Sorry, still stewing a bit over yesterday's AMA
I don't think the team that did the AMA has much to do with pricing. But yes, the whole thing was a bit underwhelming. "You don't understand, epub support is actually really difficult to implement" – and meanwhile I'm sitting here reading epubs on my tiny Xteink X4, running a custom firmware mostly

To those of you who have 2 e-readers, why do you keep both and what do you use each one for?
I have a Kindle Scribe and an Xteink x4, I use the Scribe at home and travel with the x4 as it’s more portable. I don’t know what I would do with 2 readers of the same size/model though.

Xteink X3 Live Now
This may be a bit of a rant but here’s my perspective: The product XTEINK are busy selling is a small e-ink screen, not a book reader. The device is really cool because it’s minimalistic and pocketable but in order to be a book reader it lacks: decent epub rendering capability: it improved recently

Nice small damn e-reader to read your faves when waiting in line.
Xteink X4. It's taking the e-reader community by storm, albeit a small storm, maybe just a gust. The original firmware is okay, but the community firmware is a lot better, it's called Crosspoint.

If XTeink decides to make a bigger device, I think this is the ideal size
There are so many great 6-7" e-ink readers already. Not saying xteink couldnt make their version of such a device a great one but to me the size of x4 and x3 is what really differentiates them from the competition. I have the Boox Go 7" and the x4 and to me that's the perfect combo - Boox at home an

my two favorite digital minimalist devices
even better than a kindle, its an xteink x4. it’s pretty limited compared to a kindle but it’s perfect for simply reading and also the perfect size 😍

What is the absolute best budget e-reader by tier? Looking for the "cheapest you'd actually recommend"
Not sure why people rave about the Xteink X4. It's an interesting enthusiast's device, but it doesn't even have a frontlight. I wouldn't recommend it as Baby's First E-Reader. Clara BW is a really great choice for the price. You can get a GlowLight 4 used for a really great price, but you have to tw

Please give us X4 with frontlight
The OBook5 is the same form factor as the X4 (although its about two X4s thick) with a front light https://comparisontabl.es/e-readers/?product1=Obook+5&product2=Xteink+X4#sbs Owning both, I still prefer my XTEINK devices because they are noticeably lighter (although the Obook is nowhere near what I
