The screens are more 1992 than 2025. Limited color space, slow refresh on the screen and the like. Any e-ink device will look deficient if compared to a modern tablet screen. The benefits are longer screen time and eyes that still feel great after a long reading session. The older tablet designs tha

For drawing Brad Colbow does good YouTube reviews and sometimes covers eink. For example (this the the NA4C, NA5C just came out): https://youtu.be/181nRu2MCHY?si=pqCUSI5BHVAJteos In general, for colour your main choices are Boox or Remarkable. Assuming you want at least 10 inch, there's the Boox Not

I understand what you want. The paper writing feel screen protector on the Note devices ruins the clarity of the text, much more than what the anti-kaleido fans claim about the color filter. I had a Note Air 2 where the screen protector had a small scratch, when I removed it the clarity and brightne

Electrical engineering student here, I would highly recommend going for an android based device. I use my device every day, and I find myself constantly going into my campus to download files, problem guides, PDFs, slides, etc. this would be miles more difficult with a remarkable.

I've owned and do currently own several Boox devices. To me you first need to determine if color is important to you. If not my recommendation would be the Go 10.3 or Note Max, since you do a lot of PDFs. However, if not having a frontlight is a deal breaker I would say go for the Note Air 4C or the

I also prefer reading in a two pane layout since it more resembles reading a real book... however just for reading my Boox eInk tablets (Imostly use the 10.3" Note5 and 13.3" Tab XC) still do a better job than the NXTPAPER 11 Plus, especially outdoors. The strength of the NXTPAPER is that it can do

I just watched another review on youtube and the UI on the Note A1 looks very similar to what Boox is doing on their eInk tablets. I'll now order the NXTpaper 11 Plus from Amazon and compare it with the Boox Tab XC. There are some very good reviews on reddit that compare the 11 Plus with the Note Ai

I've been using a Hibreak smartphone as my sole and daily driver for over a year now. First the Hibreak color classic then the HBP color. It works great. Try going from the Hibreak classic to the Hibreak Pro and you would be thankful to have this great little device. Same for me with LCD/OLED screen

I own an iPad and a Boox Tab XC. I utilize the Tab XC at night since I've observed that it takes me much longer to fall asleep when I use my iPad.

Note air 4C would be great, It's a 10.3 inch device Since you would require to read a lot you could have a look at the latest boox Tab XC which is a 13.3 inch device (on the pricier end) If you are fine with a b/w device , Boox note Max 13.3" would be the finest one out (it's the b/w version of tab
