Libra 2 discontinued, debating Libra Color

I want the Kobo management to see this: I am literally choosing to buy Onyx Boox Go 7 BW today because Libra is not available in BW. If there was a bw Libra I would have 100% bought the Libra.

If XTeink decides to make a bigger device, I think this is the ideal size

There are so many great 6-7" e-ink readers already. Not saying xteink couldnt make their version of such a device a great one but to me the size of x4 and x3 is what really differentiates them from the competition. I have the Boox Go 7" and the x4 and to me that's the perfect combo - Boox at home an

What is so bad about Boox ereaders?

So I have to say that this was not true for my Boox Go 7. I came on board expecting to have to install a bunch of apps, or at least replace what I presumed was going to be a crappy ereader/ui.... But no, the Boox Go 7 BW out of the box just functions as an ereader. There's no installing anything unl

I want to get my wife an reader but she uses so many different apps/sites to read. What's my best option?

boox go 7, but don’t get the color one. go for the black and white always (unless she reads manga, then ask her which she would prefer after reading reviews because the color is nice, but it’s not worth losing some quality unless that’s the majority of what she reads)

AO3 on my kindle

I got an Android ereader over a Kindle/Kobo specifically so I can read AO3 on a good browser lol. I love my Boox Go 7. It has page turn buttons that work on webpages!

What is so bad about Boox ereaders?

I came from the kindle to Boox Go 7 in October and it shipped with a stable UI, a good reader, and it's all integrated. You wouldn't even know it's Android if you didn't look for it.

The best e-reader for danmei?

I use a Boox Go 7, but any of the android e-readers could probably work just as well! On mine I use a light weight browser (eink-bro or fennec) for web hosted translations. You can enable Reader Mode at the top of the search bar to trim down the website page so it's just text and no extra webpage el

Idk why people keep complaining boox is complicated and it takes time to get used to it

I just got the same device and I love it! With that said, I understand why people warn about complications: If you're new to e-readers AND android, then this device is not just a unbox and immediately start reading. You have to learn the navigation, android OS, how to get books, how to side load (BO

Does this ereader exist?

Boox Go 7 BW meets all of these. I love the physical buttons and you don’t have to side load anything as it supports Google play store natively! Oh annotation typing would be the only criteria it doesn’t meet but typing on ebook is never a great experience because of input delays (though go7 is pret
