Tried them all and this is the only one that renders tables, styles, superscripts, subscripts and notes properly. Slow and big but good results.

I love this reader. I have tried most of them,so far this is the best. I'm not sure if its me or the app,but the highlighting tool is difficult to use I haven't had success yet. It might be the protector I have on the screen.

Works like described. Better dictionary support is needed. You can't touch a word and select translate. Only Wiktionay is available.

Supports rtl languages such as Arabic, good toc and bookmark support, good navigational interface, keeps track of last place in each book, no ads.

User interface is slower than I would want to use daily. Tools are a great idea, but they need to be able to be hidden when reading.

Best epub reader by far Supports rtl languages such as Arabic, good toc and bookmark support, good navigational interface, keeps track of last place in each book, no ads.

Could be great--ONLY one I've found that properly renders CSS and all HTML elements. But display cluttered by unwanted buttons (even when hidden, there's still one), ugly colored margin, and BOTTOM OF TEXT IS CUT OFF. Uninstalling.
