Touch Lux 5: Smart light, solid technology
The best e-book readers
Format omnivore with convenient operation
The reader hardly faltered in the multi-day everyday test: the display shows texts very sharply and with high contrast, the menus are easily accessible and do not pose any puzzles. There is nothing to complain about in terms of general operation. As always with the Touch-Lux devices, the Lux 5 is equipped with both a touchscreen and four haptic buttons. With these you can open the home screen in a flash or leaf back and forth in a book. Also great: the reader can handle all common book formats and does not require a customer account or registration. The only downer: the operating system allows itself a short breather every now and then, but that doesn’t affect the smooth operation.
Availability and price of the eBook reader
The eBook reader Pocketbook Touch Lux 5 is now available from specialist retailers. The recommended retail price is 119 euros.
