I just finished reading my first book, on the Orbit Reader 20. It’s simply amazing! The battery is only at 30%, but, it still will last a day without charging it. This shows the battery backup is solid. With Orbit Reader 20, I had the best braille reading experience, I ever had in my entire life! Panning buttons worked great. This display works wonderfully and amazingly! A highly recommended device!
I use the Orbit Reader 20 to take notes, read private files, and navigate my iPhone SE. I really like the Orbit Reader’s Braille and compact size. The fact that the Braille is firm and doesn’t give when pressed down is great, but in my opinion, the notetaker’s simplicity and price are the most appealing points to me. The ability to switch quickly between my iPhone and my notes is easy and quick. It provides essential notetaking functionality without duplicating what we can do on our computers and smart devices. It is the best notetaker I’ve ever owned! Let me be clear, there are notetakers that can provide an integrated experience, but they often need upgrading. The Orbit Reader’s simple functionality will make the unit’s value apparent for years to come as other technologies advance. This is one of the greatest investment for Braille users of all ages.
I leave my books open all the time and when I power up again, I’m right back where I left off. That’s one of the beauties of the machine to me
I have never seen a better braille display than the Orbit ones.
They are the best braille displays. I like that you can still take notes with them and store on sd cards.
I agree. I have an orbit reader 20+, and they are the best braille displays on the market paired with my iPhone. I can do things with the orbit and an iPhone or iPad that I could never do with the traditional $5000 braille note-takers.
In my opinion, there is no other braille display as good as the Orbit Readers. I have never seen a braille display like that one. It is worth it. Have you had a chance to see the display part of it? It is incredible.
The Braille Me is not even as good as the Orbit. I have had so many notetakers with braille displays, and I promise you, nothing compares with the Orbits.
Have a nice day.
I saw the Orbit, and I love the braille display. I never saw one as good. I am waiting for the 40.
The Orbit Reader is one of the most innovative products I’ve seen in a long time.
Honestly, I like how the Orbit Reader 20 offers a lot of features not dependent on the screen reader when in stand-alone mode.
I love my Orbit 20 Plus, and the automatic translation that it offers. It has the best quality braille I’ve ever seen on any display. Since I’ve gotten used to reading on it, now even new hard copy paper braille looks a little soft.
I have recently become the owner of an Orbit Reader 20 Plus and am making slow progress with re-learning the Braille I learned thirteen years ago, but it is great fun with the Orbit.
I just want to compliment you on the Orbit reader 20 Plus. I received one on my birthday, July 30 and I have loved it since then. I love being able to read books from both Bookshare and Bard. I love being able to take notes on the editor. I also love being able to utilize my phone with the Orbit reader 20 Plus. It’s such a wonderful device!
It is the best display at the best price that I have ever seen.
