Ireader smart xs4/28/2023 ![]() Page turns are lightning quick, you can press down on the physical buttons or simply swipe and gesture. The default e-reading app is really good and since it supports a multitude of formats, can basically read anything you have stored on your computer. Instead it is very much like the Kindle Oasis. Once you unplug it, the titles should appear in your library.īasically, this device is a dedicated ebook reader, it does not have a WACOM screen and does not come with a stylus to take notes. You can sideload everything by plugging in the USB-C to USB-A cable to your PC and drag and dropping your ebooks to the root of the device. The device supports TXT, EPUB, PDF, MOBI, EBK2, EBK3, UMD, DOC, DOCX, DJVU, AZW3, PPT, PPTX, XLXS, and various other documents. ![]() Luckily, even with the entire UI and menu system in Chinese, it does support English ebooks. The only things that won’t be transcribed is the iReader bookstore, that is exclusively populated with Chinese titles and they magically won’t switch to English. The XS right now is all in Chinese, but the company said that in a few weeks they are going to release a firmware update that will change everything to English. You will want to sideload in your own apps and use the file manager to launch them. The iReader XS is running Android 8.1 and has a small app store, that primarily has Chinese apps, such as Wechat Reading. It retails for $319.99 and can be purchased from the Good e-Reader Store. I really like the overall hardware design of the XS, it really stands out in a crowded e-reader segment where everything is black and looks the same. The dimensions are are 177.2x161x4.3mm and weighs 210g, a bit heavier than the Kindle. It is powered by a 1800 mAh battery, whereas the Oasis has a 1100 mAH battery. I can hear the cheers now, instead of a Micro USB port, the iReader XS is employing USB-C, which is used for data transfer or charging. ![]() If you don’t want to use the speakers, the e-reader has Bluetooth 5.1, so you can pair a pair of wireless headphones or earbuds. There is a single speaker on the back that can play back TTS, but also sideloaded audiobooks, podcasts and music. It has two microphones for the AI assistant, which will read ebooks aloud. Underneath the hood is a octa core processor, 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. It actually has more LED lights than the Kindle Oasis, providing even light distribution. There is a front-lit display with a color temperature system, in total there is 28 white and amber LED lights, so you can read in the dark and get a nice warm light effect. Manual page turn buttons are also very compelling, almost every single brand has abandoned these, except for Pocketbook. The XS has the same asymmetrical design as the Kindle Oasis, complete with a small hump on the back, where most of the components are, such as the battery. The color scheme is black around the edges of the bezel and the rest of it is this really nice offset rose gold, where the page turn buttons are and the back. There are two physical page turn buttons on the side of the unit, they are positioned to the right of the screen. The screen is flush with the bezel and is protected by a layer of glass. The iReader XS features an 7.8 inch E INK Carta HD capacitive touchscreen display with a resolution of 1920×1440 with 300 PPI. Is this e-reader all its cracked up to be? There is English firmware that will be released soon, making it viable for people who want an Amazon alternative. It is also running the Google Android OS, which allows you to sideload in your own apps. How exactly is it better? It has a larger screen, better hardware and a bigger battery. The device features the same asymmetrical design and manual page turn buttons. All of this and more can be accomplished using the PhotoFast ONE APP available for iPhone or iPad.The iReader XS might just be the Kindle Oasis killer that we have been waiting for.
