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

To those of you who have 2 e-readers, why do you keep both and what do you use each one for?
I bought my very first Kindle, a basic 2019 during the pandemic. If has been with me through everything, work, medical school, hospital duties. It’s my solace during those moments that I needed to dissociate. Then in 2024, someone tried to sell me a brand new Boox Page (sealed) for 50% off because t

Which e-reader is best for AO3?
Are you OK with just downloading and transferring files to it, or do you want to read online as well? Do you care about having a large well-organised library? I have a Boox Go 7, which runs Android (still eink though) and allows downloading apps. Browsing AO3 on a browser works very well (and page t

Getting my GF a Kindle for Christmas
Colour is the only difference between the Clara Color and Clara BW. Libra only has a colour version and has a pencil for notes, dropbox/cloud stuff, buttons to turn pages. A lot of people in the kobo sub frigging hate the colour versions. It's basically an extra layer over the black and white screen

Switching from reMarkable → BOOX Note Air5 C — looking for tips & advice
Are you using ChatGPT to write Reddit posts? I hope I don't answer a bot… I have a Note Air4 C which is probably more or less the same as the Air5 C. I shortly tested the original Remarkable and the new one with color. The Air4 C and the first Remarkable feel pretty much the same. Quite paper-like e

E-reader for a medical student who wants to read medical textbooks and occasional other books
I would advise something you can install an app like google play books on (an android like boox) as if you have this app it synchronises across all your devices so you can read a page or two on phone/laptop/tablet whenever you have a few minutes spare. And also a 10" or up if you can as medical text

My Palma pro came
I have both a P2 and P2P. For reading B&W books I think the P2 is superior but I usually use the P2P for one simple reason. The volume buttons on the P2P have been moved to the left side of the device. I prefer to hold the device in my left hand and my left thumb rests perfectly on the volume down b

Anyone who owns Palma and also a Kindle (not the Scribe), how do they compare and which one makes you read more?
I actually use them pretty equally, but in different contexts. For reading in bed or at home, I use my Kindle Paperwhite because I like the layout and larger screen. Whenever I’m heading out for the day, I slip my Boox Palma 2 in my bag and read on the subway, over lunch, etc. When I’m reading Kindl

Kobo or kindle
Reasons I prefer Kindle: Whisper sync and cloud saved books (which include personal collection not just Amazon) Cloud saves annotations on all books personal or purchased. Whispersync to bounce between different devices and not lose your place. Hardware is better made. Feels sturdier. With Prime (wh

remarkable Paper Pro - worth getting?
So I've been doing the "writing" thing for a while on paper. Been using a daily planner (poorly of late) since the last century, have a dozen notebooks I write in because I like them separated by topic, etc. I tried to switch over to Boox devices and failed. Can't tell you why. Tried again with the
