I will preface this by saying that I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the Boox, but I do understand the bad reviews you’re seeing. It all comes down to what you are expecting and what you’re willing to learn. If you are coming from a Kindle (and I assume a Kobo) you may be expecting any eread...

My latest iteration of my writerdeck is named in honor of Octavia Butler. It is a iPad Mini 6 mated to an Epomaker EP64 keyboard with Drop DCX White on Black keycaps and a custom designed, 3d printed case intended to balance form with function. In the back is a swiveling handle and usb-c charging po...

Managed to drop my Boox Page onto concrete from about three feet and somehow only broke the charging port. I think of eInk screens as so fragile but it worked fine until the battery ran down to 0% and it turned off. With no way to charge it back up I thought I'd need to get a new one entirely. I cou...

Don’t forget that Boox let Page 7 languish with Carta 1200 after Go Color 7 was released. For me the reason is simple. Money. They can charge more for color screen whereas the innovation in bw e-ink has pretty much peaked. Just look at the comparison between Carta 1200 and 1300 devices and they are ...

I purchased a Boox Page and now buy books through this site.It feels great to be supporting independent booksellers and not Amazon

I can't speak on this from an anxiety standpoint, but I can vouch for it as far as motivation and dopamine are concerned. I've been great at not bringing my phone to bed for around 5 years now (I find it makes my sleep awful) and I always leave it in my study, while using an old school alarm in the ...

You need to spend some time learning your ereader just a few minutes on the settings page is all you need, here is a clip of my Boox Go 7, from standby to ready. using Bookfusion Clip Not sure how much faster you need it to be.

The only one I would say to avoid is the nook. The software has always been mediocre. I chose to go with a Kobo libra colour after watching reviews. Waiting for it to arrive now. For me, it was the library integration, the UI design, and the page turn buttons. I do like the idea of readers like Boox...

I've been a Dramione reader for years but just started hoarding last year....currently at 14,487 downloaded. It's an addiction...can't stop the madness! I have everything cataloged in Calibre. I have a Boox Palma as my dedicated Dramione ereader, use Raindrop.io and GoodLinks as my TBR link savers, ...

I had the same fears as you and thought about buying a Meebook M8 with Android 14. Nonetheless, I still bought a Boox Page. The main "issue" are security patches, but seeing as it's an e-ink reader, it's not really an issue. The second issue is that in a couple of years (maybe 5 years+), some apps m...
