I have a Daylight tablet on order. I find it interesting that products like ReMarkable are adding color e-ink, while companies like Daylight are actively removing color.
This does make me wonder more about the Daylight panel and if they could enable color through a software update to enable things like highlighting. Of course, at some point it would defeat the point of the whole company, becoming just another tablet for mass consumption.
- spondylosaurus 2y agoI also have a Daylight on order... but isn't the main thing with the Daylight that it's not a true/typical e-ink display, and that's how it gets such a high framerate? My understanding is that it's a first-of-its-kind thing, so "removing color" is more like "we haven't gotten to color yet." Although I hope they eventually do!
- al_borland 2y agoIt’s using a reflective LCD panel. I’m curious if that panel is limited to b&w or if it’s a typical color LCD limited to b&w in software. Color reflective LCDs exist (I saw a LTT video where they reviewed a desktop monitor using one[0]), they are used in digital signage and less on the consumer side. Daylight does say they made modifications, but haven’t gone into a ton of detail around what those are (at least not that I’ve seen).
