Tab XC in 2026
Quite honestly the security concerns are way overblown in my opinion. The question is does the device work well on the current operating system and I can tell you that it does. It's unlikely that Boox will release a newer version for at least a couple years. My guess is that with the success of the

Thoughts on Boox color go 7 gen 2
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

[April 2026 Megathread] UX Feedback & Feature Improvements
Feature 1: I use the Notes app on my Boox Tab XC for a mix of handwritten notes and pasted text. When I'm in any pen mode, the two-finger pan gesture works perfectly can move around the canvas freely. But the moment a text box is active (e.g. after I paste something), the two-finger parn completely

[April 2026 Megathread] UX Feedback & Feature Improvements
Hello Boox :) My feature request: Feature: Export searchable handwritten notes as PDF The Friction: When I export my handwritten notes, they lose the ability to be searched on my computer or my iPad. Your Suggestion: Amazon Kindle has the option to export a searchable pdf with my handwritten notes.

From reading the posts here it seems that the Remarkable is not what I should be purchasing...
well, first of all, nearly everything is cheaper than reMarkable, which helps. generally for someone with your needs I recommend a Boox Tab XC or Note Max. especially if you are a big Obsidian fan, tho, I lean towards the Supernote Manta, because there's a really great integration for Supernote with

A solid month of use
What I like about android E readers is the capacity to take over all other devices. Boox is a good representation of this capacity. I’ve reduced almost all dependence on other devices since purchasing the Boox tab xc. While it cannot substitute laptop, with the capability to use word, read all kinds

I'm an academic. Get something that's large enough to display full page PDFs at a comfortable size. You don't really want to be messing around panning and zooming on eink, given refresh rates. That means one of Boox Note Max (13 inch), Boox Tab XC (13"), or Remarkable Paper Pro (11.8"). Boox devices

2025 kindle scribe colorsoft vs 2024 remarkable paper pro, I want a device for note-taking, reading colored comics and reading eBooks mostly textbooks in .pdf files. Which device should I get?
I know its more expensive but in your case ill take the boox tab xc. Bigger screen for your textbooks, and android.

Is there an enote device with updates?
Well, literally you can't move notes between different brands of devices. Nothing like that exists in hardware world I mean.So it is your choice whether you are tied to hardware or software. You can use Samsung notes, Microsoft OneNote or Apple's whatever notes they have. There's also notion, Everno

Thinking buying a color e-ink tablet.
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
