If your goal is purely being present in a beach and coding at the same time, I guess you could code in a tent or use a VR glass :) But seriously, and I'm not judging you at all, but why would you want to code on a beach? Or maybe I took that too literally. As a person who can't stand even to read in bright light, benefits for an e-ink display would actually come from using it indoors:
Firstly, no damn heat from the screen. This is my pet peeve. I can't even stand the heat coming from the good old 17 inch LCDs, let alone the giant ones these days.
Secondly, less energy consumption. Well maybe this comes in hand to hand with the first.
And finally, no direct light coming from the monitor, no headaches! I hope everyone has a significant other who looks at them like I'd look at a giant e-ink display.
- ricardobeat 5y agoWhen did you last use one? I can't even remember the last time I felt a hot monitor. The current tech is reasonably energy efficient, I can barely feel any heat coming out the back of a 144hz 27" display, let alone through the screen.
- egeozcan 5y agoI have some older LCDs at home, and a newish Samsung 49 inch (heat comes heavily from the front of the panel on this one!), also an LG 4k TV. All get hot. Could also be that I'm just unlucky.
