This Boox Palma review explains why this small, smartphone-sized Ebook Reader is perfect for travel, is palm and pocket-friendly, and has a seriously easy-to-read screen. Amazon seriously missed a trick here – the Kindle Pocket that never was – install the Kindle app and you're off.

Helped along by crisp visuals at over 300 dots per inch, as well as a warm or cool backlight and auto brightness and temperature features. A small Kindle alternative, it's great in bed (not like that), thanks to the fact it's super-comfortable to hold one-handed, and it's even good for kids.

Not quite perfect, the Boox Palma runs Android 11, which is an outdated version of Google's operating system. So, while it's great that it supports third-party apps, its security credentials could be better. If you're happy with that, though, and want an ePaper or E Ink E-Reader that fits in your pocket, the Boox Palma could be the best option around.
