Product details

Brings the real passion of reading to light. More than just beautiful appearance
The design of the tolino shine 3 combines aesthetics with functionality.
The eReader with 6" display is considerably smaller and even more compact, yet offers the same reading area as its predecessor. Not only the new format, but also the new non-slip surface structure on the reverse side ensure better manageability. It provides a good "grip" when holding the eBook reader and makes longer reading effortlessly possible. The simplified operation bundles all functions of the device for the first time clearly in the menu of the tolino shine 3 - even the reading light and the navigation to the homepage can now be operated intuitively by wiping gesture. The reading freedom with tolino also remains convenient: you decide yourself where and when to buy your eBooks. In the online shops of tolino booksellers, you can browse between more than 3 million eBooks around the clock and download your new favourite book directly.

Integrated reading light with smartLight: the best light day and night.
The unique smartLight always ensures optimum reading light. The colour temperature of the integrated reading light adjusts automatically and changes from cold white light in the morning to warm white light in the evening in harmony with natural daylight. Perfect for your biorhythm - especially if you like to read before falling asleep. Of course, you can also adapt smartLight to your individual preferences or to the ambient light: choose between cool or warm light.

Save space was yesterday: extra large memory for all your eBooks
From now on your digital library can grow on the tolino shine 3 in big steps. With the generous 8 GB memory, 6 GB of which for your books, up to 6,000 eBooks can be stored locally on your tolino shine 3.

Powerful battery for weeks of reading pleasure
This staying power inspires even frequent readers: The tolino shine 3 consumes only little power when reading and thus guarantees weeks of reading pleasure without a charging cable.

Reading like on paper: strikingly high contrast with 300 ppi E Ink Carta Display
Exceptional handiness and a high-contrast typeface, just like on paper, make the tolino shine 3 a must-have for reading enthusiasts. The high-resolution E Ink Carta display ensures an eye-friendly reading experience even on excessive reading nights. No annoying mirror effects in sunlight or quickly tiring eyes due to backlit displays (e.g. smartphone, tablet). Change the font size in seconds by wiping gesture or vary the font according to personal preferences - the precise and fast touch screen of the tolino shine 3 now makes reading with tolino even easier.

tolino cloud - safe storage and synchronization
Thanks to the free connection to the tolino cloud you can also enjoy your eBooks flexibly on other reading devices. The tolino app and the tolino webreader make reading on different end devices particularly convenient.
