I got one. I love it so far. I never liked the original Kindle size, since it was too big for my pockets, at which point, why not offer more screen? So I had generally preferred readers that are more small tablet / iPad mini size—Boox Leaf 2 was my favorite.
But this is big enough to fit in my pocket, so I hope to have it with me pretty much always. Also, it’s a decent FLAC player—supports microSD, though it complains about USB-C headphone eating up power (as opposed to Bluetooth).
The camera will be handy for when I don’t have my phone—I’d like to be able to be without it (ok, I have a cellular Apple watch) without that “but what if I need to??” feeling.
- hhhlkgvh 3y agoDoes the boox leaf support Google play store? I need an eink device for reading from apps like Scribd, Libby, etc
- jxdxbx 3y agoYes, it does.
- UtopiaPunk 3y agoThis is probably asking too much of it, but does the Boox Palma have GPS? Occassionally I go on outdoor trips with little or no reception, and I'll download maps to my phone that work offline. If I could have a device with great battery life handle map/navigation duty, and also read some ebooks in the evening, that'd be really nice.
- jxdxbx 3y agoNo. A full e-ink Android phone as a secondary device could be cool though.
