3 Remote Control Page Turners for Comicbook Tablet Reading
I like being up-to-date with the times, but even I was surprised to find out that the remote control page turner existed. If you enjoy reading scanned comic books on computer tablets often, then you definitely need to consider buying this product.
Remote Control Page Turner
I am a comic book purist – I enjoy holding comic books in my hand. But even I enjoy reading digital comic books on laptops and computer tablets.
However, one of the worst things about reading scanned comic books on a computer tablet is turning the pages. You have to hold the tablet while swiping the pages, and sometimes the screen sensitivity is so high that you over-swipe.
Also, it is just awkward holding a table or balancing it on a stand and swiping the pages on a touchscreen. Additionally, if you hate getting smudges or fingerprints on your tablet, a remote control page-turner is a great way to solve that problem.
A remote control page-turner is basically a remote control device for a tablet that you can use to remotely turn the pages of an ebook or digital comic book without using your hands. Just set your tablet on a stand and the remote control page turner will digitally turn the pages so that you won’t have to touch the screen.
Even though it may sound indulgent, we are living in a world that progressively becoming more reliant on digital devices. Smudging a touch screen or blocking the screen with your fingers is the analog equivalent of wrinkling a physical comic book by holding it incorrectly.
Back then we set a comic book on a desk and read it to better appreciate its aesthetics. If you love reading scanned comic books with digital tablet, then a remote control page turner will help you appreciate aesthetics of scanned comic books without touching the tablet. (Almost as if you are reading the comic hands free on a desk)
On this list, you will find three affordable and user-friendly digital page-turners that you can use to turn the pages of scanned comic books on computer tablets hands-free.

Conclusion
You should only buy or gift remote control page turners for digital tablets if you are very keen on reading digital comic books. Even though I am a comic book purist and prefer physical comic books, I do occasionally read scanned comic books online.
Digital page turners can also be used to take pics remotely and scroll between apps – so if you are a tech geek, this product might be useful to you if you also read digital comics.
However, it may not be worth your time or finances to buy such products if you don’t regularly read digital comics.
