Do you have a Nook or a Kindle? Why?

[huskyfan89]

I have a Kindle because I wasn't impressed with the Nook and because I prefer the format of the Kindle. I still buy print books however.

I have a Kindle, but I previously had a Nook. I find both of them to be very useful and handy, however there are few differences that have caused me to lean towards the Kindle.

I have a NOOK Color. I bought it in 2012 and have been happy with it. I can download books and magazines and more. It stores hundreds of books. I have about 90 right now. I am not sure what the storage is. I can use the internet, email, download documents and play games, although I only play crosswords now and then. I like the screen and it doesn't hurt my eyes. I've tried it in other countries and it worked, but you can't buy books. You can only read what you have and use the internet. I don't know what else I would need. My NOOK has gotten a little slow, but it seems to be a wireless problem. I would possibly get a Kindle someday. But I love NOOK.

I have a Kindle but don't use it anymore.I got it for Christmas a few years ago because my family knew I love reading.I prefer reading an actual book though.

I got a Kindle Fire a few years ago as a gift, and loved it, but now it's past the warranty and it isn't charging . Now I use a Kindle Keyboard, because my friend upgraded to the latest Kindle and had no use for the old one. I actually like the Keyboard better, because it isn't as heavy and I can read it without worrying about glare. All my coworkers use Nook, but I feel like I'm already invested in Kindle, since I've been buying my books from Amazon for the last three years.

I have owned a couple different styles of Kindle devices and have always been incredibly pleased. I have no experience with the Nook, though. My primary reason for using the Kindle is that I am a big fan of Amazon. I currently use a Kindle Fire and it is a great piece of technology. Not only does it allow me to read tons of books--I use it for numerous tasks. Travelling and being able to read, connect via social media, create/review/edit documents is invaluable. The price of books is hard to beat, and the tablet itself is much more affordable for me than other tablets.

I have a Kindle because it was a prize. I used it a couple of times, but really enjoy an actual book in my hands to a reader. The upside of the Kindle, is that I have all books at my fingertips at all times, which comes in handy.

I have a kindle and I absolutely love using it! Like many people have said, it is a lot cheaper to get books electronically than it is to shell out the shipping and handling. You also get access to the book instantly instead of waiting the standard time, and I usually loose interest in a book when I have to wait to get it. Plus, if you have the kindle with the light up screen then you don't have to worry about turning on all the lights just to read a book.
The only downside to getting a kindle is that I usually forget to charge the battery since I always loose myself in book and forget to do so. Also, I just love the smell of books for some reason and you obviously can't get that with a kindle.

I have a Toshiba tablet with kindle. Why. A friend of mine was getting rid of it. She told me it had kindle and I was sold. She knew I loved to read. I have only had it a few months but I love it. I like how I can find free book for both my kids and I to read. And always find new things to read

I have a Kindle Fire - first edition. I LOVE it. The only con I find with it is the glare in the sun, but the brightness on the screen can be adjusted. As well as the font size & background making it easier to see if reading in the sun. Provides sound, and can download apps just like a tablet! Hope this helps

I have a Nook and have owned one for several years now. It started out because I liked the option of adding a micro SD card for additional storage space back when eReaders first came out. I currently own the nook with glow and love they way it lights up without being backlit so I can read for longer periods of time without tiring my eyes.

I have a kindle. My nana gave it to me because they sent her an extra smaller one when she bought hers. I still use it when I can't get the book I want from the stores or library.

I only have a smartphone, a Tablet and a desktop and I have apps for both NOOK and Kindle. Happy with them. Although I'm sure my eyes are begging for a proper reading device.
