging buttons
- build quality is terrible - for example, unevenly glued screen
- body material (at the Pocketbook level and behind any Kindle)
- screen quality (worse than Voyage)
- only his native and not very common KEPUB understands well.
Everything is natural IMHO.
But the screen size and the acceptable quality of the backlight outweigh everything and I decided to make it the main reader. Configured and tweaked - full screen, deactivated synchronization, etc. etc. I uploaded books in EPUB format (I did not find how and how to convert it to KEPUB).
And he caught a glitch that casts doubt on my desire to leave KA1.
The problem is that all books loaded in it are shown with the right edge trimmed. As if cut off the last 2-3 letters.
I use Caliber and ask you not to offer a switch to another converter.
I can hardly cope with Caliber. Rather, I use it in fully automatic mode.
With books from the Kobo website everything is in order.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
