Kindle or iPad for reading?

[RealCrownHeights]

I have alot of books on Ibooks but If I'm on the go it's hard to read on the phone sometimes. Kindle is cheaper but I heard it's hard to convert and transfer from apple. Which is more convenient and makes sense?

Kindle - who wants to deal with glare, eye strain, and shytty visibility in high light tryin to read on an iPad? kindle is lighter, smaller, cheaper and better for reading, as someone who loves reading outside or by a window, no way in hell you can do that for hours comfortably with a ipad

It really depends on what you're reading. I prefer the Kindle and those variants for anything like a normal book, or with little in the way of pictures, long term stuff, etc.

For magazines, I absolutely will take a tablet like an iPad. I tried it on a Kindle and hated it.

... and in the additional functionality and its a no brainer.

negative....kindle with built in light >> big ass ipad.

if you want a tablet - get a tablet. if you want an e-reader - get an e-reader. they're cheap enough to have both, but reading books an ipad is a full fail

Naw I’m playin that’s the bookseller in me talkin shyt. I understand for space purposes why people go ebook. I personally love having physical copies more. Took me awhile to even get into audio but I’m an auditory learner by nature.

you'll likely have to convert them, but they should work. i've never done it since i just buy shyt from the kindle store, but looks like lots of articles online on converting ebook formats for kindle

I've been using this Moon Reader app on my phone and it works great. I'd give it a go before splasing money on another device.
