What is best ebook reader for ipad
iPad vs Kindle for Reading Books
hey guys welcome back to the channel if
you're new here my name is alia I'm a
junior doctor working in Cambridge and
in this video I'm gonna be answering the
age-old question of whether an iPad pro
is better for reading or whether an
Amazon Kindle is the one that you should
go for this is a question that has been
plaguing philosophers for thousands of
years but I'm hoping to answer it for
you as quickly as possible in this very
short video so basically the answer is I
would recommend a Kindle for reading
most things a Kindle is absolutely
amazing because it looks like you're
actually reading on paper so this is the
book of bad blood
it's about thoroughness that blood
testing startup that turned out to be a
bunch of lies but it's a sort of book
that I'm gonna be reading cover to cover
it's a sort of book I would read from
start to finish and therefore reading it
on a Kindle is absolutely perfect
because it looks like real paper it
feels like reading an actual book and
I've been using the Kindle to read about
99% of the books I've read for the last
like 10 plus years the the only thing an
iPad is good for in my opinion when it
comes to reading is for things like
medical textbooks where you want to be
able to kind of scan it from page to
page you want to be able to flick around
you want to be able to grab your Apple
pencil and maybe annotate some bits and
bobs on your iPad that's the sort of
thing that is just completely impossible
to do with the Kindle so if the sort of
reading you're going to be doing
involves actually reading cover to cover
100% you should get a Kindle even if you
have an iPad it's just a far better
experience reading on a Kindle because
it looks like real paper you can read it
in bed it doesn't strain your eyes the
new Kindle is a waterproof iPad is not
waterproof the Kindle is cheap and like
you can carry it around wherever you go
the iPad is not cheap it's kind of like
you can't sort of carry it around it's
quite hard to use the iPad pro
one-handed you could use the iPad Mini
one-handed but fundamentally reading on
an iPad feels like reading on a screen
whereas reading on a Kindle feels like
reading on real paper that completely
sells the Kindle for me like yeah like
if you if you want a device for reading
you have to go for the Kindle if you
want a device for browsing through text
books or PDFs or whatever I'm annotating
them then the iPad is better I'll use
both extensively whenever I go on
holiday I take both the Kindle and the
iPad pro with me and people sometimes
say oh why are you carrying both devices
can't you just use the Kindle app on
your phone to read and yeah you can but
it's just so-so noise really gonna
Kindle reading on a phone feels like you
know I'm just looking at my phone so I'd
hundred percent recommend the Kindle in
fact I've made a couple of videos about
this the Kindle is probably the second
most valuable purchase I've ever made in
my life
after the
your camera that I bought which
kick-started my youtube channel so I've
been a Kindle fanboy since like 2008 or
something like that and that's only
gonna continue I've got hundreds of
books on Kindle and I automatically
assign them to my Goodreads account when
I'm reading so I can keep track of
everything I've read I also have the
Kindle app on the iPad and it's alright
on the iPad I sometimes you know if I
absolutely have to I would use the
Kindle app to read on the iPad but it's
just not as nice it's like reading on a
screen rather than reading on paper so
yeah that's that's pretty much it if you
want to read then you should get a
Kindle if you have an iPad but don't
have a Kindle I would still probably
recommend you buy the Kindle because
it's just for a far better experience if
you have a Kindle should you get an iPad
well maybe but not for reading purposes
if you want to get an iPad you should
get an iPad for all the other reasons to
get an iPad the iPad is not a device
very well suited for reading things
cover to cover it's amazing for all
sorts of other things so that's pretty
much it get the Kindle the Kindles
amazing I'll put an affiliate link in
the description below so if you buy it
I'll make like one percent commission
from Amazon for selling something from
their website so yeah thank you for
watching the video if you liked it
please give it a thumbs up if you

day and I'll see you in the next video
bye
