I was excited for this... - BOOX Note Air

- The BOOX Note Air is an e-ink device that is primarily meant to be used to read books and make notes on them, but it states it's a tablet and that you can create works of art on it as well. Not sure if it's iPad level, but Sarah decides to take a look to see what you can do with it. Also, she has two cats and a dog, so pardon the shed city.

"I'm the most gentle person alive"
Somewhere in the LTT studio a motherboard has PTSD (Post Traumatic Sarah Disorder)
XD
Its sat in a corner rocking back and forth going "Don't let her near me EVER again!"
Meanwhile a graphics card is at a SHS (Sarah Handling Survivors) meeting describing the pain it felt being smooshed into the PCIe slot, another being ripped out of one and the RAM sticks, those poor RAM sticks
Take my like
Let’s be fair, that motherboard got off easy, Linus would have bounced it off of the floor
@@boydsmith2732 dafuq?
She is more careful with $2 packaging than she is with hunderds of dollars of tech
As a packaging engineer I think she has her priorities straight.
That pci bracket was not intuitive. Packaging is.
@@TheJttv I wish they had a packaging engineering stream in my university, I had to go to boring old civil engineering.
*laughs nervousely in shaken computer*
Thats what setting your priorities straight does for you, I guess🤷♂️
Sarah's a treasure. And while this was about as informative as it was fun, I feel the angle of the review
was misguided. This feels more in line with the ReMarkable tablet than it does an iPad or regular tablet imo
I agree. The target audience for this product are readers/note takers/sketch artists and all she did was compare it to a product it was never meant to be compared to.
I kinda agree, but I've noticed LTT has a way of trying to introduce people to products based on what they're already familiar with, and Linus himself has mentioned this before. Even if he has a good idea for a video, he won't make it unless either it's something the general public would recognize, or he has existing videos that would serve as an adequate introduction to the concept. It wouldn't surprise me at all if this logic also affected his choices of items to compare.
@@coaxill4059 Actually, that's a very good point. Great appeal to basic human psychology too
@@-kohakuma- Unfortunately this review was oriented around comparing it to an iPad instead of a ReMarkable, which would've been a more appropriate comparison.
Yet I feel like this tablet is still trying to do a bit too much, if you know what I mean? Speakers and a web-browser for example. I don't think it even should attempt to implement either, as it's not something that fits with the niche. I for example have a ReMarkable instead of an iPad explicitly because it doesn't have a web-browser and other useless tools.
I have a laptop for those tasks...
The ReMarkable however can basically just import and export PDFs, it has a file manager, and you can write with a pen on it. It's just a notebook in digital form. And that's exactly all I want it to do.
This isn't even a review to be honest. More like first impression.
Yeah, e-ink is not ideal for creative work. I've used it for reading exclusively, and for that I love it above all else. Comics are brilliant as well, as long as they are black and white (which manga is), though I hear the new color e-ink display panels are absolutely fantastic for color comics.
The boox products are specifically e-readers and not tablets.
LMG probably has an enthusiastic employee for every piece of gadget there is
They have enough of them now.
*gadgetry
I mean, it's probably pretty easy to educate and get people excited about anything with the right incentive.
I highly doubt that they are so excited about a gadget that they're going to work on a video for free about that gadget
It really does 😂
@@dankone3 getting to look at pretty cool tech in your field you probably wouldn’t otherwise interact with is likely a nice way to break up the day that anyone might enjoy. Especially on a video on an incredibly successful TH-cam channel guaranteed to get thousands of views
I like the current trend to have more staff on camera doing segments about their profession/hobby.
Booba
It’s neat but they are making an Apple channel so this might be practice.
Agreed.
Yeah its fun! I love it:)
Well they’ve been doing it for years actually. Like look at their camera reviews in the last.
Nobody comments on the fact the tablet had an image on it's screen WHILE it was off? That's like one of the coolest parts about E-Ink.
It's e ink
@@MrWitherSkulls no shit
I thought that was just a piece of paper/plastic with the image on. That is cool
I mean yeah, we've had e-ink displays for a while, that's what they do. If you leave your kindle on a particular page, it will show that page indefinitely. The technology is cool, but it's not novel.
@@MrAwawe Yeah but it's clear most people don't even know what E-Ink is, so I expected it to be pointed out more. Someone just in this comment replied saying they didn't know it - thinking it was just a screen protector with an image.
"The Hertz Hurt"
i laughed too hard from that
IMPORTANT: you missed 2 major features, you had it on the slowest possible refresh rate(book mode or normal mode)there are like 4-5 types of refresh rate modes, you can put it all the way to a2 mode(higher refresh, less resolution) and 2. In the settings you can enable Google play services(Google play store). I've the poke 3 and really recommend it.
this should have more likes
Does this have a drawing app? What file type does it save as if so?
It almost looks like they did change the refresh/resolution when they went to YT... but if they did, they failed to mention it, equally as bad.
@@MrNside if it is on Google play, then it on there, i personally have the poke 3(so without the pen) hope it helps
@@zeke7515 there is a icon in the status bar that says on which refresh mode you have and in all the shots I've seen it was on the slowest
Missed opportunity
"You'll go to jail."
"Yeah, they'll throw the book at you."
Dang it
@@ShortCircuit or "yeah, or they'll book you."
"Just a design choice I disagree with"
Aaah delicious honesty, love it
I bought this as a high-endurance ebook reader for full-sized PDFs, and It's pretty perfect for that purpose.
I especially like that there's a separate warm and cold backlight, and that it dims down very low (for nighttime reading). It also loses very little battery when off. But everything that relies on the stylus is a bit dodgy.
Hi. I need it for read PDFs files, can you tell me if its easy transfer pdfs files from my computer to this device? Thank you
@@jousa5112 Yes, it shows up as a harddrive when you plug it into a computer.
@@DPortain ok. thank you for reply, that's important for me because Kindle it's complicated for transfer PDFs files, I think I have to do it via email
Sarah: "We also have the warranty card...cool we don't need that"
Dell: 'That's Heresy!!!!!"
as if they could call waranty on what they do with the poor tech :)
Dell: would you like to buy the additional warranty
is it ?
Rumour is that Dell sent her two more warranties when she threw that one away.
@@timjennings8152 "cool, would you like to buy the additional warranty"
I really appreciate LTT putting non-traditional talent on camera. Seems she is not used to being on camera, but I like her energy. She is a joy.
Sarah is amazing!
Booba
I'm almost never the person to point this out, I love her but have her lint roll her shirt next time! I think I only noticed it because EVERYTHING else on camera is pristine and clean; The packaging, the desk pad, the set, and even the... infographs? annotations? the visual elements added in post are all so clean, sharp edged and uniform that the little bit of hair just sticks out like a sore thumb
@@alexbowlen6345 this - otherwise excellent
@@alexbowlen6345 Her eyes are higher up lol j/k
I love that metric and imperial measurements are used in the same sentence. I really think its the best way to talk about dimensions.
Loving Sarah's on screen energy!
"I'm the most gentle person alive"
You're not fooling anyone Sarah, we all remember you got the strength to tear a GPU secured in a motherboard the blank out
Sarah : I'm the most gentle person here.
Also Sarah : Rips a graphics card apart like opening a pickle jar
She also literally dropped the tablet at the end
@@sonicsabbath Linus taught her well
“It’s an old and wise dinosaur, it’s a Linosaur!” a backhanded compliment, we’ll done Sarah! this quote needs to become a thing 😀
Sarah: "We're definitely not going to break anything today"
Also Sarah: Destroys the product completely (except for the speakers)
I know Sarah isn’t meant to be a presenter but she killed it this time
She should do more!
I couldn't disagree more: what a totally wasted 13 minutes.
That was awesome, I agree!
@@jcabanaw Cmon man, it took like 2 min lol. If you don't like that these vids are mostly for entertainment purposes and not as informative as a review, then that's fair, but the only host of all of them that is tht technical is Anthony and sometimes Linus
id love to see more of sarah..... ;)
Riley : What's that stripe on the back?
Sarah : Just a design choice that I disagree with..
LOL 😂
SUCH a joy to watch sarah go through these things! her personality is so bubbly and contagious. love it!
Sarah is very charming and enjoyable to have as a presenter. She is such a natural at this and a great entertainer while still getting the information across in a helpful and quick manor! Good job Sarah!
I'm glad you guys added Sarah in the ShortCircuit team, she is so spontaneous and her reactions so honest, I love it!! I've said it before, I'll say it again, not many people are that expressive infront of the camera
Sarah: The hertz hurt
Linus: I'm the only one who's allowed to say that
It's a very niche product and works really well if you happen to be one of the people that have a use for it. I actually find myself using it more than my ipad pro for note taking and reading (especially manga).
Why does it feel like sarah lives on the edge of explosive laughter? It's like she's always on edge of laughing lol.
agreed :)
well, she's recording a video that will get probably several hundreds thousand views, i'll feel quite embarassed too
Love that about her😍
I wonder what feels like.
I know some people like that. They're definitely a bit strange to be around.
Tbh Sarah’s quickly becoming one of my favorite characters in the LTT lore
It's the LTT Cinematic Universe
@@largepimping And we also have the spinoff channels.
She's great but nobody can top Maddison.
Linus' Rogues Gallery
I read that as LTT Store and was pretty confused for a second.
I bought the Max3 when I was recovering from a concussion. E-ink on Android can be vital! Whatever else the eccentric quirks of the slow tech, it was life giving.
I have one and love it, especially with the paper feel screen protector. Yeah, it's not an iPad, putting them in the same sentence is silly.
"We're not going to break anything today."
Wow i see Sarah has a bold new vision for the direction of Linus Tech Tips.
I think she'll have an hard time trying to get the new wave started
I come to LTT videos for the humor in the comments 😂😂
I love the way this video doesn't hesitate to show that it takes several people to make a video. The natural reactions and crosstalk from behind the camera are a great way to bring the viewer into the studio. More Sarah please!
Want to like your comment but you are on 69 likes
They never kept it a secret that there's a whole team behind every video
@@ImranIsak short circuit tends to break that wall more than other LTT productions though
This is one of the best parodies of review videos I've ever seen. It totally misses all the key points and makes a verdict based on the misconceptions. Subscribed - hoping to see more review parody.
I found it entertaining and Sarah is very charismatic, but I gotta agree with this comment. As a review, this video was pretty pointless.
This was more of a review specifically from a graphic design stand point, this is just for drawing so there isn't very many specs anyways
@@kriaz9916 but thats like reviewing an apple for the job of a hammer
@@milesstock2943 how? This is for drawing, that's all it does. I would like an explanation please
@@kriaz9916 the point of e-ink is to not have any screen glare whatsoever so you are more comfortable using it. it is for note taking, reading, researching and listening to music for longer peroids without the discomfort from screens. the ability to draw isnt "all it does". it has the play store, it has a browser, it has file storage, it has writing apps.
great work. Keep it up! Sarah, your smile makes me smile. You are awesome! Best of luck!
I'd like Sarah or Lloyd unboxing/reviewing art tablets and more art/creativity related tech
and maybe get Madison too!
Super under represented tech segment, and I'd love to see it too!
I was about to comment the same, generally speaking having people used to this kind of devices giving their input is WAY better than tech people who don't really know the usual shortcomings. Plus Sarah is nice
Isn't this primarily an e-reader? Not sure "somebody who doesn't read books" is the best reviewer.
@@Rob-vy6zx You got a point. But I don't think reading books requires any special knowledge for reviewing a product (beyond UX)

My wife has been using this for the past half a year or so for ebook reading, taking notes at work or courses, drawing and what not. The tablet is amazing and it's doing what is intended. It is not supposed to be a drawing board, nor is it good for media consumption. It's just a more capable ebook reader.
I'm so glad that Sarah has been getting screentime in LTT videos. She's getting more and more comfortable in front of the camera and I love it ❤️ #TeamComicSans
Sarah seems like she can be made to laugh very easily and once she starts she'd never stop

I've been using the booxs note air for the last 6 months.This is not a drawing tablet it's exclusively a note-taking and reading tablet and it does those two things better than any other e-tablet. It did take me about a week to get used to the OS, after you go into the settings and enable the Play store it is extremely easy to download any PDFs you need to read, I linked it to my google drive. You can also connect it to your computer using the USB type-c cable so you can use it as a second monitor while you're doing research. The biggest downside is that it's black and white when I'm reading journal articles that contain figures sometimes it's difficult to distinguish the different colors in a graph. I'd recommend this product to students and to avid readers who don't want to be locked down to Amazon's kindle ecosystem. Also if you don't like the stylist that it comes with I personally use the remarkable marker plus stylus.
This "review" was really anything but. Not knowing what the tablet audience is, is either a poor editorial decision or they just did it for the lulz. If you need to take notes for work/school and want to eliminate paper, this is a great alternative. If you need to annotate PDFs regularly, this is a game changer. It does some normal tablet stuff, but that's just bonus features added to the note taking ability. I get it, 99% of people would be disappointed in this if they bought it thinking it was an iPad alternative and this review reflected that. But they made no attempt at honestly describing it in terms of what it was produced for.
Yes this was some kind of weird review...Next time: Is a motorcycle good for moving?!
It's $500. There's not a situation in this world where a B&W e ink reader is worth $500. Buy a regular tablet.
@@xenonram It has good battery life and doesnt strain your eyes...So its a good alternative to buying scripts or printing them out in university...Yes its a luxurious thing, but I would take this over an Ipad for that application, because you look at displays long enough
@@KOrbiid 😂😂
E-ink displays are for heavy reading and their whole thing is that they are not tiring for the eyes. Not made for a designer to draw dinosaurs on.
If I wanted to take notes in apps like Notion, and that my text would be converted into mechanised text, could I do it with this device?
Thank you in advance.
I like how shes getting more and more used to being in front of a camera
Booba
I guess the BTS crew hyping her up and talking with her helped with the anxiety
I have no use for an e-ink device but this is fun as hell to watch. More Sarah pls.
The word you were looking for was... Pliss
Artists are probably not the target of this.
This looks like a beast for downloading, managing, reading and annotating books, news and especially scientific papers.
PDF often don't work well on E-Ink devices and annotating them is always a big trouble. Either they have barely any input at all or the refresh rate of the screen is too slow to write on it. This seems to work quite well on the Boox.
Install an Android-App to sync your PDFs with some cloud. Throw all the Papers into that cloud whenever you come across them during work on PC. On the go (or on the couch or outside in the sun) grab the Boox. All files synced thanks to android and it's big collection of cloud syncing apps. Open the PDF, read, annotate with a Pen like on your would with a pencil on paper.
Annotations get synced back. Later open them on PC, use your notes as reference for work.
Would love a review in that direction.
"You're so careful", Flashback to her shaking a graphics card out of a computer.
I'm actually impressed with the framerate of the e-ink display while playing youtube and also the responsiveness to the pen input while drawing. These things are notorious for being pretty slow operatting at less than 1hz in some devices
It kind of irks me how they give it crap for being bad for media viewing when that was never a strength nor a sales point of e-ink in the first place. It's designed to be a piece of paper you can scribble on without your notes and drawings being lost or crumpled, and without the need to carry a stack of A4's with you everywhere while possibly doubling as an e-reader. And by the look of things it does that job very well.
Yeah, I have an older model which I use in my day job, had it a few years now. Amazing device if you spend a lot of time reading and annotating pdfs, or find you fill up notebooks at a rate of knots. Long battery and eink and better stylus make it better than the ipad in that niche. Not really suitable for a graphic designer looking to replace their ipad and watch TH-cam though.
parece que es dificl entender para algunas personas que estos dispositivos estan diseñados para la lectura y todo lo que conlleva eso, mas no par ver videos oir musica juegos,etc. seria un tonto si yo usara este dispostiivo para esos propositos teniendo cualquier terricola a la mano un celular o laptop para esos propositos multimedia. con este producto se pretende que sea de uso similar al papel,que no dañe la vista, que dure la bateria ,etc
Absolutely. They use it for something it was never ment to be used for and then give it shit for not being good at this. "This PC does not swim. I can not recommend it." Kind of disappointing.
I like my boox note air. My wife got one, too, after I borrowed her mine for a meeting xD
@@MrGnafGnaf But if a product comes with certain functionality then is not unreasonable to expect that functionality to work at least at a basic level.
Sarah actually makes this enjoyable to watch
Its not just "Here's all the numbers and 2 puns". Her personality makes this review
I think these there 100s of tech reviewers and the only famous ones are the ones with personality, tech reviews now are not just reading a script they have to have entertainment or you won't grow I guess
Well, short circuit isn't for reviews, it's for unboxings
Well that’s what I liked 😩
It all depends on what type of person you are. Maybe you like the details and want to get into the nitty gritty. Maybe you just want to see how the product functions with an almost blind introduction. Maybe you want to see how a professional can use a product tailored for their position. Maybe you just don't care and want someone to justify a purchase made.
Tl:Dr, it all depends on what your interested in.
I came here to say this, so I commented to support this. Best personality at the office for sure.
This product is for a niche case, more for professional literature job use rather than graphic designers, it's not supposed to be compared to an iPad, and the e ink screen is obviously gonna lag a bit, the technology is always improving. I like Sarah but this review wasnt good.
Lol
It really wasnt
Thank you for trying to draw on it, actually I found it quite impressive for an E-Ink display. Even more so as I read in the comments below that it offers even quicker refresh modes. I love my Yotaphone for the E-Ink Screen and this could be a really nice successor in terms of reading and Websurfing in bright sunlight.
Sarah says she is a gentle person and then in the conclusion thuds the tab face down on the desk. Bravo gentle lady !!!
That was her cheeky nod at the fact that the magnets weren't working. She probably still did not know they were for a keyboard at that point.
Brava for women, bravo for men, although this rule is not always followed in English.

Comparing e-ink tablets to normal tablets is like comparing watercolor to oil paint, yes you can do art with both but they are complicatedly different in pretty much every aspect. I would totally recommend the Note Air if you are a book worm, a researcher, or a person that loves to take notes and can't stand the back light from normal screens.

Would actually love this. She should also review things like new tablets for their drawing functionality
Milion times yes, she's so amazing to watch.
I’d watch someone like her review more consumer products in general. There’s something appealing about someone who isn’t techie, review products purely from the point of a consumer.
6:11 love that the crew are doing their job but having fun at the same time lmao
I have and use the note 2. Tldr is I would probably not use this for start to finish graphic design but is still a great e-reader, notepad and sketch book. P.s. you can get access to the android play store so you can use other apps.
I read a lot of books and I've used it's notebook to take notes that got me through a few certs now. I've also started using it to diagram house projects. All notepads can be backed up to services like One Note as well as their first party cloud service. The tip is pressure sensitive so you can draw thick or thin lines just based on how hard you press. It takes a bit of time to get used to. There are also different refresh modes that can lower video quality to increase the refresh but this tablet isn't meant for video. There is also a manual screen refresh button in the quick menu if you get any ghosting. I think what I like the most is the battery life. If you turn off WiFi and bluetooth when not in use and turnoff the backlight during the day, the battery can really last you weeks or even over a month. There are some things that the iPad does better but that thing is overkill in price and performance for just books and note taking imo.
I study mathematics, do you think I can move from using normal paper notebooks to using only the Note air boox?
has anyone been able to get scribd working without weird line shifting on this device?
Firstly. Sarah is an awesome presenter, props!
But I felt really bad for the makers of this e-reader, y’all just told millions of people not to buy their product because it was reviewed as a drawing tablet.
Surely this product is shooting to be a really good e-reader that lets you take notes and listen to audiobooks on their great speakers ... just feel like it’s equivalent to reviewing a toaster and saying it sucks because it doesn’t cook roast chicken well.
Is it a good e-reader? Who knows. But we all knew it was gonna be a terrible drawing pad.
most underrated comment
Totally agree!
Honestly this is such a niche product I feel like most of the people this product is aimed at already know about it. So idk if this review will be too damaging. Also I still want this damn ereader lol
he spittin
Yes definitely
Sarah's energy is so positive I love it
This is the kind of "I don't understand the purpose of this technology" and then talk nonsense about it to confuse people more.
Sarah needs to do more videos. She's so fun to watch.
She's so cute and happy. Really picked up my mood. Thanks ; )
This is going to be perfect for reading PDFs, for annotating them and maybe even for taking notes in class or in meetings. It's not an iPad alternative, nor was it meant to be. I think Sarah went into this with the wrong expectations.
True. I'm seen this compared to the ReMarkable as a notetaker, but not as a device for graphic artists.
Yeah I got one recently and I love it, but my use case is more for the occasional note taking / solving math stuff, and as an extra large Kindle (because honestly I find even the largest Kindles a bit smaller than I'd like). It actually works quite well as a Kindle just by installing the Kindle app since it runs Android. I definitely don't think its really trying to compete directly with something like an iPad
But annotating pdfs also works perfectly on the iPad and I don't know about you, but in many diagrams we get in uni, color actually matters. Unless you are reading 8h a day this thing really isn't worth it for 479$
@@futc.photography annotating pdf are horrible.
It is difficult to export across different platform, there are several messy software that are not cross-compatible.
Nowadays any serious paper/textbook, should follow the guidelines to be friendly to both colorblind people and b/w visualization. Colors are just a shortcut for lazy people.
In STEM topics you are often faced with complicated visualization, while the colors might not be necessary for understanding the data, they definitely aid in understanding the visualization quicker.
Sarah has such a likeable personality! I love it!

I work in IT and have always dreamed of working with/for Linus. He gets a lot of crap but he also does what he loves... I commend that. You go LTT. Well played.
I absolutely love Sarah, but can we take a moment to appreciate that conversation between Jono and Riley? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmao. When!?

Sarah with the crew injecting and having some banter honestly makes this a lot better then it would be if it was just the host. I know the chatting slows production but the more interruptions than normal in this video, really helped make it.
She's so sweet!! :)
Also keep in mind, Short Circuits are never "reviews". They're short unboxings and first impressions of a device.
She says the black and white display is a "downside" but it's actually a feature. One of the reasons you buy this tablet is that it has an ePaper display which means no blue light and extremely long battery life, and it offers a larger display than any of the devices offered by Amazon Kindle. It's ideal as an e-reader/note taking device with Android 11 so you have full access to Android apps like OneNote, Notion, Audible, Kindle, Adobe Acrobat, WPS Office, and any Cloud Storage system you want to use. Artists aren't the audience for this.

We need a shirt filled with art of every time Sarah says "let us know if you want it on a shirt"
also a t-shirt with this quote
Like that LTT sticker bomb DBrand skin.. but with Sarah's doodles... and on all sorts of stuff.
She needs a clean tshirt for this vid......is that dog hair or something?
@@MrDownRater same shirt! both quote and all that art =)
You have bad habits (when using stylus) from using ipad. You can put palm on the screen. It works flawlessly.
Her “oot” instead of “out” always gets me
Id honestly like if there was more Videos of Sarah looking at other Tablet Computers specifically aimed for Designers and Illustrators, Huion's Mobile Workstations come to mind.
That was golden. I love how everyone enjoyed participating in this episode. We need more of Sarah
Great review by Sarah. Keep more Sarah reviews coming.
Well done, hope to see you again in another episode!
>doesn't hesitate to call out apples price
>doesn't hesitate to not recommend
More Sara pls
It's not an apple comparable type of product. It's Remarkable 2 kind of product. They should put Anthony to that. Not an accountant.
I ... she was entertaining but I personally feel like she didnt quite get the product or what it was trying to do ... as such I personally didnt feel like this was a quality first look ... more of an entertainment piece if Im honest. So in that sense, yes, please more Sara, but please with something that more of lies within her domain like idk ... some wacom tablet or someting.
@@PastelowyCebulak Janice is the accountant, Sarah is the graphics designer/illustrator.
@@Aidiakapi that doesn't change that she shouldn't do this unboxing
@@PastelowyCebulak A first impressions/unboxing isn't a review. It's entertainment, I think she did a fine job of that.
After what I’ve seen “We’re not gonna break anything today” feels like a premeditated disaster lmao 😂
I think that her review angle is very important. People criticized that she failed to review some in depth features etc. But this is actually a great sign that this device is lacking on the UX side of things. Manufacturers should take note. This is not some power user device, this is intended to appeal to non technical people like her. And UX should be very very intuitive. This is where Apple wins and other manufacturers generally fail.
I can see that being a pretty nice thing to have, can read e-books forever while listening to some music, plus make some notes and stuff.
Sarah needs to host more videos. She may be a bit nervous on camera, but she has an easygoing and relaxed vibe that fits well here and would be great doing other hosting spots too.
Its a nice change when they have artist uses the device to its full potential
I would hope this has more potential than that horrible Dino drawing
Except it's not an art device and the host knows almost zero about the tech.
@@daftbence Given the price you can get a far, far more capable iPad or Android tablet that's way more responsive to boot. This has niche appeal for sure, but niche shouldn't mean meh implementation. It looks like something we'd get like 10 years ago when companies were still scrambling to find something to compete in the then newly invigorated tablet market but all they had were e-readers and a few weeks to modify the crappy OS on them to get it out of the door.
@@TalesOfWar I might misunderstamd your comment but here's my take: I can see myself actually using this tablet, taking notes would be great at uni and I do have an ebook so this could take over that function as well. I also don't want a Droid or iDevice since the display is obviously not vision friendly compared to e-ink. Price is expensive af tho, yet I still wouldn't consider any other device if I could justify this one with heavy usage. I don't need a regular tablet, and I also don't need to draw so why bother with anything else. Also people don't understand e-ink even after decades now, it's inherently slow. Not the OS but the rearrangement of literal physical beads of ink in the pixels. Like at least they could have told Sarah "hey, just so you know at least ONE fookin thing about this, it's e-ink and it's slow refresh".
Is there no A2 mode on this for better refresh rates??
As a fellow font nerd, thank you for Montserat. It's new to me and will help me break my Segoe UI fixation.
