Is there a reason outside of being Amazon that Kindles are disliked in this sub (US specific)?
I just sold my Scribe - which is a nice piece of hardware - and I'm totally thrilled about it and will explain why. I have a Viwoods and Boox reader, and had a Meebook 7" that was priced below the Kindle Paperwhite and was so much more useful, especially the buttons. Kindles are not e-book readers.

New version 3.9.3 (beta).. Looks really promising!
Oooh. This looks exciting!! I’m not signed up for beta. I keep meaning to do so but forget. Can’t wait for this update. I wonder when they’ll bring in sync across devices. It’s kind of funny to see and use all of this tech. I was born back before computers, mobiles and when tv was black and white (i

New eReader. Between the Boox go 7, Bigme B7 and Kobo Libra Color
If you want something between 6–8 inches and you’re planning to read a lot, use Libby/Hoopla, and do some audiobooks, I’d go with the BOOX Go 7. It’s the best mix of e-ink screen quality, portability, and flexibility since it runs full Android and handles the library apps well. If you ever decide yo

E-ink for typing?
Any Android e-ink tablet will give you an on-screen keyboard like an iPad. From what I own, the ViWoods AiPaper is probably the closest fit: no front light (so easier on the eyes), simple UI, and you can just type in any Android app. If you want smaller, the BOOX Palma Pro is a nice “mini” option, b

Before I hit that BUY button...
tldr; RTFM For those less informed, Google Play installation is an OPTION. Some don't want it, especially since it will consume power in the background and won't use it for more than it's basic installed apps. It took me about 2 minutes to get Play installed and done. I haven't had any issue with no

Let's talk about Kobo and Kindle
I went Kindle Paperwhite (11th gen I believe) -> Kobo Clara Colour -> Boox Palma 2 -> Viwoods AI Paper Reader Colour. Kindle is a very open the box and ready to go kind of device, love it but don't necessarily love being tied to Amazon. Kobo is a little more techy, smaller, and lighter. Love it but

Amazing, But Unintuitive
Thanks for sharing this. I think many of us here can relate to that "figuring it out" phase. In fact, I now own all three Viwoods devices – the AiPaper, the Mini, and the Reader – but my path here was anything but linear. I have gone back and forth between different systems more times than I would l

Update from Viwoods on the Reader Front Light
They were a bit more specific in the two emails I got from them and I am also disappointed. First, they replied: We do have a plan to adjust the minimum light of the AiPaper Reader; however, this plan is still under evaluation, and the new version has not yet entered formal production. Therefore, th

8-Inch E-Ink Tablet for Mixed Use: Must have Portability AND Open App Support (Kindle/Libby)
In my opinion, the product that best fits this description is the AiPaper mini by Viwoods. It's beautifully built (I have the large model, but the small one is coming soon), and it has a customizable interface where you can set up your library, notebooks, and memos. Otherwise, just pretend the Andro

Was about to buy a remarkable 2....
My use case was close to yours. As in handwriting notes and having a million yellow stickies and lost scraps of paper. I love my Viwoods ai paper. It’s fantastic and so lovely to write on! And you can create folders to keep notes in and you can search your notes later It was a bit life changing for
