Is one of the few eBook readers with a colour screen. However, colour saturation cannot keep up with LC or OLED displays. Patterns of colour pixels easily visible, even in black-and-white mode. Audio output via Bluetooth and USB jack adapter, memory expandable.

The PocketBook InkPad Color is a well-equipped reader with colour ambitions. However, you should not expect the splendour of a smartphone or tablet, because the colours appear rather pale. However, those who value dosed colour highlighting, for example in non-fiction books, will be well served by the colour e-paper in the PocketBook InkPad Color.
