Package contents and appearance of the backlit e-book Effire TR701
The effire company did not skimp on the production and preparation of the book for sale and filled the box with accessories to the maximum. When buying, in addition to the device itself, you will receive:
- E-book cover
- Computer sync cable
- Charging device
- about from the 220 V network
- Brief instructions
- Headphones
I would like to separately note the cover for the e-book. The book comes in 3 colors: Graphite with a brown cover, Black with black, and silver with a white cover. For testing, we chose a device with a black cover. The book cover is made of high-quality artificial leather, which surprisingly does not wear out with prolonged use. And the clasp on the end keeps the book closed when carrying.
The headphones included are standard, but the 3.5 Jack connector on the book will allow you to connect any others. The original charger included in the kit allows you to fully charge the device in 3-4 hours.
Externally, the effire 701 looks like a thin paper book. Weighing 370 grams, the book has small dimensions of 192x119x12. The weight, as it turned out, is not particularly felt even during long reading.
On the right side of the screen are all the main function keys: two page-turning buttons, an on/off button, and a Home button. The on/off button can be used to lock the screen (short press) or to completely turn off the book (long press). There are three more buttons on the end.
Volume buttons and a power button with all keys locked.
The front panel of the device is made of metal, the back is made of plastic. Plastic gets dirty and marks remain on it, but if you use the book in a case, this small drawback will not be noticeable.
E-book effire colorbook 701 characteristics:
The 7-inch screen is resistive. People who are used to smartphones without styluses are initially not accustomed to using such a screen. The resistive screen has been known for a long time and was widely used in all the first devices with a touch screen. The principle of its operation is based on microinsulators, which are located between the glass and the flexible membrane on top of the screen. When pressed, the glass and membrane touch and the controllers registering the change send information to the processor. Therefore, for correct operation of the screen, it is best to use a fingernail or buy a stylus.
Resistive screens are more reliable and resistant to contamination, and at a low cost this allows inexpensive e-books to be released onto the market.
The processor in the e-book operates at a frequency of 400 MHz, which is quite enough for reading, music and playing some videos.
The 4GB memory on the device is enough for several thousand books, and if you want to expand it, there is a slot for Micro SD memory cards. In fact, you will only need to increase the memory if you plan to not only read, but also play multimedia.
E-book formats
The backlit e-book turned out to be omnivorous. The book opened all book formats that we know of without problems: EPUB, FB2, TXT, PDF, PDB, HTML, RTF, DJVU. In addition, the book also coped with multimedia files of the following formats: MP3, WAV, WMA, FLAC, OGG, APE, AAC, AVI, MPEG4, WMV, MKV, ASF, H.264, MOV, RM, RMVB, FLV, DAT. And if you did not have time to download multimedia before the trip, you can use the built-in radio.
Additional features of the book:
Since we are talking about the radio, it is worth noting that the book has three more built-in games. The games for the e-book turned out to be the simplest: Lines, Tetris and Boxes. The book also has a built-in voice recorder, a Russian-English dictionary and a calculator.
E-book operating time
The book showed quite positive results. The operating time of the e-book with active use is 6-7 hours. Well, if you reduce the brightness of the backlight, the indicators will improve significantly.
Conclusions
To sum up all of the above, the backlit e-book effire colorbook 701 will be a great companion in the vast unknown world of books. Having bought an e-book, you will be able to store your entire library in one place. At any time, you can stop reading a boring book and switch to another.
