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

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

Nxtpaper 14

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

Boox Note 5 in 2026

Boox note 3 user here. Very similar devices with same screen and hardware. Note 3 works like a charm still and despite having a larger device tab xc, i prefer note 3 for light comfy reads Can web browse and function as well as the newest devices in most respects. Not blazing fast but not so slow to

Comparing screen brightness at 0%, 50% and 100% in a room with normal lighting, there is almost no visible difference between 0% and 50% brightness in broad daylight. You can completely turn off front light when reading in the afternoon.

Here in Thailand there is a stationary / book store that carries Boox products. Unfortunately they have the Note Air 5 C but not on display, however a Go 7 color is out to be played with. Now the reality is the florescent lights are bright in the store so even without the front lights it's acceptabl

What's better for academics? Boox Tab X C or BOOX Go 10.3 (using Zotero & Obsidian)

I'm an academic deeply invested in Zotero and have a Note Air 3 C (previously owned a Tab Ultra C and Note 2), and the most useful workflow for me has been to use the ZotMoov plugin in Zotero desktop to send PDFs to my Boox device, read them and annotate them in the stock Neoreader app, then send th

reMarkable Paper Pro vs BOOX Note Air5 C for PhD/Postdoc?

If I were you I would go for a Boox Tab XC or a Boox Note Max. I've been using my NA3C for a few years now, and I can confidently say that it is really good for anything university related. It is very versatile, works well, and it is slow enough so that I don't get distracted. Even if Boox looks les

Best e-reader for a multi-column book?

You need size. 10 inches might work, but personally 13.3" like the Boox tab xc or the Boox note max would be a significantly better experience. If you can, scaling a printed copy of a page to the dimensions of whatever screen size you're looking at is your best way to get an idea of how well it will

TCL NXTPAPER Plus 11 vs TCL Note A1 NXTPAPER - why no Google Play Store support?

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

In my opinion the Boox Tab XC is the best color device for magazines. The only negative is the size is a little bulky but when you see the readability on a 13 inch screen vs a 10 inch screen there's no comparison. So, it depends on your use situation. If you want something easy to hold then the Note
