About this product

The Bigme B6 Color eReader is a 6-inch colour E Ink reader that runs Android, which means it can install reading apps from many different services. It is aimed at readers who want colour for book covers, comics and highlights, plus more flexibility than a locked-down reader offers.

How much does the Bigme B6 Color eReader cost?

What we like

Colour E Ink in a pocket-sized reader.
Sharp 300 ppi black-and-white text.
Android 14, so you are not limited to one bookshop’s app.
64 GB of storage plus a microSD slot.
A frontlight with adjustable colour temperature.

What to consider

Colour E Ink is muted compared with a tablet, and colour detail is lower than text detail.
The colour filter layer makes the screen look darker than a black-and-white reader, so the frontlight is used more often.
Apps built for phones can feel slow on E Ink, and battery life is shorter than on basic readers.
Smaller brands vary in how long they provide updates, and the menus may have rougher edges than big-name readers.

Who should buy it

The Bigme B6 Color eReader will appeal to readers who use several ebook apps, read comics or illustrated books, or want colour highlights and covers in a small device. Its Android system suits people who enjoy adjusting settings and choosing their own apps.

It is less suitable for anyone who wants the simplest possible reader. People who read only novels gain little from colour and may prefer the brighter-looking screen and longer battery life of a black-and-white e-reader. Those who want vivid colour for magazines should consider a tablet.

How it compares

The Bigme B6 sits in the colour e-reader category, above basic black-and-white readers. Standard readers are simpler, last longer between charges and have lighter-looking screens, but they show no colour and often tie you to one store. Android E Ink readers trade some of that simplicity for app choice. Larger colour readers suit comics and PDFs better, at a higher cost and weight. Tablets show far richer colour but are harder on the eyes for long reading and need frequent charging. As general guidance, choose colour E Ink only if your reading includes covers, charts or comics.

Water resistance: do not assume any; none is stated in the verified specifications.
