The best Fnac / Darty offers for the French Days

Kobo Libra H2O at 159 euros

Kobo by Fnac is the main competitor of Amazon Kindle in France. The brand recently unveiled the recent and expensive Kobo Elipsa allowing you to scribble and annotate your texts like on a real book, but there are much more affordable models, like the popular Libra H2O which has the particularity of being waterproof. Its 7-inch E-Ink screen displaying a definition of 1680 x 1264 pixels is of good quality and pleasant for the eyes, because of paper quality, and we especially appreciate its ergonomic and very functional design thanks to its thicker border on the right side, which makes perfect sense with the possibility of reading in portrait or landscape mode. Allow several weeks for autonomy.

The Fnac reader in brief

• A 7-inch 300 dpi E-Ink display
• Reading in portrait or landscape format
• Completely waterproof via its IPX8 protection

Instead of the usual 179 euros, the Kobo Libra H2O (8 GB of internal memory) is today in promotion for only 159 euros on the Fnac website. The waterproof e-reader is available in two colors at this price: white and black.

The DJI Osmo Pocket pack at 279 euros

DJI does not only make drones, it is also a competitor of GoPro with its cameras. Its Osmo Pocket is a bit special with its rod design, but its mechanical stabilization works wonders for stunning 4K videos. There are also a lot of practical features, such as the mode Active Tracking which automatically follows a moving subject, or the slow motion. Regarding autonomy, the 825 mAh battery allows it to film for 1h30 in 4K and it is fully recharged in just over an hour.

Xiaomi Mi TV Q1 75 to 1199 euros

You should know that the Mi TV Q1 75 has HDMI 2.1 ports and supports 4K definition as well as a refresh rate of 120 Hz, but the TV simply cannot do both at the same time. VRR is also not supported. You will therefore not enjoy an optimal experience with your Playstation 5 or your Xbox Series X, but Xiaomi’s TV has other arguments to make, such as being currently the best value for money of the French Days for a 75-inch QLED panel.

The Xiaomi Mi 4K Laser at 1,999 euros

the Xiaomi Mi 4K Laser is able to project an image 150 inches diagonally while being only a few inches from the wall. If this projector is labeled 4K, the definition is in fact native to Full HD (1,920 × 1,080 pixels), like the majority of ultra-short throw projectors. It is with the chip on board that the projector will be able to simulate an image in 4K definition by XPR × 4 processing. It will therefore project two images in 1920 x 1080 pixels to create the illusion of the 4K image. That being said, the result is very correct, with a crisp image offering intense colors thanks to its high brightness of 1600 lumens. In terms of sound, the Chinese manufacturer integrates two 30W speakers offering good sound quality thanks to support for Dolby and DTS codecs.

• An almost 4K image up to 150 inches
