Pocketbook's Color e-reader is set to mark the start of a major shift to full colour screens on e-ink devices. — PocketBook/dpa
When it comes to screens, e-book readers are the last bastion of the monochrome display. But that's about to change with a burst of colour being injected into one new e-reader.
Pocketbook's Color e-reader, due for release in late 2020, will display up to 4096 colours in HD resolution on its 6in display – a major step up from previous readers, limited to displaying text and graphics in grayscale on a white background.
