    After hearing so many good things for e ink from James I got myself a kobo sage for reading books and manga a while ago. I was socked by how far the tech has progressed and how natural the display feels to the humn eye.
    Saving up big time for a proper e ink tablet in the future :)
    Thank you so much as usual James 👑

    The little "f*ck" at the end gave it a special spice to the video.
    At the beginning of this year I bought an e-reader mostly because of you. The value you put on reading and the growth and joy surround that and also the incredible tech that e ink is really helped me to make that buying decision. I never read as much as this year (a lot of books and Berserk so really a lot). As always, thanks! Good to see you James.

    I honestly like how these minimalist devices are a little bit slower, because you are more decisive about where you click or tap. I have a really old android tablet, and it does everything it needs to do, I can read manga, read, access my university site etc. It keeps me productive because its slow. I feel like if I had an ipad instead I would just treat it like my phone and macbook, where get distracted more often. That's also why I have an old ass dell alongside my macbook, when I get really can't focus I can just open the dell. Only microsoft word and outlook work on it, so its super minimal (apart from the chunkiness).

    I have a BOOX Note Air 2 which I use for practically all my reading and writing. One of the best parts of the BOOX tablets is allowing it to be registered for Google Play store apps. I utilize a couple apps for storage of ebooks and files for ready access or exchange.
    And to attest for the durability of it, it once slipped out of a messenger bag and conveniently fell, corner first, directly on the back of a MacBook I ran a little Linux machine on. It dented though the back lcd housing and the tablet was unscathed. So 🤷‍♂️

I would very much recommend that if you do purchase a boox device to purchase it from a 3rd party retailer that offers a decent protection service plan with it. At least then if you have an issue if it breaks to get it repaired or get some money back that you put into the device itself
