Vivlio One-O e-reader introduced

The Vivlio One-O is a new e-reader launched by the Lyon-based brand Vivlio, designed as a more affordable and basic option compared to its more advanced sibling, the Vivlio One. It targets general consumers looking for a simple reading device rather than power users seeking premium features.

Key features of the Vivlio One-O

The device includes a 6-inch E-Ink screen with a high pixel density of 212 ppi, offering a reading experience similar to printed paper. It also has adjustable built-in lighting, a 1,750 mAh battery that lasts several weeks on a single charge, and water resistance, a feature often found in higher-end models.

Current availability and pricing

The Vivlio One-O is currently on sale at E.Leclerc with a 21% discount for Black Friday. The promotional price is 89.99 euros, including a custom protective case, compared to its regular price of 113.89 euros. The device is marketed as a compact and lightweight option, weighing just 150 grams.

Design and user interface

The Vivlio One-O comes with a custom case that mimics leather with a velvet interior, adding a premium feel to its budget-friendly price. Its interface is simplified and user-friendly, ideal for beginners, but it lacks support for PDF files and Adobe DRM-protected content, which limits its compatibility with certain digital libraries.
