A touch of luxury awaits with the Kobo Libra Colour eReader. Its 7-inch color touchscreen is perfect for summer escapades. And yes, it’s waterproof too! 

PocketBook Inkpad Color 3  

Another color ePaper champion, this e-reader boasts an IPX8 rating. It fearlessly dives into fresh water up to 2 meters deep for a full hour. So go ahead, read in the rain or take it to the beach – it’s got you covered!
