July 28, 2020

PocketBook is excited to announce the launch of two long-awaited new products, which are capable of changing the view on the comfort of e-reading. Meet the PocketBook Color – Europe’s first color e-reader with E Ink Kaleido™ 6-inched screen, and the PocketBook Touch Lux 5 – the new generation of one of the world's most lightweight mainstream e-readers, now with SMARTlight technology.

PocketBook Color – the next page of e-reading is in color

The PocketBook Color introduces a brand-new level of e-reading – thanks to ePaper E Ink Print Color technology. Children's books with illustrations and comics, educational and professional literature are now more inspiring and informative on E Ink screen. The device is also equipped with Bluetooth and supports audio files.

Colors on E Ink screen

The new E Ink Kaleido™ screen can display 4096 colors while preserving all the unique properties of E Ink technology. In black and white mode, the screen has HD resolution with 300 dpi, which guarantees the sharp contrast of the e-page. The E Ink Kaleido™ screen offers optimal comfort and performance with the switched-on frontlight. Moreover, users can adjust color settings of each specific book, easily changing parameters such as contrast, brightness, gamma correction, and saturation.

Bluetooth and audio - everything for book listeners

The PocketBook Color supports 6 popular audio formats, which is good news for audiobook and music fans. With Bluetooth, it is possible to connect wireless headphones or listen to audiobooks through your car audio-system. The Text-to-Speech tool is another useful feature for voicing text files in one of 16 languages.

Reading pleasure “on the go”

Due to its compactness (161.3 × 108 × 8 mm) and lightness (only 160 g), the e-reader is ideal for those who cannot imagine their daily routine without reading. The device is conveniently sized to keep on hand, wherever you go: PocketBook Color fits easily in a school backpack, handbag, and even in a jacket pocket! Frontlight technology means you can read in any condition, regardless of lighting: in transport, in a cafe, and even in a tent, settling down for the night. The e-reader is comfortable to hold with one hand while simply turning the page with the touchscreen or the buttons on the front panel.

Create your library!

PocketBook Color also stands out with the support of 29 formats - 19 book, 6 audio, and 4 graphic formats. One of the world leaders in the number of formats; it provides readers the opportunity to download content without conversion. In addition, due to the internal storage of 16 GB and a memory card slot up to 32 GB, the e-reader can accommodate a truly huge electronic library.
