But don't worry CNET's here to help.Īs of December 2012, CNET has several reader and tablet products we enthusiastically recommend. The market for those products has consolidated around a handful of major players: Amazon, Apple, Barnes & Noble, and Google are the leaders, with companies like Kobo, Samsung, and Sony - and a host of other Android tablet manufacturers - bringing up the rear.Ĭhoosing among those those categories of tablets and readers is the dilemma facing any shopper today, with key variables such as size, weight, screen type, and app "ecosystem" leading the shopping considerations. When we say "e-book readers," we're now really referring to four classes of products: black-and-white e-ink readers ($69 to $149) 7-inch color LCD media tablets ($150 to $300) midsize color LCD tablets ranging from 7.9 to 9 inches ($269 and up) and full-size color tablets like the iPad (mostly $400 and above). The even better news? Prices and features are better than ever. The good news is that the list of worthwhile choices is actually fairly short. Shopping for an e-book reader or a small tablet? At first glance, the task seems daunting - there are more choices than ever before.
