Here are the latest news about Tolino:
13.04.24. Tolino e-readers will no longer use Android
Tolino e-readers, initially targeting the European German-speaking demographic, have been on the market since 2013. In 2019, Kobo took over the hardware design for all forthcoming e-readers while maintaining Android as the operating system. However, a recent report suggests a significant shift: upcoming models like the Tolino Shine, Tolino Vision Color and Shine Color will run on Linux with an entirely revamped UI and menu layout. This marks a transition where Kobo oversees both hardware and software development. Upon their release in June, these new Tolino e-readers will offer a user experience resembling Kobo's, though with subtle distinctions. Users can still access various German bookstores, purchase and listen to audiobooks and enjoy continued support for European libraries, facilitated by LCP DRMs.
2022. Tolino Epos 3 e-reader is now available
Tolino has launched a new e-reader called the Epos 3. It features an 8-inch screen with a state-of-the-art E INK Carta 1200 display panel. The exclusive smartLight guarantees optimal lighting at all times on your Tolino Epos 3. The advanced color adjustment, along with the built-in reading light, automatically adapts and adjusts based on the time of day—switching from cool white light in the morning to warm white light in the evening. This new technology is designed to enhance page turn speed by 25% and overall performance by 30%. The Epos 3 is the most expensive model in their lineup and is now available for purchase through Tolino Alliances distribution partners such as Thalia, Weltbild and Hugendubel for €279.00.
2020. Tolino Web Reader gets text to speech feature
