  "account": "On October 13, Amazon marked the Xteink X4 Pro e-reader as having its lowest-ever price at $84.15, a $14.85 discount from its full price of $99. The ultra-compact e-reader, released in July, is an excellent time to purchase the device, which has received a nice discount. However, this low price won't last long.\n\nThe Xteink X4 Pro is incredibly compact, making it easy to carry in a pocket. Weighing just 72g (2.5 oz) and featuring a slim 5.95mm profile, the device is lightweight and portable. Its 4.3-inch paper-feel display is designed to reduce screen glare and eye fatigue, making it comfortable for reading for extended periods. Additionally, the built-in magnetic back allows for easy attachment to a phone.\n\nDespite its small size, the Xteink X4 Pro offers features such as multi-level warm and cool front lights to suit reading preferences in different environments. However, the main drawback is its file support. The e-reader only supports DRM-free EPUB files, which are limited and mainly consist of public domain classics. While this limits the variety of books available, the Xteink X4 Pro remains a sleek and affordable option for those seeking a compact e-reader at a discount.",
  "summary": "As of Oct. 13, the Xteink X4 Pro e-reader is down to its lowest price yet at Amazon of $84.15, which is 15% off its list price of $99.",
