BOOX Note Air 3 C E Ink 10.3" ePaper Tablet 4G 64G

I am was so excited about this purchase... however this product is not ready for market...or at least not at this price as many things dont work properly or at all. it s been 3 months trying to fix an issue as the boox doesnt download my work emails. 5 times i reported and they always close the case and ask me to reopen a new one. Also, it is pretty slow, and many things fail. Sometimes stop writing, or the format of the stylo automatically change. Honestly, i regret to buy it, as I cannot even send the notes to my email or anywhere, as it is not working and they dont give me a solution. Anyway, clearly not my most brilliant moment of the year when i bought this...

Great e-ink device

EXCELENTE

I have explored Kindle Scribe, Note Air 3 C and Remarkable, This device is the best choice, from price perspective and usability and features. Pros: - You have colorful display so if your books have some images with basic colors it looks good. - Pleasant reading experience from ePub and PDFs. - Smooth and pleasant writing experience with no lag. Cons: - too expensive. you are paying £500 for a device to limit yourself for reading and writing with a flickering display! a pen and notebook already help you. - It comes with a Google Play, but most of its note taking apps are not compatible with this device and drawing or writing on the screen comes with 1 second lag. so don't assume you can use your favorite note taking app on this device! I tried OneNote and it was working perfectly but the others no! - They intentionally added a cross mark on the top of the pen to not able use it as an eraser so you have to pay £100 more for pen with eraser! total cost with device £600!! this a very bad sign of marketing! - Doesn't support dark mode - even they have introduced dark mode support in latest version of its software, still was not available to update for this device and if so it only works with epub files. - If you use some sites like excalidraw.com to draw diagrams and writing, it's slow on the browser and you can't use it to draw, connect shapes, and write. - It's note taking app doesn't support selecting shapes by tapping on them, you have to always use lasso tool which after a while annoys you. - It didn't have proper dictionary and said you have to install one! from where? how? I have paid £500 so I expect it to have - I doesn't support persian hand writing recognition! but Boox Go 10.3 had it! it's 2024 and these things are basic things the device should have. Conclusion: Save your money and ignore the obsession about e-ink display and feeling productive or cool! a pen and notebook can help you a lot.

Reviewing after having it for a bit. Overall I love it for reading my school textbooks and other books. Addressing a few well reviewed items: 1. Whiteness of the screen - Yes it is pretty grey compared to some others. This doesn't bother me honestly as it massively saves my eyes from hours of reading a textbook. - I read at a desk with a monitor light (BenQ) with the backlight off and it is great. See attached photo. - Unless you have a direct light, or turn the backlight on, it can be difficult reading in a room on the dim side. 2. Colors - Colors are not fantastic, but that is not the reason I bought it. - For textbooks, graphs and colored text are great to have and it helps things pop out. - For manwa and the like, its not great. Will never beat the experience on the phone (see attached photos). There are adjustments you can make to the colors, but the camera processing actually makes it look better than it is lol. One attached photo has a backlight and the other my top monitor light. 3. Ghosting - Following the comment about Manwa and ill include manga. Reading with ghosting is annoying to me, but you can get used to it, though it will need to be on HD and refresh a lot to minimize it. 4. Play Store - Play store is great. Since all my textbooks tend to be with VitalSource, I have to use the Bookshelf app to view my books. Would be great if they were epub or similar, but ill take the app too. 5. Battery Life - Yes it burns through battery much faster than a normal/typical e-reader. - Because I use a monitor light and have the backlight off, I usually recharge every few days if I notice it getting low. Not an issue as I just plug it in while doing a study session. Overall again I love it! Its fast and I always wanted a larger screen.

This is great product. Saving my eyes from strain. Great to make notes as well. Im using since 06 months and being a indian in India I definitely can say if boox launch affordable products and also establish its service centres here it can achieve more sells which it currently is doing across world.
