Xteink X4 gen 2 and X4 Pro leak from Aliexpress.

Exactly this. I'm so smitten with my X3 for the exact reasons you mention here. It's a simple, cheap device that has a very focused mission and it performs that mission incredibly well. Surprisingly well, almost unbelievably well. I'm also wondering about the why of adding these features. I would as

xteink announces collaboration with third party firmware "Crosslink" on Rednote

As a Chinese-speaking user, I feel compelled to clarify one point: the only real connection between Crosslink and Crossink is that they both originated as branches of Crosspoint. Crosslink was developed based on crosspoint_chinesetype (https://github.com/icannotttt/crosspoint-chinesetype) and the co

X4 Converter Update - Multi-file support, Arabic, Hyphenation & more

I hope the XTeink team has reached out to you, because your converter is genuinely game changing for their efforts to break into the international market. They would do well to recognize it and support development of this tool. (If they’re reading this: you should send this person an X3 to help them

Thoughts on the X3 after using it for 2 weeks

I first chose the X4 because of the USB C socket. I didn't give enough attention to the many pictures of broken screens and only used a half case, not a flip case. After having it for two months and reading five books on it, more than in the previous five years, I rolled on it in bed and broke it. A

Are really phone sized ereaders worth it? Can people use it daily and finish books in a regular basis?

i have read so many books on my smaller ereaders (former palma owner, own both the Xteink X4 and X3, as well as an Obook5). so long as you're okay with reading on the smaller screen, it's great to have something that's always in your pocket / bag / purse / on you in some way. Especially with the X4

Questions about Xteink?

I’m going to chime in with a sentiment I’ve seen in the comments already, just to add another voice requesting it: better build quality and a frontlight. I’ve been very lucky to receive two working devices (out of two), an x3 and x4, but I am concerned on button longevity. They feel noticeably ‘loos

How do you sync X3 with your main ereader?

Okay, so I went down this road and wanted to find a (relatively) clean solution that may take a bit of effort to set up, but is fairly elegant once established. I should start by saying, there is no out-of-the-box way to sync the XTEink devices with a stock Kindle as Amazon's "whisper sync" is locke

XT V 5.6.17 Overseas Firmware Update

Hi! I've taken a quick look around with my X4 and my X3. I'm very happy to see image support on the international firmware! I've tried tinkering a bit with the font converter. I'll try it a bit more to tinker around with the options, but I did notice that the "Download" button doesn't seem to be wor

Is this the end of the interest in this and future devices?

It is for me. Was planning on buying another X3, but now after learning this is the way XTEink is going, then that's it for me. These are tinkering eReaders, locking them down is BS.

X3 owners running vCodex - how is your experience?

I use vcodex on my x3 and it works really well. I also like to nerd out on the stats and I think they're accurate enough. The xteinks aren't a good solution for down to the minute accuracy anyway. I don't think the performance is that much different than crossink, so I'd only suggest changing if you
