What would a solarpunk smartphone with today's tech be like?
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

Made a video on my experience with the Minimal Phone if you're contemplating buying.
After seeing countless reactions to the MP01, so much of the user's feelings toward the device are dependent on their expectations going in and what they hope to use the device for. 1st - Minimal Phone uses a generic e-paper panel, not the proprietary (and more costly) e-ink. It is lower quality tha

My experience using the Hibreak Pro Color (2 weeks and counting)
Same here, writing from my Bigme HiBreak Pro BW as a daily driver. Love it. I can't use modern screens because of blue light, flickering and dithering.

Making do
The Palma 2 Pro feels more polished and reading-oriented with a color screen and stylus support, while the HiBreak Pro line is more versatile as a phone plus reader hybrid. If reading and annotations are your priority, Palma 2 Pro edges ahead. If you want full daily-phone capability in an E Ink devi

Switch to E-ink phone
I think Bigme HiBreak Pro, Boox Palma 2 and ViWoods aipaper reader are the three only good options

Boox Palma 2 Pro as Phone
Talk and text are hit or miss for me even after the update. Data has been mostly reliable. I'd be wary if you are getting it if you absolutely need SMS and phone calling as essentials. The phone and quality of the color are one of the best I've used, and eye strain is minimal so I am reluctantly usi

Any updates on Hisense A10?
Lol, no offense but I already owned a bigme phone in the past (HiBreak Pro) those things are atrocious. One of the buggiest, most broken pieces of techs I have ever used in my life. And the company behind it doesn’t even care to fix them. There are some bugs (like the android auto dpi bug) present s

Anyone use an E-Ink device for maps on hiking / cycling trips?
I tried bigme hibreak color just recently and was disappointed. I was fed up with glare on the iphone screen and battery issues. Like others have said, the dream of it lasting weeks is only with use as a very static e-reader. I even wrote a python script that would scrub tiles from open streetmap re

Which E-Ink Phone should i buy? (Advice wanted)
Bigme Hibreak Pro. I've had it a year, it works great (there were a lot of bugs in the beginning, but not anymore), it does everything a regular smartphone does but without being distracting. It's also a great e-reader and easy on the eyes. I prefer the b&w over the color because the screen is nicer

HiBreak Pro Color vs. Boox Palma 2 Pro: Does it actually work as a phone replacement?
I've been DD the bigme hibreak pro color for about 5 months. You can still mindlessly scroll, trust me. But, it's slightly less engaging, and more annoying and slower than a normal phone. Anything you want to do takes a little longer. You have to baby it. Based on other reports, It could break at an
