Hey RJ. Thank you for doing this video. Could you provide more info on the products you mentioned to aid in quality sleep? Woof? Something about chilly blanket, and something that vibrates to wake you up. I am a long time cpap user and would love to get off it. Thank you.

Would you recommend getting an iPad mini over a kindle? I read novels, but getting into manga and I can see myself wanting to read comic books eventually.

I like to read novels and such on my kindle paperwhite and magazines and comics on my iPad mini

I have both. The kindle forces me to read whereas the iPad makes me want to play on the internet.

Hi, you mentioned the kobo app briefly. Can you anotate in an ebook via the kobo app on the ipad mini?

You can also use a software called 'Calibre' that i use on my computer to convert pdf books to epub.

If you convert scientific journal pdf to kindle what happens to the figures? Do that turn out alright?

Or buy one of the onyx Boox.

Thank you !

I wish I bought an iPad mini instead of Kindle PW, everyone said Kindle is better, but not for me. I read at home only, prefer to read on phone screens (physical books are kinda distracting for me with its texture), and don't need a strong battery. It's slow, I have to pick up my phone to search for unknown words, as it's faster. And I have to send ePubs through Calibre to avoid hyphenation, why is there still no option for this... don't take it as a vent or something, just sharing for those who plan to buy a Kindle or iPad and not yet sure. Listen to yourself when choosing

Nice

in email you send file up to 25mb... wb bigger files

Thumbs up this comment if you want to see another video where I go further into the apps and ways that I figure out peak timing with my Apple Watch or Oura Ring.

Can I just say that you saved my kindle! I can read so much more on it now and i can save my phone’s battery! I love you bro! You are magic 🪄 ❤

Hi RJ! I love this video, this is what I’d like to do too when my current device either gets too old or if it dies. . I only read at bedtime and I’ve been doing something similar for years on the kindle fire 6 inch which was discontinued a few years ago. I love how small it is. I only use this for reading my kindle books and keep the Wi-Fi turned off except for when I charge it which is every 5 to 6 days since the Wi-Fi is turned off. But I’m a total Apple nerd and when I replace the fire6 this is what I’ll do, go for an iPad mini so I can use all of my reading apps, kindle, kobo, google books and a few others. I use the blue shade on my kindle and I’ve noticed I fall asleep faster since I started using that setting. My iPad mini will be set up sort of like yours, but even simpler. I love your channel! Thanks!

Great video, thank you.

protip, you can also turn on reduce white point in accessibility settings. reduces the intensity of bright colors and lessens eyestrain. i recommend it when reading colored stuff. this and a matte screen protector looks amazing.

Did you pay for the blank app?

Very cool. Tbh I don’t use my iPad for focused reading for the reasons you mentioned, but this makes me think I should revisit that. Maybe when the iPad mini 7 comes out…

Helpful, thanks

The great thing about Kindle reader (Oasis) is the ability to turn off the screen touch. Then make me can grab the screen like paper without afraid of turning the page. I wish kindle apps in iPad have that features to turn off the screen touch.

Commuting to work, holding it by hand so much and carrying it on my bag. My only concern with any tablet vs kindle was the weight. So kindle was the only one i carry these days

I personally use an iPad as my primary reading device. I would love to use a paperwhite, but sadly they are proprietary and they lock you into Amazon only, or B&N only, etc. This is a showstopper for me since I have books across multiple distributors. The iPad has better versatility as well. Reading in the sun is probably the biggest detractor for me when it comes to the iPad.

Let me guess… you have to charge it for 60 days in a row

i'm planning to buy a Kindle right now! but i can't buy books easily in my country so i need to buy them on another platforms and move them in my device (Currently using an iPhone) can i transfer my Downloaded ebooks from other platform via USB cable or any other methods?

I love reading on my amazon fire. Books are fine, plus I can read graphic novels

loved this!

Thank you friend 🙏 Loved it! 🌷 Bless you! 🌟

Well, ipad mini is great for reading--that's for sure. But it's heavy and even heavier to be handled over a period of time. That's the only problem. Kindle's weight is perfect for long time reading.

What app do you use for the iPad for reading?

your voice

I have an iPad Pro that i read on. I’m just use to it since I’ve never had a kindle or iPad mini

You can use calibre to fill your Kindle with whatever you want. The main advantage is that you do that by the computer, and then you have it on the Kindle. I get ebooks and articles from all manner of places and put them on my Kindle, and then I have it with me when I want to read it. My Kindle fits in my jacket pocket, so I often have only that (and my phone). I hardly ever read on the iPad mini, since eink is vastly less stressful for the eyes than an LCD.

I gotta know what backpack you rockin, i l love the color

I'm so glad I found your channel, thank you for the effort you put..going to watch your other videos for sure

Tbf if your friend only used 30% of the kindles battery in two months, he either didn’t read a whole lot or he reads super super fast. Battery in the kindle is good and obviously crushes any other device in this department but it’s not THAT good.

before i got a paperwhite, several years ago, i bought a kindle fire which is basically just a regular tablet with limited capabilities, and my eyes strain was soooooo bad reading on that thing for hours at a time. it would give me serious headaches. i could never ever go back from an e-ink display for reading.

Ah, but can your kindle read to you? The iPad can do audiobooks AND use the accessibility features can read e-books to you if the audiobook isn’t available.

This video was a godsend, I’d been forever trying to find a way to send my huge epub collection over to my Kindle and have it formatted nicely too and now I have it. Thank you!!

I got an iPad mini instead of a kindle because it opened up the many ways and platforms I could read. I can also use it for content creation for my bookstagram

I would prefer kindle scribe and iPad Air because I don’t feel very comfortable reading in small screens

The infinite vertical scrolling mode on the Kindle iOS app is fantastic. I wish it were available on the Kindle. The ability to purchase new books directly on the Kindle is nice. I tend to use the Kindle Signature at home, & he iPhone Pro Max or iPad Mini when out & about, so that I don’t have to carry an additional device. I also listen to Audible audiobooks on the iPhone.

I have been reading on tablets and phone for 15 years, I can't go back to kindle. The uneven lighting and words on kindle hurt me eyes😅. While the backlit screen on tablet /phone doesn't strain my eyes at all once I got used to it.

I have both devices but could NEVER read long form text on my iPad as it would just strain my eyes. All the more power to you. The way the iPad screen works is it has a refresh rate of 60Hz. That means even on a static page that isn't turning it's refreshing that image 60 times per second without you noticing. Over long periods this can cause discomfort.

idk, I prefer reading on my ipad, mainly because i don't like being stuck on one platform for books. I have ebooks from many apps, from apple books, google books, and nook. I know there are e-readers out there that are android base, which will allow me to access these apps for my ebooks, however I know i just wouldn't use it cause I would say I am more like a creative. I draw, I make amv's, I read and I even write. Not professionally, just as a hobby, but because of that, iPads are just a better option for someone like me.

I wish the mini had an OLED screen like the iPhone. It makes the black fonts sharp and easier to read. It is otherwise too blurry in my opinion.

I originally got the mini predominantly for reading but ended up selling it. It was so heavy compared to a kindle and didn’t use it enough for the price ahaha

The worst thing about iPad is that it has an LCD screen instead of an amoled screen which would've made a lot more sense for people to take notes on and read out of but apple being apple they made the most horrible decision in the mankind. I own a iPad Pro 11 inch and I fucking hate it when I read for more than 10 min and get headaches

What type of meditation do you do? I’m new and don’t know exactly how to start. Thanks!
