Palma 2 Pro, P6 Pro, Palma 2 - Warm light comparison
Is your picture accurate to what you see with the naked eye? It looks like only the Palma 2 has a pleasant warm light. The Palma 2 Pro has an unpleasant red tint and the Palma P6 Pro doesn’t even look warm, although it does look good. I wonder how the Viwoods Reader compares in temperature.

Me, watching all the beautiful e-readers here and wanting to buy more, when I already have one
I started with a nook, second hand, that crapped out after a year or so. Then came the kindle. I hated being locked into the Amazon ecosystem so I got a boox Palma 2. I loved it, but was scared to lose or damage it so it stays home. So I get an xteink x4 for taking on the town and it’s great! Finall

Cab anyone reccomend a hand sized eink reader, with buttons?
Xteink x4 — IF you have DRM-free book files and don’t need a front light. No touchscreen or other apps. Has buttons. Very tiny but yet very readable as long as you can handle like around maybe 20 point font and below. Boox Palma 2– can run apps like kobo and kindle, as well as take DRM-free files. T

What would a solarpunk smartphone with today's tech be like?
This is more of an aesthetics & functionality answer than a best-business-practices one (though I would also like to see more companies with Fairphone-esc business practices of course), but I've been really fixated on this same question lately and this is the answer I've been gravitating toward: Har

Anyone else kinda disappointed by the Boox “launch”?
I wanted an 8-inch monochrome device without BSR, 8GBs RAM, and 128GB ROM :c I don't understand the reasoning behind giving 8GB RAM to a 6-inch device (Palma 2 Pro) but that's just me

Palma2 Pro, Palma2, and Viwoods Reader
The color screen on the Palma 2 Pro is terrible, I’m returning mine. The display is dark, grainy, and the battery barely lasts a day because the backlight has to stay on constantly. Without the light, the screen is practically unusable. This shows that color screen technology just isn’t ready for ev

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 (

Does Palma pro makes your eyes tired?
Please be just pure, evil troll, please... Basically using your eyes tires them. Not to mention reading high contrast pen/text on paper in dim-lit place, do not use paper to get your eyes feel refreshed :p. Please refrain from believing in everything that any LLM outputs. Palma 2 pro has an rink scr

Small e-reader, which one?
Boox Palma 2. It’s perfect. The viwoods has no warm light. The Boox Palma 2 pro is color which imo sucks on an Ereader (the screen is very dark grey vs a b&w device) X4 (xteink) is a good choice too but no frontlight at all and you need to have the actual book files to transfer to device (doesn’t ru
