New Sony E-readers to Come with High Prices

Amazon was not the only one with its long list of e-readers to its credit. Looks like, Sony made the intrusion with something of its own that is known as the “Pocket”, “Touch” and “Daily Edition”. The old Touch and Daily Edition Readers are known to feature a touchscreen overlay. It was previously reported that there were some response related bugs in the e-reader’s screen.

Hence, Sony made improvements to the E-Ink display for a clear quality of text and photos. They also took notice of display glitches that impact the eyesight under direct sunlight. The new models of Sony e-readers are going to be released in winter this year.

Currently, the Pocket is priced at $180, which is $30 more than its usual price. This e-reader has 2 gigs of memory, 5 inch screen and crispier display. Meanwhile, the Touch has a price tag of $230 – $60 more than the usual price. But the latter device offers a 7 inch screen, more memory and enhanced level of display as well.

Sony E-readers are being compared to Amazon’s these days. However, it is a long march for Sony because Kindle e-readers are way ahead of others in the market.
