I believe all Boox 6-7’’ devices have a frontlight (which you can turn off or adjust as wanted, of course). FWIW, Boox Page is an older model - the current one that succeeded it last year is the Boox Go 7. There’s also the new Boox Go 6 Gen II if you want smaller and without buttons, but the Go 7 is

Which e-book reader is the most suitable?
Boox are great (I have two) but can be the opposite of simple, LOL. :D Anyway, I’ve looked at the stores and it seems you get very straightforward DRM-free files and even a choice of formats, so you’re in a much easier position than people in most countries. :D I don’t much like supporting Amazon th

AI features being pushed/hard to disable on e-ink tablets/phones.
I've owned a Viwoods Mini for about 6 months now and have never once used any of its "AI" features. They just aren't useful for the most part, and at worst they give an opportunity for data leakage I never asked for. The reason I got it was that it was a portable device with high-quality writing, a

First E-Reader, help pick!
I don’t understand why new ones are so expensive also have something easier on the eyes. You’ve answered your own issue there - they’re expensive because of the screen technology used. All mainstream companies use screens made by one company, it’s a monopoly and a considerably smaller market than LC

What e-ink notebook for reading and taking notes 6/7/8 inches?
Came here to report that I just got my Boox Go6 Gen II and I was pleasantly surprised how the writing experience is so much better than the Leaf 5+! There some sort of coating or microetching in the screen that gave it a bit more friction. I also noticed less latency and was pretty accurate with my

Which device would suit my needs?
I use the boox go 6 (gen ii)! It's a bit small for manga for a lot of people, but personally I don't mind. Shonen jump, viz, and crunchyroll manga all work fine for me and they're smooth once you get over the learning curve of an e ink tablet :)
