The Xteink X4 Pro is an e-reader that has maintained its Prime Day price of $84.15, which is $25 less than its original listing. This compact device measures just 4.26 inches diagonally and boasts an 800 x 480 E Ink display, making it smaller and thinner than Amazon's smallest Kindle. It is currently available for $84.15 on Amazon, making it one of the most budget-friendly e-readers on the market.
The X4 Pro offers several improvements over its predecessors, including a touchscreen interface and a dedicated bottom button for returning to the home screen. It also features a built-in light with adjustable brightness and color temperature, allowing for comfortable reading even in low-light conditions. This model comes preloaded with CrossPoint Reader software, which significantly enhances the user experience compared to its earlier versions, despite not being as refined as Amazon's software.
A few users have expressed dissatisfaction with the switch from a USB-C port to a proprietary charging connector, but the device's inclusion of magnets enables it to securely attach to compatible smartphones, similar to its predecessors. Despite this minor drawback, the X4 Pro is lauded as the best tiny e-reader currently available, with one reviewer stating that they "won't leave the house without" it.
