More and more people read books on their smartphones – Proexpansión Peru

The first e-book was released in 1998. Since then, the publishing industry has changed a lot. However, not everything is going as expected. For example, today, although tablets preferred by readers of digital books gadget, it is increasingly clear that the future of the publishing industry is not in e-readers but on smartphones.

The following indicators can give you a clear idea of ​​what is moving the market for electronic books:

• In 2012, 30% of buyers of e-books read the book in tablets. Today this figure has risen to 41%.
• In 2012, only 24% of buyers of e-books read books sometime in their smartphones. In 2014, this figure had already risen to 54%.
• Furthermore, in 2012, only 9% of buyers of e-books only read books on their smartphones. In 2015, this figure is already 14%.
• Meanwhile, the use of e-readers such as Kindles and Nooks is declining among buyers of e-books and has been reduced from 50% to 32%.

These indicators are already encouraging an adjustment plans publishers to design, promote and sell books companies. Screens, for starters, are smaller than those of the e-readers, but increasingly the differences are minor, especially since the launch of iPhone6 ​​and iPhone6 ​​+.

With regard to this aspect, analysts are very practical: for most of them, the best device for reading a book is precisely that which you have always with you. In the smartphone that surpasses all others. With a smartphone you can advance reading your book in line at the grocery store, while waiting for your appointment with the dentist and even on the go at the Metropolitan, without having to be carrying a larger device like a tablet or an e-reader .

However, what is still no consensus on whether people can provide the same kind of care and achieve the same level of concentration while reading a book with a smartphone compared to other e -readers or tablets or even printed books. For many, this is not possible mainly because of its very nature a smartphone predisposes us to be alert to news and messages, something that is not exactly what a person needs to read and assimilate the contents of a book in peace. Precisely for this it is that printed books are still in high demand and could not be displaced by any technological device.

A face to face with two “e-readers” – ElTiempo.com

The market for electronic books in Colombia is in the making. According to the Colombian Chamber of Information Technology and Telecommunications (CCIT), only 1.5 percent of the editorial content acquired are digital. In other countries, such as England, the percentage of acceptance of this format reaches 85 percent.

Users agree that reading through tablet screens or cell no it’s comfortable.
The average time for reading a TIME article on the web does not exceed five minutes in the best, reaches 12.

Therefore, the presence of electronic readers (e-readers) on the market is essential to boost digital content: they are devices that look like small tablets, but come to a technology called electronic ink. Through the same experience that offer paper books simulates

In the Colombian market and we find at least two families of these technological items. Papyre Grammata and the Amazon . Kindle

We could test two models: the 630 Papyre and Kindle Paperwhite
2014. In terms of design, the difference is noticeable: the Kindle has a thickness of 9 mm, against 9.5 Grammata device. However, for the reader of the Spanish company, Papyre comes with a case body and attached buttons to move your body and refresh the page.

The biggest differences are noticed when we turn on the two devices: the Papyre takes about 26 seconds versus almost 40 Kindle

But the image quality offered by the Amazon device is superior.. It follows that the cause of this phenomenon responds to device software because, on paper, both readers have 6-inch screen with resolution of 758 by 1024 pixels with E-ink technology Pearl. The sharpness of the letters in the Kindle is much higher

And the main weakness of Papyre lies in its software. It feels more rustic, complex to use, and your answer is slower. Kindle interface seems more friendly and the response of the touch screen is almost immediate

Another aspect to assess the levels of backlight. In the Kindle are up to 24 levels lighting against eight of Papyre.

Up to that point of the evaluation, the victory seems logical for the Amazon device. However, a factor tips the balance in favor of competitor reader. Papyre supports open source ePub format, the most popular in terms of offering a story in electronic content

The Amazon store

Suno of the main attractions is its Amazon e-book store. The same can be accessed from a section located on the Kindle. Has a catalog of 120,000 titles in Spanish and hope to have 150,000 at year end.
The average price of each book is between 7 and $ 9. One of the gaps in the store is the scarcity of children’s content

Kindle. Best picture

In this comparison, the Kindle He leads praise for its image quality. The battery life is extended for eight weeks. However, this device does not allow reading the format most used in electronic content: the ePub. The user is required to buy books in Amazon’s own format (AZW), in Mobipocket PRC or pdf. The cost of Paperwhite 2014 is raised to the Colombian market: it is achieved by 429,900 pesos. The basic model costs 269,000 pesos, but no backlight

Papyre. Cheaper, but slower

The Papyre 630 costs less than Kindle: about 300,000 pesos, and accepts a wider range of formats: TXT, PDF, EPUB, PDB, FB2, RTF, mobi, among other
should improve its ‘software’.. It is slower than the Kindle and less friendly, and the image quality is significantly lower. For details on its availability in Colombia, visit the grammata.co page.

Amazon Kindle has arrived to Colombia – El Universal – Colombia

The most compact way to read thousands of books is already in Colombia, it is Kindle and will be available in the official store of electronic reader in the free market and in stores Falabella, Ripley and Jumbo.

The tool that lets you download a book in a minute, you have Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite, this second, there will shine on the screen, but if adjustable light that will leave can read day and night, in addition to a battery that is measured in weeks.

“We are very excited about the arrival of e-readers Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite Colombian consumers through Falabella stores, Jumbo and Ripley and through the official store in MercadoLibre. In this way, we will give consumers a convenient way to enjoy the experience and the benefits of reading on a Kindle, “said Pedro Huerta, director of Kindle content for Latin America Amazon.

Huerta added you can access more than two million books and 110 thousand in Castilian, connecting with the Amazon Kindle store.

Kindle will have an average price of $ 269 thousand, while Kindle Paperwhite will be $ 429 thousand.
