![]() That also plays into the other strength of e-ink, which is its intrinsic contrast and low power consumption. An e-book reader is really a unique-ish use case for e-ink, and you don't need all that much computing power to process the graphics for that application due to the lack of animation. They don't do animation well you have to erase and redraw the screen (modern displays can do this to individual pixels) and it's a fairly slow process, much slower than a LCD or OLED. One thing I love about Apple Books is that it catalogues the pdf files by showing by their front covers, which is really nice when browsing.Į-ink displays are a pretty niche item. ![]() I would be just as happy to go with a Microsoft Surface next time, depending on price etc. So I can use either of those pcs for reading pdfs whenever it suits me. I also have a desktop pc which is running Win10, and a more recent Dell laptop pc with Win11, both which includes Adobe Reader for my pdfs. (If it wasn't for the nature of my work I would go for a 12.9' or even 16' iPad, but the iPad Mini is a good compromise for what I need). The iPad Mini is just right, and it also means I have all my Kindle novels and rpg pdfs wherever I am, so that's really great. I need a handy diary for work - my phone diary is too small, and a 10' tablet is a little too cumbersome for what I want, as I'm on my feet quite a lot. I do like the compact size of the iPad Mini, it's like walking around with a novel or diary. I would perhaps rather a bigger iPad for the pdfs, but I've gotten used to enlarging paragraphs, so it's no biggie. I use an Apple iPad Mini - the Books app for pdfs and the Kindle app for novels.
