What’s a tiny design flaw in an everyday object that quietly annoys you every single time you use it?

I swapped to an Onyx Boox from Kindle so i could take notes (school + work + old) and omg I audibly gasped when I saw both the power button AND charging port on the side so you could rest it upright while charging... never going back!

Musnap Neo C impressions - 24 hours later

Also: My use case: Using Libby, Kindle, Nook apps to read ebooks. I loaded some books with my computer just to see how they look on it and it looked decent. I am primarily offline unless I’m returning or checking out a book on Libby. When connecting to my Google account, the device appears as “ Atil

Not today, e-waste! Boox sent me a new USB-C charging board for $6 out of warranty, can't believe it still works

Kudos to Onyx Boox for providing good customer service. I liked it a lot.

I got a Bigme b6 and it made me realize how good and high quality my Boox air 5c is

You are comparing apples to oranges. You can't compare a $180 device to a $550 one. The build quality is fine on the b6 it doesn't feel cheap at all, In fact it feels really solid. I don't like how they made rounder corners for comfort but then made all the edges sharp. But that doesn't make it feel

Let's talk about Kobo and Kindle

I like this question. My bests have been PocketBook Verse Lite and Boox Go 6. I am curious about the Kobo Clara as well. The Verse Lite is my best because of all of the formats it takes (including NetGalley ARCs), battery life, dark mode and it supports multiple library cards. The Boox Go 6 is a run

Best b/w ereader in 2026 with focus only on reading?

I skipped over Boox Go 6 because of all the apps and stuff they have on there. Not my cup of tea, the fewer features the better lol.

Trying to get out of the kindle ecosystem

I’m obsessed with my Boox! OP- the go 6 is a great little device that I feel is reasonably priced. (It hopefully will get refreshed this year)

I finally destroyed the cursed "I'm like a swan" Elephant on Boox Go 6 (Root + LSPosed + CorePatch)

Haha, yes! That’s how much I love my Boox Go 6. 😂 The hardware is amazing, so I just couldn't let that one software annoyance ruin the experience.

Curious just curious

I don't know how to explain it other than it feels like reading a real book. There is something about the screen not emitting light. It just feels natural to me and I will always prefer to read books on e-ink screens. The quality of e-ink and specifically on monochrome screens went so much better in

Is there an E-Reader that...?

You'll want an Android ereader, eg the Boox or Meebook brands. I think they all have frontlights but you can just not turn it on. For budget friendly, maybe the Boox Go 6?
