Is reading an E-book on a tablet/Kindle or reading a book (physical) the old-fashioned way preferable?
I prefer ebooks over printed books because ebooks can be read using cellphone so that you can have anywhere you go and on ebook you only need to do is swipe by your finger to turn to next page and you can read it even when the light is off

I think ebooks are better than printed ones. You can bring a lot of books with you and inside a single phone without suffering the bulk of carrying printed ones. You get to have a library on the palm of your hands. There are a lot of free digital copies on the internet (as well as pirated books). The downside of ebooks is that they're dependent on the battery of your device. You have to keep it charged everytime.

for me printed books is better than e-books. You can read it anytime you want unlike ebook you cannot read it unless you have battery in your phone or tablet.

eBooks for-sure!
Lighter, can be read anywhere, can search for keywords, can use text to speech.
Very efficient.

If you are short on budget and you need some resources, there are many e-books that can be downloaded on the internet. But in reading a book more efficiently, I prefer to read a printed book. Not only because the old fashioned way is more effective, but because reading an e-book is quite distracting especially when using your smartphone where you can go browsing the internet or social media in just a few clicks.

e-books are hard to read in contrast to normal books, but they are more convenient in other aspects, such as stories
if you have a problem with our eyes go for normal books otherwise use e-books

I do not have a bad library of printed books, which I sometimes re-read. But I buy new ones very rarely - they are expensive and take up space. In this often I download books from the Internet and read on the tablet.

Though E-Books provides ease of use, printed books are better for me. I can't stand to stare at screens of laptop or computers for too long which is not a good thing.

I totally agree with you. Printed books are way better than E-Books. Why? Because in printed books, everything written in there are facts and they are well thought of. Not unlike with E-Books, the facts written in there can be easily changed since it is not printed but is posted and even children using e-books can change it since it is easy to change. This might lead to misinformation. So, I really prefer printed books over e-books.

If we're talking strictly about reading, and not say listening to the computer reading it for you, then printed books.

Now in terms of convenience, if you're a reader it's easier to carry hundreds of book in a reader than books in a bag.

So like with everything, it depends on the person.

I'll go for the printed books If I were to spend my whole day at home. Printed books have this energies from dead trees and it's so comfortable to smell it from the inside-out. For travelling, I preferred E-books because you can put a thousand of books in one gadget. It's all about preferences people. Cheesy

many factor comes with that question. When it comes to the price, ebook is cheaper because it comes free in the internet while the printed ones is more expensive. When it comes to being handy, ofcourse gadgets are handy and small so you can read from ebooks there while books are bigger and heavier but when it comes to feels, books gives the utmost feeling of a reader, the cover and the smell of the pages makes the reading worthwhile.

E-books are waaaaaay more adaptive to nowdays digitalization. But if you like reading the old-fashion way - common books is the right choice.
