E-reader buyers are not chasing spec sheets, they're chasing relief. They read in bed, on commutes, and through long PDFs, and they buy to stop the eye strain, wrist ache, and blue-light sleeplessness their phones and tablets cause. A close second driver is freedom: borrowing free from the library and escaping DRM lock-in so they actually own their books. Most ads get this wrong, they sell model numbers and features instead of the emotional core (sleep, comfort, ownership), and they never show the pocketability, the clean ad-free screen, or the free-books story that actually closes the sale.
