Xteink x4 — IF you have DRM-free book files and don’t need a front light. No touchscreen or other apps. Has buttons. Very tiny but yet very readable as long as you can handle like around maybe 20 point font and below. Boox Palma 2– can run apps like kobo and kindle, as well as take DRM-free files. T

For what you've described, the rMPP would work okay, but like you say battery isn't great - I think I only got around six hours before it needed a recharge. I liked the Viwoods AI Paper Mini for more portable note-taking, and the Supernote Nomad is also decent, however these are around 8", so not re

ohhhhhhh KEN. boy do I have a good list for you. Calendar (4.2) Add support for WebDAV/CalDAV VTODO synchronization, VEVENT is nice and all but honestly for me somewhat less useful Add support for the handwritten calendar memo for a day to be appended as an attachment to either VTODOs or VEVENTs USI

I wanted an 8-inch monochrome device without BSR, 8GBs RAM, and 128GB ROM :c I don't understand the reasoning behind giving 8GB RAM to a 6-inch device (Palma 2 Pro) but that's just me

Is your picture accurate to what you see with the naked eye? It looks like only the Palma 2 has a pleasant warm light. The Palma 2 Pro has an unpleasant red tint and the Palma P6 Pro doesn’t even look warm, although it does look good. I wonder how the Viwoods Reader compares in temperature.

The color screen on the Palma 2 Pro is terrible, I’m returning mine. The display is dark, grainy, and the battery barely lasts a day because the backlight has to stay on constantly. Without the light, the screen is practically unusable. This shows that color screen technology just isn’t ready for ev

I started with a nook, second hand, that crapped out after a year or so. Then came the kindle. I hated being locked into the Amazon ecosystem so I got a boox Palma 2. I loved it, but was scared to lose or damage it so it stays home. So I get an xteink x4 for taking on the town and it’s great! Finall

This is more of an aesthetics & functionality answer than a best-business-practices one (though I would also like to see more companies with Fairphone-esc business practices of course), but I've been really fixated on this same question lately and this is the answer I've been gravitating toward: Har

Boox Palma 2. It’s perfect. The viwoods has no warm light. The Boox Palma 2 pro is color which imo sucks on an Ereader (the screen is very dark grey vs a b&w device) X4 (xteink) is a good choice too but no frontlight at all and you need to have the actual book files to transfer to device (doesn’t ru

there's only one device from Boox with 8GB RAM, and it is ironically the Palma 2 Pro which is also their smallest. imo they should standardize on 8GB but this is a tricky market to make that argument.
