“It's not without flaws—the stylus could be more responsive, and the operating system would benefit from a newer version of Android—but overall, it delivers everything the Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition ($279.99) offers, plus greater storage, broader file compatibility, and extra features for less money.”

“Sadly, its screen is its biggest downfall, offering a lackluster reading experience – a yellow hue affects displayed colors, the text lacks crispness and the ghosting is annoying.”
