Many of those who made their original purchase when this product was released are still going strong after several years of use. In this day and age of instantly outdated technology, it’s nice to see electronics still going strong years later.

Features

The RCA REB1100 offers the basics in eReaders with a 5.5 inch display screen and just 8 MB of built in storage. The storage is, however, expandable up to 128 MB, but nowhere near its more modern counterparts of 512 MB built in storage.

While the battery is rechargeable and is said to offer up to 30 hours on a single charge, the use of the backlight will significantly reduce this time to approximately 12-15 hours.

The RCA REB does offer standard what is now optional and extra with the more modern electronic readers, as it comes with a stylus, power adapter, phone cord, USB cable and slip case.

Bottom Line

While many are looking for sleek, techie electronic readers with all the bells and whistles, eBook purists who would just like the basics for reading on the run may find the RCA REB has just what they need.
