The one I bought is NOS so in new condition. Comparable screen to the current Kindle version 8 2016, the cheapest Kindle model. Screen the same DPI. Neither has the back light. Kindle, being newer, has added features but the Sony handles Epub files which are the commonest ebook file format outside the USA and Kindle universe, and is one of the formats available in ebooks from Smashwords and Mobilereads. This reader does have both touchscreen and five hard switches for some tasks which many prefer. Once in a book there is no need to touch the screen to flip pages while reading. With the latest firmware update, still available, books are still available from the Kobo book store or they can be side loaded from a computer via the USB connection.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
This item is a pain to put books into, I have a Kindle and it is as simple as drag and drop. The software has several pop-ups that have to be closed when uploading a book that wants the user to sign up to buy books online from Kobo, which have bought out Sony! This reinforces the love of my Kindle. Maybe A Jail-break can make the Sony PRS-T2 more user friendly.
