Over the last two years the eReader market has really heated up. Where the Kindle was the only serious choice, it is now joined by the Nook Simple Touch, Sony PRS-T1 and Kobo Touch. These later devices have really closed the gap and the Nook Simple Touch especially is giving the Kindle a real run for its money. However, having tested all the leading eReaders myself for my website, I can report that although the gap has definitely closed, the Kindle Touch is still the best ereader for me and here's why.
1) The Kindle Store
Anyone who has ever used Amazon will tell you how easy and intuitive it is to use and Amazon's Kindle store is no different. Whether you are searching for ebooks, looking for reviews, looking for special offers or just downloading an ebook, its simple navigation and layout make it a breeze. Simply the best out there and crucially the pricing is very competitive too.
2) It has a 3G model
The Kindle Touch (and the older Kindle keyboard) are the only eReaders out there at the moment that also have a 3G model. This is invaluable if like me you are always out and about. You don't need to worry about finding somewhere with Wi-Fi, you can just access the Kindle store, download books, surf the web and even access your social networks whenever and pretty much wherever you want.
3) Great Audio Functions
Unlike it's closest competitor - the Nook Simple Touch, the Kindle Touch has audio functionality. This means you can listen to audiobooks, download and listen to MP3s and of course use the cool text-to-speech feature. This allows the Kindle to read content out loud for you including summaries of magazines and newspapers.
4) Free Cloud Backup
This lets you backup your entire library of books, magazines or newspapers onto Amazon's Servers. This gives you complete piece of mind in case you lose or break your Kindle. You can then re-download for free wirelessly whenever you want.
5) X-Ray Feature
This feature allows you to really explore any book you are reading. Just tap and you can see all the passages of the book that mention particular topics or places of interest, historical figures, fictional characters or other ideas and then get more descriptive details from Wikipedia about it. It really adds to the experience of reading an ebook especially if you are reading a non-fiction book such as something from history or an autobiography.
