The Tolino isn’t spectacularly fast though. (It is in fact so boring that I nodded off twice while writing this post.)īut none of that really matters, does it? You would be hard pressed to pull it out of a pile of other 6″ ereaders like the Paperwhite or the latest device from Boeye. The Shine 3 /Clara HD is a very adequate ereader, but let’s be honest: it is a boring black rectangle. Weighing in at 166 grams, the Shine 3 measures 8.4mm thin and is powered by a 1.5Ah battery. The 6″ Carta E-ink display has a screen resolution of 300 ppi as well as a capacitive touchscreen and a color-shifting frontlight. Like the Clara HD, the Shine 3 has Wifi but no Bluetooth or audio. ![]() The Tolino Shine 3 runs an unknown OS (probably Android) on a 1GHz Freescale CPU with 512MB RAM and 8GB internal storage. This is a new mid-market ereader, and it uses the same Netronix-designed hardware as the Kobo Clara HD, only with better software. On Wednesday Tolino announced the Shine 3 ereader. It has been just over a year since Kobo became the technical partner for the Tolino brand, and the two companies are now buying their hardware from the same place.
