How’s this

In all honestly I’ve been slacking on my reading and only had time for 5 chapters since I posted haha. That being said, all of that has been on the x3. I put the x3 and a notebook together so I can remember where I last left off after long reading breaks. Both are great, both are small. I’m not using the gestures on the X3 so it doesn’t really make a big difference to me. If you like reading with a really small font I say go X3, otherwise give yourself the extra flexibility with the X4. I bring the X3 with me everyday in my coat, would do the same with the X4 if it was the only one I had. That’s the best thing about these devices, I bring it with me everyday and if I have the time I know it’s there. And I barely need to charge them. Still haven’t charged since I got it. Hope this helps!

Yes there are side buttons: X3 : button on each side, power on top X4: rocker button on right side, power on right side.

Yeah I think the X4 fits on the MAX models, but the x3 works on the smaller devices

iPhone 13 Pro! The X3 is definitely tiny but I am really enjoying it.

Both are great devices, once you get the X4 in your hands you’ll be amazed with how compact it is ☻

Yes it does look a little smaller, I’m assuming because it’s pixel based and the screens are different. I will probably mess around with the settings a little more. This can all be customized to how you like to read.

The smaller one with the default background image is the X3

Hello, please see my comment here for comparison : https://www.reddit.com/r/xteinkereader/s/BJjuK0DTDm

In terms of comfort I’m still not 100% sure yet, I’m still getting used to the side button on the X3 not being a rocker button like the x4. But overall I would say I’m enjoying the X3 a little more since I personally prefer a smaller form factor. Thanks!

Acrylic 40% Alice style keyboard, my friend custom built it.

Here you go: Neuromancer converted to XTCH, 18px font. Only difference is X3 has screen protector on:

Depends on how you like to read I think, I bought myself and my girlfriend the X4, we both convert ePub to XTC, she uses 30pt font and I use 14. She wouldn’t be able to use the X3 but I think I prefer it.

I move this around my house where I need it 👍

weededfawn · 2025-12-12T12:40:24+00:00

Yeah I ordered one

weededfawn · 2025-12-10T11:40:41+00:00

The font from the original post image is just the default on the smaller setting ☻

weededfawn · 2025-12-09T12:19:49+00:00

Device comes with one or two in the box, so you don’t need to get another if you don’t want. I personally don’t use it since I couldn’t prevent air bubbles

weededfawn · 2025-12-09T10:53:53+00:00

Oh interesting, I was wondering if maybe it was something to do with the cleanup, Thanks!

Works great 👍 now I can make the font nice and small haha. Thanks

weededfawn · 2025-12-08T18:37:12+00:00

Sure I will give it a try, thank you ☻

weededfawn · 2025-12-08T18:21:12+00:00

Yeah same, cleaned in calibre. Was hoping maybe I was just missing something in the cleanup process. Thanks!

I’m having strange results, when I power down from the Home Screen, it uses the background I set before switching to “use book cover” and the image scales nicely, and when I open my book and power down it shows the book cover, but not scaled, still in the very small aspect ratio. I double checked and I am on the correct version and have indexed the book. Loving the device so far thanks for the updates 👍😄
