The PRS-T1 boasts a 6-inch E Ink Pearl display, which delivers sharp text and crisp images, mimicking the appearance of printed paper.

Furthermore, the device comes with 2GB of internal storage, which can be expanded via a microSD card slot, allowing users to carry thousands of books in one device.

In addition to the PRS-T1, the PRS-T1RC (Reader Companion) and PRS-T1WC (White) variants provide users with even more choices. The PRS-T1RC, featuring a specialized cover, includes added functionality like an integrated light for nighttime reading. The PRS-T1WC, on the other hand, comes in a striking white finish, appealing to users who prefer a modern aesthetic.

Connectivity options are also robust, with the PRS-T1 offering Wi-Fi capabilities, allowing users to access Sony's online bookstore and download e-books directly to the device.
