The Barnes & Noble NOOK GlowLight 4 Plus e-reader has appeared on the brand’s official retail platform. Although B&N is yet to formally unveil the e-reader, its key specs are no longer secret. The Nook GlowLight 4 Plus features a 7.8-inch flush front E Ink screen and 32GB storage.
The GlowLight 4 Plus supports audiobooks via the device’s headphone jack and Bluetooth audio. The e-reader also has a 300ppi monochrome display and a temperature-adjustable front light called GlowLight + Night Mode on Nook devices. It also has a touchscreen display and buttons for page navigation (up or down).
The listing also shows that the Nook GlowLight 4 Plus e-reader has a water-resistant design for enhanced durability. It is however not clear whether it comes with a USB-C port or a MicroUSB port. The first-generation GlowLight Plus was released in 2019. It had a 7.8-inch, 300ppi display, and IPX7 water-resistant rating. It also had a 3.5mm headphone jack and Bluetooth audio support, as with the new model. The refurbished model, as seen from its specs sheet, retained much of the features of the original model.
The new Nook GlowLight 4 Plus e-reader is priced at $199.99. On the other hand, the GlowLight 4 retails for $149.99. The new GlowLight 4 Plus is however listed in the retail platform as “Coming Soon”. The listing of the Nook GlowLight 4 Plus in one of B&N’s stores could imply its official launch may be imminent.
