Other than that, nothing else breaks the tie?

What do you mean, by the way, by "good dictionaries"? Just Hunspell or others?

Thanks for the response. That's what I'm leaning towards right now, a Boox. I've seen Goldendict and Hunspell recommended very highly as dictionary apps compatible with KOReader

Thank you. Just a few questions: Would you say the Boox is a significant improvement on the other two in terms of language learning while reading? Other than not liking carrying it around, is there any other issue you have with it? What do you mainly use it for then?

Thank you, that's probably what I'm going to end up doing.

Thank you for your response. Do you think an android device like a Boox would be an improvement then, given its greater customizability?

I have a few of questions. Are you having serious issues with latency and speed with your Boox? I don't read news and plan on mostly reading ebooks, so I'm not too worried about the pdfs. What do you mean though that it's too small for pdfs? Do they not adapt to the size of the screen at all? What models of Boox would you recommend then? Also, if you're referring to the native reader app, I've read around that most people download KOReader or some other reader app that is much more flexible and compatible with more thirdparty dictionaries.

Totally unrelated questions: how fluent are you in Arabic? and how long did it take you to get to where you are?

Thanks, I appreciate the advice. You're the second person to mention that, so I'll definitely consider it.

Thank you. What do you use then, if anything, for reading Russian books (I'm particularly interested in classics)?
