PocketBook InkPad Color 3
Accessories
Cases, styluses and lights worth owning.
The InkPad Color 3 is large and a little heavy, so a case matters — both for protection and, with a fold-back folio, for propping it up during long comic or magazine sessions. Get one that sleeps and wakes the device and leaves the bottom buttons clear. It has a built-in speaker, so headphones are optional, but a set of Bluetooth earbuds is worth having for private listening. There is no microSD slot, so a card is not an option here. Picks are grouped by type below, with a note on which are cut for this device and which fit any reader.

Screen protector for the PocketBook InkPad Color 3
A clear or lightly matte film cut for the InkPad Color 3's 7.8-inch screen. On a colour panel, a heavily textured "paper-feel" film dulls the colour, so a clearer film is the better choice here.
