![BOWKYLION - เจ้านายคะ (work-life imbalance) [Official MV]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/6bFj8G2pOi4/mqdefault.jpg)
I’ve been meaning to buy this one for months now, mainly for reading books. But it is quite a huge purchase for me being the frugal that I am, so it was put on-hold. Remembered about it again today so I decided to search for reviews and luckily stumbled upon yours. Each benefits and tips you mentioned just solidified my decision to finally purchase one, especially the language learning part since I am starting to polish my Japanese. Thank you so much for a well-made review!
I’m unembarrassed to say I’m also super frugal 😁 but yeah I really like the note-grid feature, even if it’s not super high tech, but pretty useful. No need to waste a lot of paper just to practice writing.
Note Air 2 is coming, 27.10.2021 you can pre order it.
You have amazing Onyx Boox Nova Air to.
Do you still have it? I'm watching the video, waiting to see what he is gonna say about the language learning
good review, clear succinct and objective, i especially appreciated the use tips at the end, thanks for making this!
Thanks! I still use this device everyday when I’m out of the house
Brilliant concise review it’s very tempting perhaps I’ll splash out on Christmas and the air model I couldn’t agree more with
Thanks for the nice comment! Then I’ll bet it’ll be an awesome Christmas gift 😄
thanks for ur recommendation and the comparison among the different models...I ll get a BOOX with ur suggestions! really appreciate it, dude
Thanks for the comment and I’m sure you’ll like it 😄
Excellent! I enjoyed your upbeat presentation. 👍🏾
Thanks 😄
Amazing review and tips, definitely buy one for school work.
Hope you’re gonna like it as much as I do
I'm on the lookout for a notebook and e-reader, and your review is a solid one. Thanks!
Hope it helps!
Really good, concise review. Thanks
:)
Excellent review! Thanks.
Thanks! It’s really an awesome product. I really like it.
Thank you for the useful review and useful tips!
Highly recommended. 😄
Great review. I am not very patient but your presentation skill attract me to watch whole 10 minutes video.
Thanks for giving "face" :D
That's the best form of encouragement for me. Thank you
Thanks for your sharing … The size matters yes 👏 for me as well … your sharing gives me some ideas 💡 more clearly ! Thanks 🙏
Hahaha glad it helped 😁
Thank you for doing this review, I was weighing up between the Note Air, Poke2 and a Kindle Paperwhite, but now I feel much more confident in spending the extra on the Note Air
Note x which is an updated version of note air will be released soon according to the Chinese boox official account spoilers haha could wait a bit
Yeah, took me awhile to do all the homework that meets my needs but hopefully you’ll like the Note Air as well 😄
Thanks for the heads up Winnie! 👍
@@UpDive8 I ordered it and should have it in about 2-3 days. Thank you for doing such a great review, I've gone from unsure to excited!
Hope you’ll like it as much as I do 👍
Thanks! Great video!
😎
A have a note2. For me, the note line has more ram and is less heavy. I need that because I use it for work (grade papers and write on drive and office...) so I need to carry it to my work and multitask. Thanks for the review!
Yeah I bring the Note to work with me everyday as well, my go to reader. But I’d love to try out the Note2 someday soon. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for this super useful review. I never would have considered these products without. btw, that nifty chart , 01:10, is creatable on the Remarkable2 with fun and with ease. In fact you can draw it. Drawing, and writing make my brain feel happy because it is so much more interactive and engaging for my brain. ... Too bad the Remarkable 2 is extortionately priced, and frankly, so very limited in functionality.
So which reader do you use mostly now?
Great, informative video. I'm waiting for my Note Air 2 to arrive. I bought it over the Scribe exactly because I read German and Japanese (learning Japanese). The fact that there's a grid templet that will help me hone my kanji-writing skills is a definite bonus. Thanks again for a great video, however anything written by Bill Gates would not be on my list of favorites.
Good review man amongst the devices I'm looking at with the thought of a good ereader the onyx devices and the new pine64 one the PineNote
Love to know what e-reader you end up choosing! 😄
4:02 you should instant analyze the Staedtler Noris Jumbo stylus ... I never even use the pen of onyx ... xD
Amazing review, liked and subscribed. The only thing I don't like is there are some comments of people saying this is too fragile. So It never leaves my home ...
Thanks for the tip on the jumbo style! Definitely check it out if I lose this pen 🤣
Great review which I really enjoyed watching. I have subscribed. I’m thinking of buying what is now the Note Air 2 but just a little concerned about its lower dpi of 227 to my Nova 3’s 300 dpi and whether I’ll find that a disappointment when reading books etc. on it when compared to my 300 dpi Nova 3. However, like you, I think that size does matter and great as my Nova 3 is, it’s not ideal for note taking (being too small) not for pdf reading. Looking forward to watching your other reviews and hopeful that you have may done a Note Air 2 review but I’ll find out. Take care and best wishes.
Thanks for the nice comment. Haven’t checked out the Note Air 2 yet, but have heard great things about it.
Thanks! Good job
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the great review. On my side, after 2 weeks of use I would compleain about the pen which cracked and replacement is faar to expensive, consider what is inside.
Otherwise is a good device.
good review.. thanks
Hope it was helpful
Hello, thanks for an informative video. I am thinking of buying note air soon. what are your thoughts on buying an android 10 device when android 11 is available in note air 2? Note air is currently offered on discount at good price so seems like a good option.
Nice review. How good (or bad) is the comics/Manga experience? CBR CBZ compatible out of the box? I'm about to chose this one or Boyue likebook p10, mostly for manga reading.
Good question. Yep it works as well, I at least worked with a couple of cbz formats. Works out of the box.
Great examination. FYI. My Note Air has no problems with accuracy at the edges. Using a reMarkable 1 stylus (after initial calibration).
Good tip, maybe I can try another pen on the edges, see if there’s any improvements.
Great review! Comically; straight to the point though
Thanks!
I love my Boox Note Air as well. Great video. Try reading “Bringing Nature Home” by Douglas Tallamy
Thanks for the recommendation!
Thanks for the review. Just a quick question, while note taking, is it possible to keep you hand resting on the screen as you scribble (like an actual paper notebook) or do you have to keep the hand raised (off the screen) at all times while only the tip of the pen is touching the screen ?
Great question, haven’t really consciously noticed, but my hand does touch the screen occasionally while writing and it doesn’t seem to be a big issue.
Yes you can definately rest your hand! Default it works really nice - and you can even disable hand/finger touch on the writing area completely, while still using your fingers on the function areas! Really great.
@@freedomfighter5222 Thanks so much :)
Brilliant!
Thanks! 😁
Jan 2023, i switch to Boox Tab Ultra. Best 10.3'' e-ink tablet on the market (functionality, ease of writing, feeling the pen, latency, app integration). If i'd wanted a color e-ink, i would have chosen the Bigme Galy (with the new Gallery 3). But i dont need color on e-ink. If i want color - i can watch media and work on my laptop, smartphone and TV. This is only for productivity. I am happy with my Onyx Boox Tab Ultra.
Some other review says that for drawing, only the built-in note app works smoothly - if you download Procreate, Affinity Photo or Designerr, Fresco, etc, the delay before your pen lines appear is unacceptably long and distracting. Is that your experience?
ITS FAST AND THE PERFECT SIZE!
It’s good size for 2 hands … not one hand , cuz my hands aren’t exactly huge
Can I just use it as a notebook, convert my handwriting to text, and export it?
Great review. I really stuck between air 2 and Nova air. Yes you said size is matter but it's difficult to choose actually. Help 🙋♂️
Haven't used the Air 2 before, sorry, don't have valuable feedback to give. 😅
Note that the Note3 is significantly lighter than the Note Air. I also use a Note Air, but I think that it is too heavy - I would get the Note3 for the weight savings. I'm told that it is also less slippery on the back than the Note Air.
Thanks for the useful insight!
Trying to purchase this for mainly class note taking (business student so comparatively quite a lot writing for me). However I am concerned about the nibs lifespan. Will you suggest it for heavy note taker? Also can give an idea how long will the nib last for that purpose?
One more question, will you suggest anything smaller than 10inch for note taking (nova air os cheaper and I’m on super tight budget)?
The pen is useful for note taking , it’s a joy to write with actually. But the one that comes with the note is quite fragile unfortunately.
The good thing is though, I heard you can use other replacement pens that are more sturdy.
Thanks for ur review,
If I'm going to purchase do u recommend Note air 2 or nova air C ?
Haven’t used the Note Air 2 before, but since I really like the Note Air 1… it’s got my vote
Thanks for the video! Can I access my Google Drive account to highlight, and write on PDF documents and then sync the highlighted pdf back with my Google drive account?
Never tried that. But it does well on highlighting with boox, not sure if it synchs and exports it back to your Gdrive
I want to buy this just because i think it will help me to write my novel
Great review. Thanks. I have a questions though. I suffer from severe eyestrain (10 min of laptop gives me a huge migrane). I have a 10 year old Kindle, wich I cant use, since the light settings dont have an off switch. Even at lowest settings it still emits some artificial light, wich my eyes cant handle. Is it the same with Boox? Or can the backlight be switched off completely! I really need a no-light digital device!
Thanks, M
I can’t quite say how it might look like for your eyes, only can say this from personal experience. The boox has two “light” views, one for daytime which is more yellow, and one of night time which is more blue, I do think it is easy on the eyes but can’t guarantee whether it will work for you.
My only problem is that it does lag a bit when opening folders or apps. It's annoying when u just want to quickly jot something down but then have to wait
I picked up a Kindle about three years ago and I have switched between the Kindle, The Oasis, and the Paperwhite. None of them seem to suite me. I love my paper white but I want a E Reader that does it all. One I can read for about three hours a day, sign documents for work, take notes for work, and finally be able to side load some Books I found online. I give a lot of money to Amazon for my books but I don’t wanna pick up a B&N Nook cuz it’s the same thing! Proprietary software is the bane of my existence! I just want a E Reader with a Pen and USB C charging (Wireless Charging is a Plus but not required). Sounds a bit needy I’m sorry, I guess I’m just looking for a good recommendation, IPad is a bit niche now so I just wanna support E readers as much as possible while supporting stores like Barne’s Nook store or maybe a small Library Website. I really appreciate it if anyone has good things to say or has a recommendation for a Device. I like the Boox Note Air but I wanna be sure. This is my Last Device I wanna put money on.
Sorry for a late response. Curious, did you end up getting any device? Love to hear what you might recommend
Besides books I also read articles on the web and looking an e book reader that can do it. Onyx looks like the one but want to know how easy is that to search web and display a standard webpage.
It will do the job on web pages, but you will see ghosting if the webpages have too much animations. Will need to change a mode on the Boox to perform better in this sense, which means will use up more battery.
Excellent review!!!!!
Thanks Jim!
@@UpDive8 I bought the Note Air 2 partly because of your review.
@@jimvorheis1137 Thanks for the big-time trust! And I still bring the Air 1 with me when I'm out. My reading time has gone through the roof.
Any book recommendations for this year? 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 I'd love to know!
Note air 2 will be released soon. You can check it out.
Can you please show Kindle, Kobo, Audible and Overdrive apps on this device?
I’ll keep in mind of this when I do a next deeper boox review.
@@UpDive8 thank you. I used them on Boox Nova Air. It's not the best user experience for me
"... my long commute to work". Does such thing still exist? :))) Nice review. I have been thinking about getting an e-tablet to read and annotate pdfs. I am however put off by the fact that most systems are closed systems and you always need to make copies of files. I send the pdf to the remarkable (for example), do something with it there and then return it to its original place. Since this works on android, do you know by any chance, if you can install dropbox and work on files directly IN the dropbox, so that you don't make copies of files? Essentially I want a workflow, where, in the best case scenario I have something open on two computers and everything happens live on both (well obviously not for pdfs but for the rest...).
Haha long commute does still exist for the unlucky ones who don’t get that freedom 😂 I envy you….. haven’t tried that Dropbox not taking yet. Let me get back to you on this.
@@UpDive8 Thanks, would love to know!
Connect a rubbered band around the pen to add weight?
06:38 "A very nice touch for note-taking"? How nice. How does it compare to the Remarkable 2? Are their overlays for giving a more authentic "pen to the page" feel? I was so close to ordering the remarkable2 twice today, and at least triple that in the past several weeks.
Price , limitations, and now your review have helped me cool my heels. Still, the "pen to the page" feel are like size for you: deal makers.
Haha that’s simple innovation, a rubber band 😄 sure does the job.
Can we read kindle book on this device?
Yep, you can read kindle book formats
How about Nova 2?
Haven’t test that out yet, what are your thoughts?
The Onyx Boox Note Air 2 is a better upgrade in any way compared to Note Air 1
Agree. But when I did the video, the note 2 wasn’t out yet. 😂
🍥 yeeeee✨
No testing of the Kindle app?
Oh right, forgot to include it in the video 😄 oops
Can this read books from internet archive via the web page?
Yeah it can. I actually just tried, you can you its Neo Browser to go to the website then find what you need. Though there will be ghosting when you're browsing and scrolling through websites. The best reading experience (i reckon) is to download books directly on your device
@@UpDive8 downloading to device would require a DRM managing pdf reader. They are probably available since it’s android.
Knowing the books work straight from the web viewer is a great start though! Thank you. That makes this device convenient for reading books with only 1-hour checkout periods 👍
Yep, I do think it’s very functional.
💯
Thanks! 😄
@@UpDive8 Are there any monthly costs for saving the data like I cloud because for the remarkable 2 you have to pay $7
Can one transfer books via a cable rather than Wifi?
Great question. Haven’t tried yet. Let me try tonight. But I’m thinking it should actually work, since it’s Android OS
Yes, works perfectly.
Why do all reviewers say that you can only stick the pen to one side? It can also be sticked to the other side, just not the ridge, but the flat surface to the left of the screen!
Hmmm are we using the same pen? Maybe I’ll try again.
This is correct.
Does the tablet only response to your Pencil
Nope you can use other pencils
I need this for japanese learning.. write kanji's..read jplt PDF
Would be very useful
Other pen can working here device's?? Pen with eraser
Yeah, I've seen others use non-Boox pens to work with Boox. I haven't tried myself, but I believe it works
Is this not the Note Air 2 ? Why review the old one ?
Will do another one if I get my hands on a new note air 😁
Is this the Note Air 1 or 2?
It’s a Note 1
How can i buy this from india
Sorry for the late response. But I'm afraid I don't have that answer
I have this one, not a fan. It's slow and the screen isn't great. Prefer the Remarkable 2
Interesting… I’ve always wanted to try the remarkable 2… you got any favourite features ?
@@UpDive8 Yeah I do, their overprices subscription for a service that was initially free :)
Yea the screen looks dull and not that sharp in the videos I’ve seen. Life x nick have you used a kindle , how does the boox screen compare? I’m debating between the nova air 2 and the kindle paperwhite 5
There will be a Note Air 2 toomorow
Thanks for the heads up!
In my opinion fingerprint is important
Yeah it means different things for different people. Totally understand that preference
Palm rejection?
is this note air 1 or 2?
It’s Note 1. I did this review before the Note 2 was released.
@@UpDive8 i see. Nice review, tho many are saying the note 2 is a very strong upgrade
I have one, its not that great. Different from glass but not quite what they commercialized..if wifi is one, doesnt last that long.😮
The music makes it harder to hear you. Maybe bring it down a notch or two. Thank you
Thanks for the feedback.
You should just wait. Now air 2 coming soon
Thanks for the heads up!
400+$ for a barely fonctional tablet ? No thanks.
Google play
Yep
they lost my business at "noticeable lag while writing"
Yeah kinda of trade off, probably need a Bluetooth pen to do that. But I’m happy to not need to charge the pen AND the device. 😄
Nice review, but Bill Gates? Seriously? Urgh.
I have been scrolling down and finding ur comment. Exactly what I wanna say to him. His ebook reader review was pretty good until his final recommendation.... (BG with his climate change hoax). Maybe he has been reading books too much and not into real news.
Great job! I have Robert F. Kennedy’s Jr.’s #1 on Amazon The Real Anthony Fauci.
Thanks. I’ll check that out.
great if someone would be at home 24 hours a day this device is useless if you want to read on the street something you can do more easily with a kindle because of its size with the onyx it would be an easy target for theft.
Fair point
my life time worst & stupidest mistake buying this. worst of worst. no be able to use it since couple of month ago I received it. I actually throw around CN$1,000 in the garbage bin
The customer service is Horrible! I've had the Note Air for a couple weeks now and the pen has proven to be very cheap. not only does it lag but there might be lot of movement making it hard to write with. After having it for around three day the movement got worse, so I e-mailed customer service (because you cannot call them). Joyce (The customer service rep.) finally replied asking if I could send a video depicting the problem, so I did. In fact, I ended up sending three videos and two pictures, over the course of a week. After spending much more time than I should have on it; I got a final reply basically saying there's nothing she could do for me.
Firstly, it is quite difficult to get across this looseness on video as it is a tactile thing. Secondly, the problem was getting worse. IT WAS BROKEN not on the outside but on the inside, which could not have been my fault. If the problem wasn't such a big deal then why would I waste my time on it why would they wast there time on a product that they know is having problems as there are many reviews and comment saying so. And, I might add, it probable cost them pennies to reproduce.
Here's why they are not allowing me to send it back. lots of people are just buying the "upgrade", so BOOX is wanting me to do the same, but I paid for a product that came with a pen; why would I buy one that is just as crappy? Guys DO NOT buy from them use any other pen there are many that will work there are TH-cam videos showing how they work and work well with BOOX products.
Great review. Thank you.
Thanks!
