You could look into the Boox Air 4C and 5C. Make sure to look up reviews because Boox devices can have quirks and you cannot expect updates. In general I would recommend going with a 10 inch screen or larger for those types of books.

Boox hardware is being seriously let down by the software. I have 3 premium Boox devices and can no longer give them the benefit of the doubt anymore (Tab X, Note Max, Air 4C). My Note Max felt abadoned within 4 months of release. Software is also non-inutitive and really not enjoyable to use.

Nope. I don't think any of the newer large BW boox e-readers have a front light. I decided I would just give in and get a color ereader (note air 4c) but it's just not as good for manga and I returned it. I was pretty happy with the software though, and I would happily get something like the one OP

I have a Note Air 4c. I work in a tech retail store and we have the Remarkables on display - having tested both I can't say I felt that the texture of the screen on the Remarkable was any better than on the Boox which has a pre-applied matte screen layer (which I believe is true for the 5c as well).

Look for Boox products, it's android on It. You can instal e-ink Bro to have a browser mad for e-ink. I have an air 4C and it is fine for online article reading

Iİ own an onyx boox note air4c. I carry it with a cover put in a protective zipped case. Double protection. Seems bulky but the best way to save them. These are expensive and fragile devices.

Bigme devices have got quite a bit better in recent years but there's still software issues and they've got a slightly shady reputation as a company. One of the reasons you won't find many reviews is that they've asked for zero-criticism reviews in exchange for payment or free devices (at least acco

I use the mobile app to read, but I own a Boox Note Air 4c, which is an Android tablet that has a color epaper screen. I very much recommend it! The Note Air 4c is quite big, which means you can have two columns besides each other just like on the iPad. There are smaller Boox tablets, which are comp

I picked up a Boox Note Air 4c since i mostly read comics/manga. I honestly don't see a need for anything else unless I pick up regular text.

Boox Hulk™. OMG, that cracked me up. I was thinking the same thing. All dude does is work out and make Boox videos from time to time. I want that job. Great insights. I'm trying to decide on my first Boox device and not sure if I want the Note Air 4C or the 5C. Of course I want the newest device but
