"As an avid book lover, I'm a sucker for a great e-reader. Yet many of these devices are way too limited to really become a companion device. This is why I loved the TCL Nxtpaper tablet so much; however, the new DuRobo Krono is here to address that tablet's single downfall: it's a pocket e-reader and productivity device that is finally available for preorder."
"Admittedly, I am biased. I've been using a prototype of the DuRobo Krono for a couple of months, and it's done what no e-reader has before: it's the only one that has replaced my Kindle during travel. As an adult, I've never traveled without my Kindle because I like being able to read on the plane and before bed. Yet the DuRobo Krono is small and lightweight enough to make a compelling Kindle replacement, and its added features bring it over the top."
"Describing the DuRobo Krono as a simple e-reader is a major injustice. It's an e-paper Android tablet that works as a smartphone-sized productivity device. Its long battery life and Android-based OS make it more reliable than your average e-reader, without being as cumbersome or heavy as even a Kindle. "Krono was created for thinkers and creators who crave mental clarity," said a DuRoBo spokesperson."
DuRobo Krono is a smartphone-sized e-paper tablet running Android that emphasizes distraction-free reading, note-taking, and productivity. The device combines long battery life with a lightweight, pocketable form factor that can replace larger e-readers during travel. Android-based OS and open software aim to provide reliability and flexibility beyond typical e-readers while avoiding the bulk of devices like Kindle. Designed to support focused work, the device includes note-taking capabilities and intelligent assistance to help users reflect and create. The Krono followed a successful Kickstarter campaign and is now available for preorder, with shipping scheduled for the end of January.
