Amazon ebook bestellen

Wie 'online winkelen' zegt, zegt Amazon. De e-commerce gigant is in niet meer weg te denken uit ons bestaan. De populariteit van de webshop is dan ook niet ver te zoeken. De webwinkel heeft het grootste productaanbod van het hele internet. Voorlopig is er nog geen website Amazon. En dat zonder leveringskosten! Wij raden Belgische klanten aan om te winkelen op Amazon. Deze pagina heeft veruit het grootste product aanbod, en is vaak ook het scherpst geprijsd. Bovendien is de pagina Nederlandstalig.

Toegegeven, we denken dat de kwaliteit van de vertaling soms wat wat beter kan. The eReader is designed to be a direct competitor to a highly successful Amazon alternative, Kindle Paperwhite.

The front of the e-reader features a sharp six-inch touch screen that offers a pixels per inch resolution. At the back, Kobo Clara HD has a unique textured grip that feels nice in the hand and improves grip and comfort allowing you to hold it with your fingertips. The eReader is very comfortable to hold over long periods of time due to its ergonomic and lightweight design.

Despite being a budget eReader, it features an impressive three to four weeks of battery capacity given an hour a day usage. The smart technology allows you to adjust the color warmth setting to suit your liking and environment. You can pick a color tone between a standard blue and a softer yellow backlight. In addition, the backlight can dynamically change color based on the time of day and the amount of light available.

Borrowing eBooks from your local library has also been made easier with the Overdrive integration. You can see the contents of the eBook library on your device so you are able to borrow most books from your reading lists by virtually downloading them. Kobo Clara HD is the lightest eReader in our review.

Despite being a value eReader, it comes with all the important features. The adaptive LCD screen backlight is smart and can automatically adjust the display color temperature based on the environment to ensure the least amount of strain is put on your eyes.

Unlike its older sibling — Nook GlowLight Plus, the new version looks and feels basic, which actually happens to play to its advantage. It does not have an aluminum body, glass screen or water resistance rating, but comes with a stunning level of practicality for indoor reading. The screen features a PPI resolution providing a crisp display with a real paperback book feel.

The touch screen is complemented by an advanced backlight system which has 7 white and 6 yellow LED lights. LEDs allow the e-reader to change the tone from cool white to warm orange in order to make your night reading experience more pleasant. The tone adjustment can be done manually or you could let the eReader seamlessly adjust it for you. It does not have an ambient light sensor to control the tone level, as it uses the timezones and time of the day instead. The thick bezel has actually allowed the placement of two physical page-turning buttons on each side.

Tapping the buttons flips the pages forward or backward, whereas double tapping flips the whole chapter. We have actually liked those buttons so much, that despite it being such a simple feature — it made all the difference for us. On the down side, the PDF reading experience is mediocre and inconsistent.

The e-reader takes too long to respond to zoom commands or sometimes does not even register them. If you are planning to extensively use PDF files, there are better options from Kobo to choose from. Overall, the rubbery coating, lightweight design and thick bezel with physical buttons have created an exceptional level of comfort and ergonomics. It feels easy and comfortable to use, especially at night. The comfort light feature is the icing on the cake, which makes the Nook Glowlight 3 one of the best value eBook readers for home use we have ever reviewed.

Kobo Forma is a premium reader that was specifically designed for ravenous booklovers who spend more time reading eBooks than others. The asymmetrical design, similar to Kindle Oasis, puts page-turn buttons on the right side of the device.

Kobo eReaders are known for being innovative as they were the first to make eReaders waterproof, pioneered the backlight color temperature adjustment system, and support almost all eBook formats you can think of. The result is an impressive pixel density with the best screen size and weight ratio we have seen in eBook readers.

The display uses both Carta HD and Mobius technology which is not common. Utilizing both technologies allowed the eReader to deliver extremely crisp image quality, yet remain lightweight at grams and thin at 0. Most eReaders allow users to control the text format by using presets that change line spacing, font sizes, and margins. This time, Kobo takes the text format customization to a whole new level as each parameter can be fine-tuned using individual sliders.

In addition, the CBR and CBZ file format support is great and allows manga, graphic novels, and comic books to be displayed cleanly and well-formatted. Lastly, the oversized eReader features a unique Overdrive integration and Pocket support. It allows users to browse local public libraries and make them available on the eReader.

Pocket, however, allows website and blog content to be pushed onto the eReader. Kobo Forma has all the features you can expect a premium eReader to have. It is waterproof, extremely light, has an amazingly clear display and allows you to customize the settings to get the best reading experience like no other eReader on the market.

If you consume lots of graphic content, read in low or no light conditions, Kobo Forma is the reader to buy. It does come with a hefty price tag, but for some of us, it will be worth every penny. Based on the basic Kindle, Amazon Kindle Kids Edition provides a safe and distraction-free reading environment for your little bookworms. It features a 6-inch screen with PPI and weighs about 10 ounces — the perfect dimension for kids to tote around. The parental pin allows you to set age filters, daily reading goals, and add media for your children.

You can also use the pin to access the standard Kindle software and adult content. The battery lasts about 4 hours on a single charge. It also includes a headphone port that allows your kids to read and listen audiobooks purchased separately at the same time. Alternatively, you can wirelessly connect Bluetooth headphones for even more comfortable listening experience. The downside is, Kindle Kids Edition, just like the basic Kindle has a mediocre screen resolution compared to the other Kindle products.

Although it is not very fast, it is one of the best e-readers to get your children interested in reading. With a flat-front e-ink PPI screen, it delivers sharp and crisps texts that rival the mid-range Kindle.

The BOOX Max3 is ideal for students as it provides a wide range of features for studying, such as sketching tools and full-page translation for foreign language books. In addition to a stylus that makes it easy to take hand notes, there are other tools that take it a step further, such as an AI-based handwriting recognition function and annotation features. Besides that, it offers tons of customization options to personalize your reading experience, like font sizes, brushing through text, and searching for a specific word in an eBook.

You can read pretty much any text format on the market with this device. The device is based on the Android operating system which comes with Google Play Store integration and multiple apps. For reading proprietary formats and other things that the Max3 cannot do out of the box, you can browse the app store library for solutions.

It features crisp texts, an impressive number of personalization options for reading, and robust note-taking tools. Although it can be temperamental to use, its long list of useful features and connectivity options make it one of the top reading tablets for students. If you enjoy ebook reading, chances are you would like to have your library organized and have it with you on the go.

If you do, there are a couple of options to consider for your digital library. There are both public libraries and paid ones and picking one may dictate your device choice. Although some may question the eReader practicality and debate about eReader vs tablet thinking that if you have the former, you do not need the latter.

Others may even convince you to go back to your favorite paper book. We believe the two devices have been intentionally designed for two different purposes and should not be compared as equivalents. There are multiple reasons that make modern eReaders a better reading choice:. Overall, if it is reading you are after, no tablet can really beat an eBook reader and we can help you pick the top eReader of For more details, see below:.

Alternatively, you can always opt for ebook reader apps such as a Kindle app or others compatible with your mobile device, iPad or a tablet. They provide the most cost-effective solution to e-reading but deliver the least impressive experience of all. There are a number of factors you would need to consider before shortlisting your top picks and ultimately buying an eReader that fits your needs.

Below I have listed some handy tips for you to consider. In terms of the type — basic e-readers use monochrome, E Ink technology screens to display text, and some basic graphics. However, most eBook readers these days include edge lighting that helps you see in the dark.

Also, most models, allow you to vary the intensity of the brightness from being quite dimmed to flashlight-bright. In case you are someone who likes reading outside, then sun glare and water exposure may not make it easy for you. If you are an outdoor book lover reading out on a sunny day, then having a screen that is glare resistant is not only a better option but a must. If on top of that you like reading on the beach or next to a pool, then some level of water resistance would be highly recommended.

Most modern eReaders come with Wi-Fi and some even with cellular internet support. Not a very useful feature for people who never run out of books to read while on the move. The downside of eBooks is that there are multiple different formats as there is no universally agreed format amongst the publishers yet. There are also free or open formats such as ePub.

You may know, but Google, for example, offers over a million books in that format without asking for anything in return. This is great, but if you are a Kindle user — ePub is not supported as Amazon only allows books from the Amazon ecosystem to be used. There are ways around it by using a third-party application, yet natively the ePub support does not come with Kindles. In terms of eBook volume, Amazon has a superior eBook selection but you should also compare the prices to ensure you are getting a good deal as they vary between the stores.

If you are planning to read books on multiple devices, such as your phone or tablet, then you need to ensure that there is an e-book reader app available for your device. Unlike tablets and mobile devices, eReaders can last for weeks. Typically modern eBook readers can last between four and eight weeks. If you are doing a lot of travel, this factor may be important to consider.

At the same time, you can always opt for a capable power bank to be safe. If you are looking for the best budget e-book reader you might be pleasantly surprised as the prices for eReaders have recently fallen. As most of the time, the price point is driven by the features available, so you need to make sure that you are not buying an eReader that has some cool features that you will never use.

Where is the power button located and can you press it using one hand? How does the lock screen work, is it secure, and many others. But most of them are secondary and should not greatly impact your purchasing decision.

There are many different file types but most eBook readers would not support all of them. Although EPUB format is not natively supported, you can convert it to a supported file type. At the same time, the process is cumbersome, and it breaks Digital Rights Management. Lastly, Apple iBooks are not supported. The format is supported widely by most ebook readers except Amazon Kindle Paperwhite and other Amazon Kindles.

Some models have a more paper books feel than others, but in general, it is as close to a paper book as screen can get. Most manufacturers use E Ink technology screen type technology that delivers a consistent reading performance even under direct sunlight. Yes, but before you can read your e-books on your laptop or PC, you need to have an application installed first.

No, you can not as e-books are usually subject to a single user license. You can share the eBook between your own devices however. The short answer is — most of the time you do not need any. This is due to modern devices being capable of storing thousands of books with their internal storage. In addition, most major vendors offer cloud storage. It allows you to download books to your device whenever you need them, in which case a connection to a Wi-Fi hotspot is required. To me the various ways one can adjust fonts, margins and the like within the kobo firmware without the need for Calibre etc… and the superior screen size and display of the Kobo Aura One mean Kobo has got the basic core fundementals down while Amazon does not and focuses on extraneous sophisticated extras.

The Kobo aura One hardware is technically superior overall and so is the core reading experience. I can buy and read books for use with my Kobo from all book stores including Amazon. Also, I am no lawyer but stripping DRM on your ebooks does not seem to illegal, at least not here in New York, as long as you do not distribute them for piracy see here :. I can export annotations from my Kobo using various methods but none of them are as simple as emailing them to myself from an Oasis.

Yeah, of course this means you have to have access to a PC or laptop to take full advantage of the Kobo and it is more time consuming but I find since it has 8 gigabytes of memory if I sit down one weekend and load everything on my ereader , with forethought, then it is not a constant hassle to use.

That is called being smart and using the executive function of the frontal lobe of my brain instead of being impulsive. For on the fly impulsive online news stuff or articles there is always the pocket function for Kobo, though. Amazon focuses on sophisticated features while never perfecting the core reading experience putting the cart before the horse 2.

It tries to lock you into their ecosystem having less flexible support for ebook formats no epub support?! It is and this is not acceptable. Kobo aura one is truly the choice for booklover as I see things like audible as stuff for illiterates and people dipping their toe into being the literati but not committed to dipping their toe all the way in. Thanks for your elaborate comment, I truly believe our readers will find it useful.

At the same time, I think that the ecosystem should be included in the overall score as it also contributes to the user experience a great deal. I found that if using the ecosystem results in a frustrating or incomplete behavior, it can put off people like me and others from using the device all up. To give you a real-life example from a different niche — I was choosing mobile phones for myself years ago. With the ecosystem being in the mix, I would pick Kindle Oasis. Neither are perfect in my view, yet I hope you can see my point.

Thanks again for the loads of useful information you have to share with our readers! I wholeheartedly agree. I want the Kobo Aura One for the reading experience. I had a Kindle and a Nook and the one thing that frustrated me most was not being able to manipulate the text where I could be comfortable reading it. Both Kindle and Nook have limited options. The newest Kindles have a little more than before but clearly not as much nor as varied as KA1.

One could say there are no options to change font size or style when reading g a real book and you survived. True, but it is an entirely different experience when reading a physical book.
