Reading on Paperwhite VS Nexus 7

[Middle-C]

i recently got a Nexus 7 2nd gen, but i'm deciding against unboxing it, as i dont wana get myself distracted while reading. i bot it for the FHD screen. was considering the Kobo Aura HD..

Anyone with both paperwhite and nexus 7 2?
Is it still worth keeping the Kindle paperwhite?
the nexus 7 2 is not meant for prolong reading?
time to let my kindle go? ='(

Uh, the Nexus' screen is like any other tablet screen. The Kindle's eINk is totally different. The Nexus' screen can be used for prolonged reading of course (like a computer can be used for prolonged reading) but there are differences due to the advantages that eInk offers. No reason to let your Kindle (or any other eInk reading device) go if you're happy with it...

I have both devices, the new Nexus 7 and the paperwhite. I will advise you to keep the Paperwhite for reading. You really can't compete with eink screen for its easy to read screen and the long battery life. For me, the Nexus 7 is for entertainment purposes like watching movies, playing games and surfing the net. Just keep both devices?
