When shopping for an eReader on the web, reading product summaries or user reviews just isn't enough. This is because these user reviews focus solely on one product. In addition to review articles, it is best to do additional research by also reading eReader comparison articles or by looking at an eReader comparison chart. This is going to enable you to view eReading devices side-by-side so you can compare similar features. This way when you spend $125 or more on an eReader, you know it was definitely the best device to fulfill your needs. Presented below is a list of features that you ought to compare before purchasing an eReader online. From experience, these are the features that will make a difference most over time. 5 Important eReader Qualities You should Compare Here are the five most important features that all eReaders have. These features you will want to compare from one eReader to the next to find the best device for your needs. 1. The Size of the eReader Size is going to consist of the dimensions and weight of the eReader. This should be important to you because you're going to want to hold the device in 1 (or two) hands. So the size is going to impact how comfortable it is to hold the device for long periods of time. The most significant variable will be the weight. Most eReaders weight will range anywhere from seven ounces (half a pound) to sixteen or more ounces (1+ lb). For me personally, 12 ounces is too heavy for extended reading sessions. The dimensions ought to be compared as well. The larger the eReader (height, width, depth), the tougher the device will be to hold in one hand - especially when you factor in weight. Also, don't forget to think about the size of the screen. The overall dimensions will impact how big, or how small, the screen is on the device. 2. Battery and Memory The battery life ought to play a part in your decision considering that it has an affect on just how long you are able to use your eReader device between charges. Battery lives vary; you'll seem them range from as little as a couple of hours to as long as 30 days. The memory of an eReader is going to determine how many books you'll be able to store on your device. eReaders will come with built-in memory ranging from 500 MB to as much as 4GB. This is the equivalent to storing 1,000 to 4,000 ebooks. Many devices allow you to increase the memory

Common files include: AZW, TXT, PDF, AA, AAX, EPUB, PDB, JPG, GIF, PNG, BMP and MP3. 4. Internet You'll want to decide if you want to be able to access the web or not. If you do, you will have to choose between a device with Wi-Fi only or Wi-Fi+3G. If you want wi-fi only, you'll need to be near a wireless connection like at your home or perhaps a cafe to access the net. Devices with wi-fi+3G will allow you to access the net from just about anywhere, much like your cellphone. 5. Features eReaders can include many features. Here are just a few: • You can lend ebooks from one device to another (identical) device. • Touch and/or color screen. • Build in bookmarking, Wikipedia and dictionaries. • Games • Some devices can read aloud to you. Deciding What eReader Features Matter Most It's very unlikely that you will find the "perfect" eReader. So to help pick one out, you'll want to decide what features matter most to you and go from there. For instance, you might determine that size is most important followed by a color screen then games and so on. You'll make your choice using that criteria. Then when you make your decision, just find a good deal, purchase your eReader and enjoy your favorite book.
