The Bigme B6 is a new, color e-reader that runs on Android, making it extremely versatile. Paired with a 2100 mAh battery and expandable storage up to 1 TB, it offers decent features for a competitive price.

Bigme has another e-reader, the B6, on offer for $139. The B6 comes with a color display, allowing for the display of comics and manga. However, the pixel density drops significantly when using color: While black and white content can be displayed at 300 PPI, color content can only be displayed at 150 PPI. The touchscreen measures 6 inches diagonally and touch input fields are located on the bottom of the display for various functions, such as switching between screens.

The 6.98-millimeter-thick e-reader weighs around 176 grams and houses an octa-core CPU. Combined with 4GB of RAM, this should provide sufficient power for Android 14 to function smoothly. Not to mention that additional apps can be installed via the Google Play Store and the range of functions expanded considerably, compared to other e-readers with limited or in-house operating systems.

64 GB of internal storage not only allows the installation of apps but also the storage of numerous books. This can be easily expanded via a memory card. Internet connectivity is provided by Wi-Fi in the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands, and Bluetooth is also supported. The panel's illumination can be adjusted not only in terms of brightness but also in terms of color temperature. A 2,100 mAh battery is installed.
