    Thank you for showing video on the device. I haven't seen other reviewers talk about that feature. I was looking for a laptop replacement that was easier on the eyes for studying. I have a couple lectures each week I need to watch along with readings and this seems manageable.

    I know there are benefits to E-ink displays but I just cannot imagine spending so much money on something so basic. When I buy an iPad, I feel like it is good for lots of stuff, including reading and writing. But an E-ink tablet is really good for reading and writing but bad for everything else. For focusing, I see why the e-ink would help increase focus as reading on screens takes a hit on concentration and understanding.
    I am still in camp iPad, good video though.

    • @1anre

      Isn't the iPad much heavier and almost 2x the price of the even most expensive e-ink tab?

    Nice honest review. I like the comments at the end about slowing down the 'distraction attractions' to help focus on work. I have been looking at e-ink and boox for a while and I am going to sink the cost into this one to give it a try. Thanks

      @@1anre I tried it and just didn’t like the usefulness enough so I returned it (cost me a little in the refund). I am still interested in the concept but I decided to go with a 2 in 1 windows based pc with an 16” OLED screen. - I needed a new computer for my LLC business needs and this will allow me to do both. I’ll continue to watch but I like the idea, just think the model was a little to small for me - I would be interested in the A4 full size and a bit more computing power/windows based option but they don’t exist yet. Good luck.

    • @harryclawson3136
      @harryclawson3136 17 днів тому

      I went with Samsung galaxy book 4 pro 360. It hurts to spend so much for these electronic (my previous pc is a $500 acer I still use) but I decide to try and future proof for hopefully at least 5 years - got the business version with 32g or ram and 1 TB for 1699 minus some discount I qualify for and the business allows for full 5 year warranty for 200. Still twice as much as I hoped to pay and 4 times my last windows. Ughh. I see smart notes has shown the A5 x2 mock today. But said its release is delayed. I am still interested in this eink concept but I’ll see if my 2 in 1 substitutes for it - I certainly can’t afford trying one for a while. Good luck - I’ll be watching these reviews.

    What’s the difference between Kindle Scribe vs Remarkable 2 vs BOOX Note Air3 Series?
    My usage is to taking notes from whatever I’m learning for that I usually to do it by writing down the learning and making my owns notes that can be available anytime and anywhere to read it again.

    • @kwoknation
      @kwoknation  2 місяці тому +2

      Not too sure about the Kindle but I know the Remarkable is pretty much only for notetaking and not much else, while the BOOX has a lot more Android tablet capabilities! Depends on what you’re looking for!

  • @1anre
    @1anre Місяць тому

    I really really liked the reMarkable but the way you dunked on it and make this Book Ultra C Pro a bettter alternative and that it doesn't have a monthly sub makes it a better buy for me.
    But that $650 price point is still on the high side

    Can you/will you test Supernote A6X2 ?

    • @TimRoot-dotcom
      @TimRoot-dotcom 3 місяці тому +3

      I don't have an online video, but I do own the Boox Tab Ultra (b/w) with keyboard, an Ipad Pro 11 (with magic keyboard) and the Supernote A6X2.
      1. I use the iPad the most, as it is the most versatile device and the Magic Keyboard is the fastest keyboard I've ever used on typing speed tests. Pen feel is bad for note taking, but the raster and vector art apps like ProCreate and Fresco make it great for art.
      2. I use the Supernote Nomad to doodle, brainstorm, and to make To Do lists. The pen-on-paper feel is second to none. It's a LOT of fun to play with, and the ceramic nib tricks your brain into thinking you are using paper. I haven't had this much fun goofing off with an electronic device in years.
      3. I hardly ever touch the Boox ... it is a capable device and runs android apps, but the pen feel is "meh." The keyboard folio is good ... but not as good as the ipad.
      Just my impressions as someone who's used these three different gadgets.

      You can have split screen so on one side you have video and on the other notes. But if the app support playing video at the corner, when you are in other apps, I think it is possible to write notes with it.

    Still waiting on an E-Ink that doesn't have WiFi (only Bluetooth), doesn't have a camera, has an USB-C port, and maybe even a normal USB port, and that runs on a specialized Linux OS with no bloat. If you need to transfer files, just plug it in, drag and drop; simple, I don't need to go on the web, that's what I have my computer and phone for, I don't need a camera, it just adds complexity and takes up space. Every single E-Ink on the market right now doesn't go the full mile, and it's frustrating because all they need to do is remove things, not add new things.

      I happen to think iPads are useless and have 3 Boox devices in 3 different sizes. Everyone's use case is different, just because these do not suit your needs doesn't make them terrible.
