Do you like it compact and colourful? Then the Tolino Shine Colour is the perfect e-book reader for you. When tested, we particularly liked its simple and intuitive use. However, the colour display does not come close to the quality of tablets, although this is due to the e-ink technology...

PCgo + PC MagazinSingle testReleaseAugust 2024

The Tolino Shine and the Shine Colour are successful e-readers with different strengths. The Tolino Shine impresses with its razor-sharp black and white display and is ideal for all bookworms and novel readers. The extra charge for the Tolino Shine Color is only worthwhile for readers who often look at books with colour graphics or illustrations, especially as the colour display is limited.
