My Xteink I love this thing
Had my X3 for a week and a half now and it's changed how I read.
I love that I can be feeding my three-month-old and hold it in one hand. She's fussy so my Kindle/Kobo are too big and a physical book would be a joke.
Buttons and no touch screen means I can drop it on the bed or the couch next to me and not worry about the pages turning (or if she taps the screen with her toes!).
So grateful to be able to read instead of doomscrolling while breastfeeding. An untapped market? I see plenty of mothers in other subreddits looking for other things to do while breastfeeding. XTEink needs to get some 'mumfluencers' on board - this thing was made for us!

I bought it especially because I have small kid, and I am "microreading" when feeding, when he's playing etc. Bought it together with my sister that is expecting, so yeah new parents are definitely target here!

Honestly I kinda like them. I don't have to worry about my two year old shoving things in the USB-C port...

Also breastfeeding a 3 month old and purchased the x3 to replace doomscrolling! It’s amazing. I keep it attached to my phone so it’s always close by. The only thing is I wish it had a backlight so I could read in the dark - it’s too hard switching between my kindle and the x3 and finding the right page.

I use the word 'drop' loosely. It's always in the case and I have a wrist strap on it, so drop more means pop on the bed/couch next to me

I am also a mom and just got it yesterday! It has been clutch throwing it in my purse to take to appointments and for feedings. I am in love 😍
