XTEINK X3 Pocket eReader

I am reviewing it after 3 weeks since it arrived in my country of residence. I ordered it on October 4 and it arrived in Vienna, Austria on October 16 -- 12 days, which this is par for the course for shipments from China. I love it. I brought it everywhere because it is so portable and just perfect for my hand size. I read a a lot on this device that I am now my third book reading this device. Like all e-ink devices, it is fragile so I bought a folio that has a TPU case (but the magnet is not as strong as the one you can buy from Xteink). I am also a little wary about it getting scratched so I do not stick it on the back of my phone (my phone, the iphone 16e, does not have magsafe anyway). I also do not have a problem with the different charging port (pogo pins) -- in the grand scheme of things, this is truly a non-issue for me. My only con is that it does not have a backlight. But that's fine. I just bought a magnetic reading light for this. I was just in it for the size.

First time using an e-ink reader and I now understand why people like the e-ink displays and the use for reading. I’ve read a few books in the past on my iPads but this feels more natural. Plus with how small it is being interrupted is not bad due to how easy/quick you can pickup where you left off.

I absolutely love it. It’s such a niche product that I didn’t know I needed so much on my daily basis. Ive already been with it for 3/4 weeks and I am so happy. Best birthday gift I gave myself in a long time!
