“Pros: It’s an eReader featuring the full gamut of
capabilities – touch screen, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, web
browsing, RSS feeds and more
Cons: At 280g it’s quite heavy and the addition of wireless and
touch-screen functionality create some unwanted side effects

“There is currently only one other eBook reader on the market
that can match the functionality of the PocketBook 302, and that’s
Amazon’s Kindle. It’s certainly an impressive display of know-how
from what’s essentially a small and relatively unknown company from
Ukraine. We first came across Green Reader back in issue 88, where
we reviewed the PocketBook 301+ Comfort. It was received very well
(scoring an impressive four out of five), thanks to the quality of
the screen (second-generation E Ink Vizplex electronic paper), the
simple but very comfortable chassis design and the staggering
battery life it offers.”
