Great replacement for an old flatbed scanner

Much faster. A little awkward to use, but not critical. If you use it every day, it's easy. It's only occasional use and you forget what you have to do to turn it on and scan compared to the old days when you just pressed the scan button. Although it has "anti-aliasing" technology, if you have something that curls after folding, it's best to smooth the corners with a weight to get the perfect image. It "defines" the image very well, making it easy for you to line it up. I'm happy with it and it

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Available in white only

Great scanner for the price

This scanner is great for books and magazines so you can scan them on your tablet without damaging them. Lasers are very good at detecting curves and digitally leveling the image. I like the pedal when I have to scan hundreds of pages. The reason it gets three stars instead of five is because the actual image quality leaves a lot to be desired. This is great for black and white text, but each color looks very washed out, it's difficult to capture an image like you would with a flatbed scanner…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Compact Scanner/Lamp

I am satisfied with this scanner. It's easy to use and syncs easily with my computer (I have a Mac). It takes up very little space, which allows me to leave it standing all the time. The only thing I didn't understand was that it works like a lamp, which was a pleasant surprise. This light can be used in different modes (reading, computer, etc.) and controlled via an app. Possible "cons" to mention: the scanned pages are scanned cleanly (the background of the pages is darkened) and scanning…

  • Great for me

Great value for a consumer quality scanner

Having scanned 15 books of 400 pages each I am generally satisfied with this device. The hardware is easy to set up and the software is intuitive and simple, yet very powerful. Scanning is very fast, about as fast as you can turn and straighten pages and press the scan button (or footswitch). Total project time for a large book is less than an hour. Scanning and OCR (in English) were nearly error-free and bulletproof, even for technical documents. He even found the words in the pictures…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

I've tested both the E18 Pro and the Aura and the reason this review gets 4 stars is simply because of how much better it is E18 is . This scanner doubles as a desk lamp and can be folded when not closed. This makes it less intrusive and more useful for the everyday user. It also features a foot pedal for hands-free operation. With that being said; This is really only for casual users as the ET18 is really what this product should have been. While this device can definitely detect the edges of…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Big and bulky

Ideal for OCR for text-to-speech

I will cover all the details I want to find in other reviews. Don't have a CD player? Use the QR code on your device to: 1.) Register your product. 2.) Get the software. 3.) Watch the how-to video documentation. Don't bother to download the iOS app from the App Store (this is just a table lamp control. You can't use your phone to control the scanner). I am dyslexic. Bought this scanner to make books available for text to speech (Siri). And it speeds up scanning. OCR is better than 99% accuracy,

Pros
  • Laser + AI: Aura's built-in three laser lines use a revolutionary AI algorithm to straighten the book's curves. Digitize books without unlinking
Cons
  • speed

Know what you get from scanners

First of all I really like this scanner but there are some limitations to be aware of. If you can't live with that, look for a high-end scanner. Overall, this is great for home use if you're not too picky about the results. I've scanned a bookshelf now, but still haven't found a way to scan more than one book a day. I use a Macbook Pro and haven't had any issues with the software itself. Most issues are related to operational needs. Pros: Relatively easy setup and basic usage. I had an issue…

Pros
  • 32 LEDs + 2 additional side lights: Provide the best lighting for scanning and reading.
Cons
  • So

Excellent value, excellent performance

Considering the price, the Aura is a great addition to your scanning equipment, especially if you are scanning odd sized pages or books/brochures.1) The packaging was very professional, very elegant and more than adequate to protect the contents . Return duplicate fields, so that's a plus. 2) The whole interface is very easy to understand and use. There are just a few improvements I'd like to see (mentioned later). The software works almost perfectly. Initially I had a few user errors which…

Pros
  • Windows and Mac OS support plus 1 year warranty.

Functional but not Stellar

I've scanned over 15,000 pages of sheet music since I bought it. I bought it because it was one of the cheapest, with a pedal and the ability to work with A3 books. Overall, I'm glad I made the purchase. Although I had many frustrations with its quirks. First of all, the picture quality is good, but not outstanding. So if you're trying to scan photos or something more detailed than just text, I definitely recommend spending more money on something nicer. The other big problem is the software…

Pros
  • scanner + smart lamp: glare-free, flicker-free and easy on the eyes 4 color temperature settings. Controlled by the CZUR app. Sound control technology, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connection are not required.
Cons
  • socket required.
