I had an XO-1 and your description is really selling the display short, it was much more than just barely readable in bright light. Yes resolution was fairly low on the display, but it was first generation technology and the entire laptop cost only $200. OLPC made many questionable decisions, but the screen was good tech. I remember wanting transflective screens in other devices for a long time before finally giving up hope.
- blacksmith_tb 6y agoAgreed, the screen was one of the best things about the XO-1. Transreflective displays do live on here and there, I have an Amazfit Bip [1] which uses one. 1: https://www.tomsguide.com/us/amazfit-bip,review-5629.html https://www.tomsguide.com/us/amazfit-bip,review-5629.html
