Performance

Travelling light means paring down your essentials – so unless you want to start tearing out the boring chapters from your books, it’s worth giving an e-book reader a go. BeBook have stolen the thunder from larger operators by delivering an e-book that accepts almost any file type, meaning you get a wider choice of titles – and loads more for free. It gives you around 7000 page turns from a single 3-hour charge and can happily store several hundred titles in the memory. The 6” screen works even in bright sunlight.

Verdict

If you cant wait for the UK market to explode with the larger competition, this is a good start. But at nearly £250, are you going to take the risk this early?
