I have a Boox Note Air 4C so here is the good: * I can comfortably read any PDF; I don't think the font is too tiny. This is the main reason I bought it for. * Android means great data support, I can open any format and I can even install the kindle app and read the books I purchased there. * Using the pen seems nice enough, I started doing some annotations although I didn't buy this device for that. * Nice way to sort of "airdrop" files from devices on the same network The bad: * I am a bit unhappy with the battery life; I hope I will tune it at some point. * the screen is a little dark, so the "frontlight" needs to be on more often than a black and white e-ink device The weird: * the built-in AI assistant is trained in the PRC and has quite interesting opinions on current events and recent history. |

This is why I ultimately decided to go for a Boox Note Air 3 (sad they discontinued the B&W line). Apart from the lack of support for Boox firmware version 4, all the upsides apply without any of the downsides.
