Best ereader for KOreader? (startrek.website)

I'm moving on from a Kindle Oasis and looking at the Boox Go 7 since Boox runs android, but wondering if there is a better option out there?

I have a Boox Go Color 7 and love it! The batter lasts for ever and an android e-ink tablet is wonderful. I haven't used KOreader on it, but I use it for comics/manga via Kahon (through F-droid) and use the default e-reader app for books.

Oh that's great to hear thanks. How is the contrast for regular black and white on the Color 7?

[-] ReticulatedPasta@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

It's great! I suspect the contrast as just as good as the non-color model. I don't have it in front of me, but IIRC you can also adjust the contrast settings to whatever you need.

Just curious about your Oasis, is the hardware dying on you or you don't like KOReader experience running on Kindle hardware?

Screen cracked! KO actually is pretty nice on Kindle, but the Oasis is also pretty slow so I'm also just kind of browsing the market to see what's out there.

RIP your Oasis. Good luck on a replacement. Please let us know what you eventually get and what you think of it.

Will do. The Go 7 looks like the best bet, I considered a used Oasis but I think native android is more appealing.
