Review: Nice size, perfectly customizable. - I've really been enjoying this e-reader. The size is convenient, especially for reading at night. It's extremely lightweight. The front light quality, though not warm, is easy on the eyes. It's fully adjustable, and the brightness can be scheduled automatically and by the hour. The ergonomic buttons are placed perfectly, at the bottom of the reader. It's possible to add an SD card to the reader, but I haven't yet done so. The menus and placement of them are customizable. There are widgets, including games, and I especially enjoy Sudoku. I'm currently reading a book I checked out via the included web browser, from my local library. It's also possible to load your books via USB or from the PocketBook cloud service. The battery in this reader doesn't last as long as it might on a more well-known reader, but I changed the setting on mine to keep it from shutting off. Even with it just sleeping, instead, it lasts for a good long time. This will be subjective, based on how long and how often each reader reads. The touch screen is responsive, and you can turn pages either that way or with the buttons. You can add notes and highlights. I recommend, because the reader feels so light, that you put a cover on it to protect it. It's a great reader, and I'm not giving up a thing by replacing my better-known reader with it. In fact, I'm losing the ads and gaining more features and convenience.
Review: This is a great basic e-reader - We wanted a basic e-reader without all of the additional stuff that a lot of them have. Didn't want Bluetooth, didn't want Internet, just wanted to read books. This one can work without ever being connected to the wifi and doesn't have any extra bells and whistles and that's exactly what we wanted, so it's great. Functionality is good, screen size is good, no backlight only front light is good, navigation is easy, battery life is good. We're all around pleased.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is this os?**
A: Platform (OS): Linux 3.0.35

**Q: Can I read Korean books with this device?**
A: Yes. 
Please note that unfortunately, the Korean language is not supported by the device and cannot be installed as the language of the user interface. You will need to install additional fonts to read Korean books on the device. 
Additional fonts are installed in TTF and OTF formats, and the TTC format from the SW version 6.4. To install, simply copy them to each of the following folders: system/fonts, and to system/adobe/fonts on the device’s internal memory. After adding the font, open the book and in the Settings select the font you have installed. 

IMPORTANT: These fonts can be applied only to text formats, such as: doc, docx, rtf, etc. 

IMPORTANT: If the device is connected to the PC and you cannot find the system folder, it is hidden.

To get access to this folder, follow the steps below:
1. Open the root folder of internal memory of the device with the help of the File Manager and select the Service Tab in the upper part of the File Manager (if it is not visible by default, press ALT to call the Service Menu) – choose Folder Specifications.
2. In the pop-up window select the View Tab (the second tab in succession).
3. Find and untick the checkbox next to the "Hide protected system files and folders" option and tick the checkbox next to the “Show hidden files and folders" option. Confirm your choice with YES and APPLY.

Attention! To get access to the hidden folders on the PocketBook device connected to a Windows 10 PC, proceed as follows:
1. Connect the device to the PC and double click to open it. 
2. Go to the View tab - click on Options and then on Change folder and search options.  
3. Folder options will pop up. Go to the View tab and then tick the checkbox next to the "Show hidden files, folders and drives" option. Also, untick the checkbox next to "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)" option. Confirm your choice with YES and APPLY.

**Q: Can the touch screen be temporarily disabled?**
A: It is possible to turn off the display while reading, but it is impossible to turn off the touchscreen completely, you cannot turn it off while surfing the web or changing settings.

To use this function, press and hold the Backward button while reading a book.
You can also set it to any other button, to do so select Settings - Personalize - Key Mapping - EPUB,FB2 and others - select the desired button, then go back and select PDF and DjVu - select the desired button.

Have a nice day!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A flawed but fine entry level eReader with lots of bells and whistles...
*by B***T on March 23, 2025*

So, I wanted a bare bones eEeader that I could use without connecting it to the internet or a particular service (like Kobo or Kindle). I already have a large collection of ePubs, more than I'll probably ever finish reading, so connecting to online stores is not a need for me. The Pocketbook is perfect in that respect. Once you get past the obligatory initial setup, all you have to do is connect it to your PC, drop and drag your ePubs onto the eReader's hardrive and off to the races you go. It's light. Comfortable to hold. Easy to use. It *is* a little quirky though... It says *Basic* but there are a lot of settings that can be adjusted, and some defaults that were perplexing to me. Like the long presses on page turning that moves the page 10 pages forward or back, by default. It actually irked me. This can be turned off though, so, no harm no foul. The build quality is fine, but the buttons feel cheap and misaligned when holding it at certain angles. Also, for the price I would expect a little more RAM installed to make the device zippier when looking through your library. As is, it functions ok but flickers and stutters book cover images to keep up. Reading ePubs is good enough. And though the RAM speed impedes loading of PDFs, they're mostly readable too. I primarily got this for my old ePubs and Mobi files though. As is, I feel like the Basic is a good value at a lower price point. It is an international eReader though, so many of the extra services (like library access) might not be available to you if that's what you're seeking. For those of us who already have a large ePub collection, that's not a con. Lack of RAM is though, given how inexpensive RAM is nowadays. Also, the 8 gigs provided on the device are eaten up by the OS. And there a lot of eBooks already loaded on the HD of classic work that you'll probably want to delete. Like older Kindles, this device is fragile, (they aren't kidding). So people who mindlessly toss their stuff around or choose to give this to a kid with grubby hands, or to their pets to chew on, should stay far away. A protective slip case should be your next purchase. There are many on the Zon that are cheap and do just fine. I like this device. It works perfectly for my needs. I like that adding an Ebook from my PC is a straight forward affair, just drag and drop. It'll probably last a long time if you are gentle with your things. 🙏✌️
