Im genuinely upset.

Iİ own an onyx boox note air4c. I carry it with a cover put in a protective zipped case. Double protection. Seems bulky but the best way to save them. These are expensive and fragile devices.

HELP ME CHOOSE!

100% kobo. Its cheaper than the boox and in all honesty I think a better quality product. I had a boox note air 4c and it stopped charging (not a good look for all other product lines.) Kobo is repairable, boox is not. To get a black and white device that costs more than a color device is honestly s

Which one to choose? Kobo Libra Colour or Boox Go 7 Series

For extensive notes, I don't think these two are great options for you, OP. They're great e-readers, but it looks like you want a device more for note-taking with the added benefit of being an ereader. Boox would be the way to go vs Kobo simply because Boox is more of an open system since it's Andro

Is it worth to get Na5c over Na4c?

Only for Android 15 is it worth it. Android 13 is from 2022 and 15 is from the end of 2024. In terms of OS support, you are guaranteed at least 2 additional years (Android 16 is just beginning to be implemented) so, for this alone, it is worth it. Also, let's not forget that BOOX only guarantees 3 y

Whoops

You are not alone! On day 3 owning new Air 4C I put the reader into bag, hang the bag on the chair not realizing the bag strap is longer than the chair. So bag ends up hanging but also partially on the floor. I move the chair so one of the legs goes over the bag. Not noticing that I sit on the chair

BOOX Palma 2: When Support Decides ‘External Force’ Without Evidence

I found my first Boox note air 4c having similar issues and Boox claimed it’s my fault that a pressure was placed on the item. I didn’t, the device was right in my bag and no other things in it. Luckily I bought my device from amazon and they agreed to return and refund. Since then I learned the les

Oh boy, I did a thing. After 24 hours of discovering the phone, I'm hooked!

I'd love to have an e-ink phone but the screens are so fragile (RIP Boox Note Air 4C...idk how your screen broke, but I'm still sad it happened). I'm going to pick up a TCL NxtPaper 70 Pro if they ever release here in the US as sort of a happy medium between usability and eye comfort.

Air4 C or Air5 C

There doesn’t seem to be any love from Boox for the Note Air 4C. They pushed out the 4.1 firmware with some annoying issues months ago, and rather than fixing them they released the 5C instead. I wouldn’t recommend anyone buying the 4C at the moment. Sadly enough, because the hardware is still prett

Has anyone used the XpPen Magic Note pad? What is it like in comparison to e-ink devices like the Tab X C or NA5C?

I don't have the XP Pen, but I have the Ugee Trio Pad (it's a rebranded TCL NxtPaper 14). It uses the NxtPaper screen tech which is a matte screen coating partnered with some different screen modes--one that reduces color saturation ala color e-ink and another that mimics black and white e-ink. IMO

How many e ink devices do you have??

I do agree that these e-ink devices are expensive. At some point, I was thinking of getting both e-ink lol, one for reading and one just for taking notes/read pdf The only thing that I worry about boox is the Android version, and they release products way too fast, which mean note air 4c will become
