For what you've described, the rMPP would work okay, but like you say battery isn't great - I think I only got around six hours before it needed a recharge. I liked the Viwoods AI Paper Mini for more portable note-taking, and the Supernote Nomad is also decent, however these are around 8", so not re

You need to stop buying ereaders from companies that sell books. Buy an ereader based on Android and put Kobo and Kindle apps (and Libby, etc.) on it. You can also use them to listen to audiobooks. For instance, I own over 1300 Kindle books and have never owned a Kindle device. I have a few dozen Ko

This agrees with what other reviewers are saying. I am quite surprised they managed to do such a good job. Is this a case of necessity being the mother of invention? At least it seems like Boox is responding in a conscientious manner to a situation forced on them from the outside, and not taking the

You didn't like the 4C so there was no way the 5C would ever change your mind. A lot of people like the Honda Civic, but I hate how rough it is on pavement. We all have things we like or don't like. Kaleido 3 requires the frontlight to be on to at least 50% brightness for me in all scenarios except

I had my AI paper for six months and I never experienced a single crash. It was also the whitest screen I’ve ever experienced and it was flexible so there’s no risk of shattering. There may be some software bugs like any other device I would say the supernote is the most stable however, I find the V

We should appreciate the fact that they keep updating their software. It builds trust - unlike other companies ditching their products after a short time. But yes, I hope to see to the AiPaper with Frontlight soon! Maybe even a Viwoods monitor in the future. This Highly depends on the eink panel man

I have the BOOX Note Air 5C and the ViWoods AiPaper, which I hope is a fair comparison to help you. If OneNote is your main driver, the AiPaper does integrate more cleanly. I think it also feels closer to writing first and syncing second, rather than managing a full Android stack. Notes flow into On

AiPaper will be the better choice if you’d like to use the calendar as your central hub of activity. Every note you create or edit will be linked to the date. I think this is a pretty nifty feature. Also if you want direct access to the Google play store (you have to enable it which can be frustrati
