The E BOOK READER VS BOOKS




Firstly, a E-book reader is a electronic mobile device designed primarily for the purpose of reading digital e books and periodicals. 

E book and book are very similar, and sharing with one goals. To allow the reader to read a book. Both E book and book has their pros and cons, and I will talk about it here

The E BOOK is easily portable, the user can carry multiple books on one device, it is also easily readable, most e readers offer zoom function, letter re-sizing, note taking on e book reader is much easier and faster, the notes can also be found and referenced quickly and easily, and they don't have to be permanent, nevertheless, lighting conditions become meaningless as the reader has a great lighting system to allow reader to read whenever and wherever the reader like

On the other hand, the classic book is easily obtainable, as bookstores are everywhere, books are easily portable (not few books tho), and they are cheap and will not cause significant eye-strain.

The down side of e books are it could cause eye strain by long period reading in front of it, and it also need to use power.

The down side of book is, you could not carry 2 or 3 books in a same time, its damn HEAVY! you will also need light source to read them, it limits the location or the timing to read a book, and if you make notes in the book, it can never be erased.

To be frank, both ebook and book have their pros and cons, it is hard to choose one of them and stick to it. But the technology in the 21st century does helping human to have a better life style and improving our way to lives.
