Sick of Colour E-Readers
Is anyone else fed up with manufacturers pushing colour e-readers while discontinuing B&W models?
It seems like more and more e-reader manufacturers are replacing black-and-white models with colour versions—despite knowing that the added colour layer worsens the B&W reading experience. It’s really frustrating.
Some examples:
- The Kobo Libra 2 was discontinued and replaced with the Kobo Libra Colour.
- The PocketBook Verse Pro Colour got upgraded specs and a new OS, while the B&W Verse Pro was left behind.
- And then there’s the Kindle Colorsoft yellow bar fiasco—a whole issue on its own.
Why are companies so eager to push colour displays while neglecting those of us who prefer a crisp, high-contrast B&W experience?
