A new e-reader is entering the US market — welcome the DuRoBo Krono e-reader

A Krono e-reader

Move over Kindle, a new bombshell has entered the e-reader field. DuRoBo's Krono e-reader is coming to the United States and European markets in 2026, and it's all kicking off at CES.

The Krono e-reader — or, as DuRoBo calls it, an ePaper Focus Hub — is a power-packed device coming with a lot more power than you're used to. Measuring 6.1 inches, it's a nearly pocket-sized device, smaller than even the basic Kindle.

All of its controls are housed in its smart dial, which, in addition to letting you navigate menus and adjust settings, also records voice notes on your command. It features a Carta 1200 HD display with 300 ppi resolution, notably the same resolution you'll find on Kindles.

What really stands out about the Krono e-reader is its 128GB of storage space. We're used to seeing e-readers max out at 32GB, and now the Krono is quadrupling that. But with its open Android operating system, you'll need that storage space for apps, as you can download Spotify, Reddit, Gmail, Google Drive, and plenty more to the device. It also has a built-in speaker in addition to Bluetooth connectivity, offering flexibility if you want to listen out loud or on a pair of wireless headphones.

The Krono won't be for everyone, as many e-reader users choose the devices for their distraction-free design. However, it bridges the gap between a tablet and e-reader and, with black and white displays, potentially makes it less tempting to scroll.

The Krono e-paper device will be on display at CES 2026, and is arriving to United States and European markets in late January. It will retail for $279.99 and will be available for purchase on DuRoBo's site.

When the clocks change for Daylight Saving Time, and why we do it at all

The clocks on our smartphones do something bizarre twice a year: One day in the spring, they jump ahead an hour, and our alarms go off an hour sooner. We wake up bleary-eyed and confused until we remember what just happened. Afterward, "Daylight Saving Time" becomes the norm for about eight months (And yes, it's called "Daylight Saving" not "Daylight Savings." I don't make the rules). Then, in the fall, the opposite happens. Our clocks set themselves back an hour, and we wake up refreshed, if a little uneasy.  Mild chaos ensues at both annual clock changes. What feels like an abrupt and drastic lengthening or shortening of the day causes time itself to seem fictional. Babies and dogs demand that their old sleep and feeding habits remain unchanged. And more consequential effects — for better or worse — may be involved as well (more on which in a minute). Changing our clocks is an all-out attack on our perception of time as an immutable law of ...
