Be warned: each layer of eink reduces contrast. With 4 layers, the contrast of the color boox tablet is terrible. Also, if you buy from boox, you have to pay about $50 to return it. Not worth it at all in my experience, unless you will always be in direct sunlight.

I went through that and then bought a Carta 1200 display BOOX 13.9 and it's amazing. Black and white only, but the contrast makes the device usable.

If you know you won't return the device, get it on their website because they'll give you extra pen tips and a case. I got mine on Amazon, so I missed out on the extra stuff because of my return experience.

100% agreed. I have 2 Boox color tablets and 1 B&W and the contrast differences make the color ones far less pleasant to use. For reading with the backlight, color Boox is just not ready.

E Ink Gallery 3 [1] (used on the new remarkable) shouldn't have that problem as it is coloured particles rather than a filter array on top. So displaying white should be just as bright as a b/w display.

I guess I am not ready to work without having colored code

For what it’s worth, text formatting unrelated to color (font weight, italics, underline, etc) can provide some additional style variations.
