Nxtpaper A1 Note

I was excited about the A1 Note, but after the first concrete specs and impressions dropped, I can't help but feel like it is a NXTPaper tablet shoehorned into an e-reader-shaped package with an e-ink price tag slapped on it. I can't shake the suspicion that TCL looked at the Note Air 5C or Supernot

What a jungle! Help!

Personally I'd go for Boox Go10.3 instead of Viwoods ai paper, just cause of value for money. Hard to bargain with twice the price but I don't have Viwoods, so maybe. Otherwise yeah, the Booze note air 5C is the way. If OP is still rooting for RmPP, then make sure you're good with the gallery 3 flas

Quelle tablette choisir ?

Boox est de loin la marque de choix et la moins chère pour ce qu’elle propose. La boox go 10.3 (gen 1 seulement avec stylet wacom emr ils ont mis un stylet actif sur la nouvelle génération) est excellente pour tout ce qui est cité ou encore la note max plus grande. En couleur il y a la note air 5C é

Ask Me Anything About My E-Ink Tablet Collection

I don't think rM is best for a uni student because their reading software is too basic. Boox devices have a lot more config options for viewing PDFs. The Boox NoteAir5C would be a good shout (but I can't remember how it compares in price to the rMPP - I think its a bit cheaper, but its still quite e

Ipad or Boox for Sixth form student

You will enjoy your work and your reading much more on the Go 10.3 than on the iPad. It's not something you will regret buying. If you want to split the difference, you can get a Boox Note Air 5c. Also, if you need an LCD tablet for something, you can get a generic one for less than $100.

Help choosing a tablet to take notes?

In my opinion, the Boox Note Air5C is the perfect choice if you want it to have colors. All Boox tablets have the ability to write in color even if they have black and white screens and therefore their screen is unable to display them, meaning that they will be visible once you export the document t

Thoughts on remarkable?

Lots of better alternatives. Viwoods Aipaper, Viwoods Mini, Boox Note Air 5C, Boox Go 10.3 Lumi, and others from Bigme and Supernote. They all run Android, are more powerful, have better screens, allow you to use apps, and are generally better priced.

Looking for recommendations: Best 10-inch e-reader?

The brand new Boox Go 10.3 Gen II Lumi sounds excellent (I have my eye on it - have some gift cards in a local store I need to use at some point, so I’m waiting for it to become available here). It’s around $450 though I believe. If you want colour … I have no idea what’s good out there. Boox Note A
