2023. Amazon improves internet browser on Kindle e-readers



Amazon quietly introduced an improved internet browser for 10th and 11th-generation Kindle e-readers as part of the new 5.16.4 update. Although Amazon didn't officially announce the enhanced browser functionality, they did mention improvements made to Goodreads for better performance on E INK screens. Good e-Reader conducted various tests since Amazon didn't disclose specific details about the browser changes. Notably, the updated browser now loads websites faster, enhances text readability and allows users to interact with cookie-acceptance popups. Layouts and CSS issues on websites like Wikipedia have been resolved and users can now access email services like Google Mail. Amazon has also added new bookmarks for social media networks, including X.


2018. Arta Tech unveiles InkBook Lumos



Arta Tech has launched a new e-reading device, the InkBook Lumos. It has a six-inch capacitive touchscreen display with a resolution of 800×600 and 167 PPI. This is a basic e-reader, similar to the Kindle Basic. It utilizes a more affordable Dual-Core Cortex A9 processor instead of a Freescale, so performance may be a concern.
