How we compare ebook readers
We compare practical capabilities rather than awarding a universal winner: where the app runs, which files it opens, how it handles personal libraries, whether reading state can move between devices, and which workflows require a particular store or service. Each page links the official product documentation used for verification and carries a verification date so aging claims are visible.
