It's time to check the competition

I'm not quite at the point of leaving RM altogether, but I will agree that colored e-ink just doesn't seem like it's a very reliable point in its development. Having both the RM2 and RMPP (and using both regularly), it definitely seems like monochrome e-ink is the more robust of the two. Makes me wi

I want an ereader with alarge screen. Any suggestions on brand and model?

BOOX note max has a large clear screen and their Neoreadwr is awesome. Not sure about the dictionaries but they run on android.

my one page review of writing on the Go 10.3 Gen II

Well, I wish they implemented this on Palma 2 Pro. It might become a very good opponent to the RMPPM with this. Honestly, I didn't even consider buying it, but after each reviews I see, I keen to buy it. If I had seen this device earlier this year, I may not have even bought the Kindle Scribe 2025 (

What I Wished I Knew Before Buying Boox Note Max

Same old argument. Same response from BOOX. Not a hill for me to die on. Other companies do the same. Thinking any tech company is ethical is naive. How many of us use tech from a company that has actually been prosecuted for malfeasance and don't know/care? Baffled by this. What is your frame of re

StarNote app is by Onyx international ie related to Boox!?!

So I gave it a few minutes' test drive, and found a few things. Nothing that can't be debugged and cleaned up, if the Devs really wanted to. It's not ready for a public announcement that "It's compatible, hooray!" yet, but it's better than anything we've ever had. Notebooks created in Notes, exporte

Boox Tab X C or Note Max refresh soon? Android 13 is EOL.

Wait for the large format Supernote. I bought a Boox Note Max that has been abandoned only a year after launch. Ghosting issues are still a huge problem and it simply doesn't receive any updates.

BOOX Firmware V4.2 is here! Community-driven updates and a new thread for feedback.

An update to the Note Max would certainly be welcome! I hope they do release one soon. I do wish they would or could address the ghosting issue. It's the worst of my Boox devices. Not unusable but still it should be fixable.

Need opinions on why I should choose the reMarkable Paper Pro over the Supernote Manta

Software and writing feel aside (which can be highly subjective) . I’d say it comes down to mostly three factors, the resolution, size, and colour If you want the highest resolution: Supernote manta (300ppi) >>RMPP at 229 ppi, the difference in resolution/clarity between the two is quite perceptible

Help me find my dream e-ink tab?

Boox note Max is probably what you are looking for. 13.3 inch, black and white, paper like handwriting and you can use any keyboard with Bluetooth (although you can buy their keyboard cover). It doesn’t have a front light

Is Boox Note Air 5C any good?

ghosting with lingering artifacts issues, but something that could be resolved with the next update It's been over 3 months and Boox Note Max users haven't received any update for ghosting. Never assume an update is coming.
