I tinkered with my micro e-reader and made it better than a Kindle

I’ve enjoyed using the Xteink X4 since I wrote about it in January, but I’ll be the first to admit it has problems. You don’t have to hold the tiny magnetic e-reader for long to find them. It has a confusing number of buttons, and it’s hard to predict what they’ll do. It can’t actually stick to the back of most phones unless you’re willing to attach an additional magnetic ring or deal with it protruding out of the side of your phone. And it’s not always the best to use, or particularly good at displaying EPUBs.
