  • That’s step 2. - They want to get into reading.

    Step 1 is to do it the cheapest way possible. Which means either real books or on a device they already have.

    Then if they find they enjoy it they can/should start spending some money on hardware/software to enhance the experience.

    But there’s no reason for them to spend any money on tech until they know reading recreationally is for them.


  • When I use/d my phone for reading I always go high contrast - Black background and bright orange text.

    Whether LCD or OLED I find that color combo works great for legibility while keeping screen brightness low in the dark (to reduce eye strain) and not having to set brightness as high during the day outdoors (preventing the screen from eating the battery as quickly.)
