I wanted to update to note 3 after I put in order for note air, unfortunately when I contacted the customer service they told me it was already shipped. But when I received the note air I have no regret at all. I love it more and more now I’ve used it for over a week now! Keeper!
Exellent review, Voja! You are absolutely the best. I have the Note Air and am very satisfied with it. I don’t plan on “upgrading” to Note 3. However, based on your review, if I was deciding to purchase one of these devices for the first time, I would go with the Note 3. Three reasons: 1. Slightly lighter weight; 2. Slightly faster performance; 3. Much longer battery life. There is a fourth reason that is never mentioned because it usually isn’t germane to a technical review of these products. We all know and Voja has mentioned it often that while Onyx Boox devices are generally top performers in their field, they usually come with cheap pens and cheap covers. If you want to get a third party generic case/cover, the Note 3 form factor is much easier to fit than the Note Air.
I have that issue now. I will receive the Note 3 tomorrow and I am thinking about exchanging it for the Air. I will still mostly use it for reading so the slightly better light and contrast/crispness are more important for me than slightly better writing feel. Also it's USD100$ cheaper. But lighter, longer battery and the easier way to protect it with various covers/bags is important too! Design and build quality so the feel of a good investment is a pro too. I think that mine laziness will win here and I will stay with what I get tomorrow than bother with shipping back and waiting again :P
Thank you for your video series. I'm awaiting delivery of a Note 3. I came across your videos after I placed the order and you have reassured me that I made the right choice thank you again.
When you get your device, can you please tell me if it is possible to keep an app or browser page open as always on. Example, my calendar app and tasks will be on the screen for many hours.
Thanks for your great and in-depth reviews! I am a big fan of them and used them to buy two of my devices: Poke 2 and RM2! However, I do have two comments: 1. By watching your reviews I found that you are a big fan of Neo reader, while I do think there is room to improve especially in the reading statistics and the reading status bar on the bottom of each page. In Neo, you will only number of pages or percentages left in the book, while for example in moon+ you do have the options of adding the remaining time and pages in the chapter and in the book. 2. I received my RM2 just recently, but by watching your review on note-air and note 3, I am now thinking of changing note -air instead of RM2. Since I do have the Poke 2 for my book readings, I thought using the same environment for note-taking and academic article reading on Note-air will be more convenient. My only concern is the great writing experience and the sleek and elegant design of RM2 which I probably don't get on Note-air, I suppose? What is your say? My usage will be mostly be note-taking (meetings, academic articles, and my thoughts) and reading books and articles. I do not intend to sketch or draw on my device.
Thanks as always for the incredibly deep and insightful advice presented here. I'm attempting to make up my mind between the Air and the Note 3, and am probably tending slightly toward the better ergonomics (Air) over the faster transfer speeds (Note 3). The only other factor I could think of that makes an actual perceived difference to me personally is the durability of the two devices / screens - do you have any insight here? Obviously I'd take all care I could, but in a household with children there are always hazards :-). I've read conflicting takes on Moebius vs Carta in terms of durability, and I suppose the thinness of the Air might make a difference as well?
Did you find any informaton ? To my understanding the carta HD has a glass part in the e-ink itself thats why its covered by a stronger glass BUT the Note 3 also have a glass lens... so what that means?
@@loxire per Voja's response to a similar question by Alex Banica below it seems there's little difference. I ended up going with my gut and ordering the Air, largely because it seems more comfortable to hold!
Performance testing Neo Reader was very interesting. As you have demonstrated and I have scrutinized via low video speed, Note3 is noticeably faster than Air when it comes to dealing with pages with more to compute like pictures but they are really on par when it comes to less demanding pages. What I look for is the best speed in underlining & adding an annotation and exporting files. I think Note3 has the same hardware as Lumi. I have seen Lumi is really snappy with regards to this. I liked that a lot. But even with Lumi I chose A2 mode because less image quality bothers me less than lack of speed. If I do a lot of underlining and adding annotation repeatedly, it is important to me that it functions almost instantly comparable to iPad because of the sheer number I repeat this. So I think the processes I talk about might be faster on the Note 3 than on Air but I have come to the conclusion that it is barely noticeable. Note Air will provide very good speed in A2 mode for underlining and adding annotation, exporting files might be noticeably slower than Note3 but not a great deal and this is also a task that you do less often compared to the others mentioned. Thank you for that demonstration!
I'd love to know the same. What about the reparibility of this onyx devices? Ifixit doesn't make any review about this devices... In 5 years we will be able to buy new batteries and replace it with out breaking the display?
@@Maisonier In 5 years? Are you even able to buy those batteries today? Does Boox offer replacement parts? On the other hand - you can repair most of the devices but you have to be skilled. It is possible to unglue smartphones and change the battery if you know how to do it. It should be the same here.
Hi, Dev here(from India). Do we get a stylus with the note 3 tablets or have to purchase it?? And if yes then what is the life span of nibs that we get from the company ?? And it will be best If you make a video on how people from a different country(where these companies don't ship) can buy these products... And if anyone knows pls reply..
I am always amazed at the dedication and quality of reviews like this. It is a great service to the community and much appreciated!! I have two questions: 1) Now that Onyx have updated the software on the Note 2, do you think it's worth spending the extra $70 on the Note 3, for what seems like just Android 10? 2) does your Samsung S6 Lite pen recommendation still hold for the Note 2/3 (I know the screen is slightly different to the Air)? Thanks!
ARM chip with hardware floating point support can still use software floating point implementation, which may account for the difference in performance. Despite the hardware being the same (if it is). Thank you for an informative video. Maybe hardware float is disabled via power saving settings? If you havent tried already, try to disable all power saving and run tests again.
Hardware is the same but software will be somewhat different. Onyx Box is usually for the Russian market and comes with a different default reader and Boox is for international market and comes with the software I review here.
@@MyDeepGuide It makes me so happy to see your joy with the note air and how elegant, focused and on-point you managed this review. Your work is an example of “professional love” and it goes to my “heart” category, because we all have one too 🤗
Voja, thank you for your review. As I understand you are going to make guide on using Boox devices. Is it possible to check how note search behaves in bilingual environment, e.g. if i have notes in Russian and English, would it perform the search by keyword in system language only or i can search through my notes in both languages?
Thank you. So in order to perform a search in different language i have to switch the detection language, correct? Does it take long, i mean does system has to restart or something?
Sorry for disturbing you but I have a specific question about the contrast settings. I watched your boox max lumi series and you showed the very useful contrast settings. I own the note 3 and they differ quite a bit and sadly to the worth side, as I'm a view options. Do you have the same issue? Thanks in advance and thank you for all the videos!!!
Now that there is an Android app called BOOX Assistant, could you explain that, too, please? It's confusing. For example, I want to use it with a tablet and not a phone. Thank you in advance. I do look forward to your video.
Friend ask me a question please: My biggest interest would be to read books, newspapers and magazines which model you recommend the Boox Nova 3 or BOOX Max Lumi 13.3 looking at the Battery, screen, comfort, cost-effectiveness. Which would you recommend me. Thanks
Thank you for your wonderful review! Really insightful as always. I would also have a specific question: do you think the glass screen of Note air is more fragile than the flexible screen of the Note 3? Could it break easier?
@@MyDeepGuide Hi Voya, Did you notice if the air is less durable or more? They do say it has asashi glass. I am not site in the specs what is the notes protection
Hello, Technically it is possible to maybe do that, but in reality I don't see it as a comfortable and a realistic workflow, so I would be inclined to say no.
@@MyDeepGuide thank you for your quick reply and great guides. It is weird, for me it would be the main usage for such devices: write down report, send email and take note in a meeting room eg.
Fantastic review Voja! Does the remarkable stylus have as much of an effect on the writing experience with this device as it did with the Note Air? I also remember you saying that the Note Air can slide when writing on a table unless you use the cover or hold it in place. How does the Note 3 compare in that aspect? Thank you so much!
Note 3 doesn't slide as much or almost at all, as the back surface has a lot more friction on it's own. As for pens, yes, the screen surfaces are extremely similar, so the same applies to the Note 3 as well. reMarkable pen was simply an example i had at hand while testing. There are better options na out there and I will be covering that in a video that will be coming soon.
Note Air or Note 3? The answer is for everybody in this great review. Well done an thanks for your work! Greatings from Germany. PS: nice basses! 😊 Is the black an ibanez fretless?
Thank you! :) Nope, the black one is a very old Yamaha fretless that i got super cheap, because it was the n a very bad condition. It's almost fully finished now :) restored the fretboard, new pickups, electronics, bridge, nut, everything. I just need to paint it now into a color i like and then it'll be tip top :)
Hi Voja! So, which pen do you recommend to use instead of the original one? Is there any specific brand in regard to the ergonomics and overall feel on the Boox surface? Thanks
I have a video dedicated to this topic, so just do a search or check it in my channel for the best pen and nib, and you'll find all of the info there :)
Thanks a lot Voja for your detailed reviews. One of the recurring criticisms concerns the Carta screen, with a thin layer of glass, which can easily break. What is your opinion on this?
I want a device where I can keep my calendar as always on from an app or web browser. I heard that this is not possible. People say that the device must use a Screensaver. Can you confirm this?
If you are referring to my original review of the Note 2, then you need to keep in mind that it's over a year old, and that even Note 2 was upgraded and made a much better platform from OS v2.3.1 and onwards. That being said, Note 3 runs better hardware and newer OS the underneath it all, something that Note 2 won't be able to do due to hardware product incompatibility, so Note 3 is a better choice of the two, if you want to have the device for a longer period of time.
@@MyDeepGuide Thanks a lot Voja! Very kind of you answering so quickly: I have a Note 2 already, I take it makes no sense to seek to shift to a Note 3 that soon, but I was wondering..
Has anyone figured out how to export notes in high res? Mine look great on the BOOX but awful and blocky when I export. I've tried pdf vector and then converting to svg but still getting terrible results!
When you refer to Screen Cast, do you mean that works like a secondary monitor screen like the Max Lumi, or there is any between these devices because I read that only the Max works like secondary screen. Thanks!
Screen Cast is an Android function where you can share what's on the screen of the tablet, wirelessly onto another device, such as a TV or a laptop or a PC :)
You can if you use a dedicated app. There are many available on Android and they support usually both wired (via USB-C) or wireless connection to the PC.
Write on time and straight to the point as always, well done Voja. But I got confused on something, at part one where you show us the desta results you point out that note air was updated to the latest version, and that there was an improvement in the latency speed. Here in part two where you have done the benchmarks, you say that they have the exact same versions. So my question is are they both updated in the latest version on both parts or you have updated it for the benchmarks, because if note 3 is not with the latest update that may justify the different results.
Lefteris Altouvas thank you for pick up this topic. I think the desta results in first part of review showed downgrade in latency speed for boox note air. My question is there a chance for improvement (back to normal) with next update from Onyx? thank you Voja
As pointed out, the latest update introduced a tiny downgrade, not upgrade in latency speed, by around 5ms. Nothing big, but it's there. As for the rest of the questions, i have no idea. We'll have to wait and see, but I honestly haven't noticed that change in latency on the Note Air at all, and the result came as a surprise to me, so it's nothing noticable in real world use.
@@MyDeepGuide I think it too. I'm very undecided because it's not a 100$ device so I must evaluate every pros and cons. For example it would be great to underline text in different colours or something similar. But probably the first generation will cost a little more than the normal Note 3. Anyway, you are great, best reviews I've ever seen.
Thank you :) I'd avoid 1st gen of any new technology, if you have high expectations. It's something that applies to any device or component, unless you know what to expect as an early adopter :)
Heelo Voja! Thanks for jour great great job! I try to find best option. i iam looking for answer for few quesion. And... sry about my english. Has Note 3 manual screen rotation? Has Note Air password protection?
I'd you are able to apply them air bubble free, they are great, but that is an incredibly difficult task. They are starting to pre-apply them on newly shipped units that are bought from boox.com, I think, but it's worth checking that out first with them directly for which model it applies.
Could the benchmark disparity between the devices be because of the Note 3 throttling the CPU? Especially since it is plastic vs. aluminium, so perhaps the Air would run cooler... did you notice the device getting warm or hot at any point during your review or during the benchmarks? If thats not the case, it's probably some OS optimization/driver issue etc, which hopefully can be fixed by an OTA update.
It's in the works, but first it will be Nova 3 and then Poke 3. In short, it's Poke 2 with an Android 10 and (surprisingly) a bit worse battery life than poke 2. For the rest, you can watch my Poke 2 review and then combine what i said here and also what the OS V3 brings to the table (you can see that from the Max Lumi videos). I hope this helps.
hi first great review. i would like to askyou few questions if you dont mind. iamlookingmainly to readdocuments at work while siting ona chair and maybesome doodling. i am realy wondering between the air and note 3 writingisa really nicebonus. how is the finger print reader works? it it practical to use something like lastpass in it ? the air is beutiful thow butwich would bemore usefull for fast documents readint and quickly opena link to artickle?? i was also told that the air is glassscreen so more breakable so durability is importent

As for the rest of the questions, i have no idea. We'll have to wait and see, but I honestly haven't noticed that change in latency on the Note Air at all, and the result came as a surprise to me, so it's nothing noticable in real world use.

I saw Note 3 review and Note Air review and I think I will go for Note 3. Do you think it would be possible for Boox to launch a Note 3 Color in 2021?
Maybe yes, since eink will start supplying 10.3" color panels in early 2021. So, not impossible.
@@MyDeepGuide I think it too. I'm very undecided because it's not a 100$ device so I must evaluate every pros and cons. For example it would be great to underline text in different colours or something similar. But probably the first generation will cost a little more than the normal Note 3.
Anyway, you are great, best reviews I've ever seen.
Thank you :) I'd avoid 1st gen of any new technology, if you have high expectations. It's something that applies to any device or component, unless you know what to expect as an early adopter :)
Heelo Voja! Thanks for jour great great job!
I try to find best option. i iam looking for answer for few quesion. And... sry about my english.
Has Note 3 manual screen rotation?
Has Note Air password protection?
Hello :)
Yes, Note 3 has manual rotation.
Yes, Note Air has password lock protection.
thank you for answer
Have a nice day :)
How are the included screen protectors that boox ship with these devices? I've seen mixed reviews on Amazon.
I'd you are able to apply them air bubble free, they are great, but that is an incredibly difficult task. They are starting to pre-apply them on newly shipped units that are bought from boox.com, I think, but it's worth checking that out first with them directly for which model it applies.
Could the benchmark disparity between the devices be because of the Note 3 throttling the CPU? Especially since it is plastic vs. aluminium, so perhaps the Air would run cooler... did you notice the device getting warm or hot at any point during your review or during the benchmarks?
If thats not the case, it's probably some OS optimization/driver issue etc, which hopefully can be fixed by an OTA update.
Nope, not even a trace of Luke warm.
Hi, is it easy to adapt with mac book pro?
Thank you
Poke 3 review. Please, I am really waiting...
It's in the works, but first it will be Nova 3 and then Poke 3. In short, it's Poke 2 with an Android 10 and (surprisingly) a bit worse battery life than poke 2. For the rest, you can watch my Poke 2 review and then combine what i said here and also what the OS V3 brings to the table (you can see that from the Max Lumi videos). I hope this helps.
