Bookeen Note

Disappointing for a 400 euro reader!

Thanks to LDLC for removing my previous review. I was able to resolve some issues.

I was able to fix some problems. The screen which is quite big tends to crack when you hold it by the edges. The backlighting is average compared to my old Kobo Aura One.

For the Google certification, it takes up to 48 hours to get it and connect to Google Play. But Booken says 10 minutes to 2 hours...hence the annoyance when it doesn't work. The procedure is therefore quite long.

Before the certification, I could only connect to my mobile in connection sharing. As soon as I was certified I could connect to my livebox. It's a weird bug that Booken might have to fix.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to use it, but I'm sure I'll be able to use it again in the future. For example, you can't see the covers of the books, nor the summary. The fonts are not well managed; if you do not keep the default font of the editor, the justification is done in an unpleasant way by adding 5 or 6 spaces after the apostrophes.

Google Play turns out to be a gimmick because the reader is not powerful enough to run applications smoothly. Aldico works well. I tried Google's Jamboard app...too slow. You have to forget about it.

I'm just giving this e-reader an average because on paper it's excellent, especially Google Play. In practice, Google Play will only be used to download an ebook reader and a comic book reader.

Perfect

Very good product! I use it every day at work!

Very good product - For effective note taking

I have been a customer of LDLC for several years. This company is serious and attentive to its customers. I am very pleased with the service I received from LDLC. The product I ordered met my expectations and after my order was delivered extremely fast and without any problems.
I recommend this product and once again I trust LDLC.

A massacre

I don't have a comparison for this kind of product. I've always wanted a e-reader, but I found the features limited and the price off-putting.
Thanks to Bookeen, I found my happiness. Yes, the price is high, but it is well worth it. I now have a quality e-reader, both for my freely downloaded ebooks, or my pdf books, and for the books I had already bought on Kindle and Kobo; and all this on the same e-reader, thanks to the android system!
Moreover, this e-reader is also a totally reliable production tool. It's simple, I use it at work, and it allows me to be better organised and to develop tools that are essential to my profession.
It's not perfect either, because I would have liked to have the conversion of handwritten texts into typed texts, in a native way. So I bought the Nebo app, and although it works perfectly when you use the app from start to finish, you run into difficulties if you have created the template files yourself, not generated in Nebo. Moreover, Nebo offers colour tools that are of no use to us as the Bookeen is in black and white.
To sum up, a decent and reliable production tool (and I haven't tested all the features yet; it's really very complete). It's a really badass book and manga reader. So I recommend it! If you have any doubts, you can easily find tests on the net, much more complete than my review, where you can get a much better idea of this product.

I received my order very quickly, less than 48 hours after ordering.
The product was as I expected.

good product

Good product, no bugs found after 5 weeks of use.
Used with the android news app ePresse which runs well on it.
It won't be as responsive as a regular android tablet, but the benefit is the comfort of reading in the evening or reading pdf's. The screen is large and very relaxing.
I'm not a big user of the pen, but I agree that it works well and that I could use it in other ways. But my notebook is good enough for me.
