Is the color screen good for reading novels?

It works, but text contrast is lower than on a black-and-white E Ink screen. Many readers prefer monochrome for long text and color for comics and magazines.

Can I install the Kindle app?

Yes. It runs Android, so you can install Kindle, Kobo, Libby and other reading apps from app stores.

Can I add more storage?

Yes. It has 32 GB built in and a microSD card slot for more.

Does it play audiobooks?

It supports audio playback, so audiobooks and text-to-speech work, though you may want headphones or a speaker.

Is a 6-inch screen big enough for PDFs?

It is tight. PDFs designed for larger pages need zooming and panning, so a bigger screen suits textbooks and comics better.

How does it compare with a Kindle Paperwhite?

The B6 adds color and Android app freedom. The Paperwhite offers sharper monochrome text, faster page turns and a more polished reading experience.

Our take on the Bigme B6 6 inch Color ebook reader 2+32GB

The Bigme B6 is a 6-inch e-reader with a color E Ink screen, 32 GB of storage and microSD expansion. It runs Android, so you can install reading apps like Kindle, Kobo and Libby instead of being locked to one store. It also plays audio and opens PDFs. Against black-and-white rivals such as the Kindle Paperwhite, the color panel adds comics, magazines and highlighted text but looks softer and refreshes more slowly. It suits readers who want color and app freedom in a pocketable size.
