On the "sharp edge issue": I bought two Amazon Scribes last year, both with the fabric folio cover. The edges on early Folios were poorly-finished, and threads were unravelling after just a few days. By the time I bought the second one, they'd made a running change to the cover- a heat-treated rolled edge sealed in the threads, making it look and feel more in line with the tablet. I just put the back of my Go 10.3 under a magnifier, and sure enough, the edge of the pleather backing has a similar heat seal. It's perfectly smooth and doesn't catch my fingernail, but it is a couple of thou proud of the edge of the alloy frame. Also, the bead has a much smaller diameter than the one on the Scribe's cover, which probably is why it felt almost sharp to you. Mind you, I can only talk about my production device- perhaps the review sample you were sent was a pre-production sample, and not quite as smooth?
Which device would you recommend to a college student (physics) that is good for class note taking, reading and self-studying? I value the split screen option (as it allows me to read and write at the same time), the paper-like feel, a device size that big enough to write freely but not too big to stop me reading in the couch, allows me to read in a darker enviroment, allows me to play audiobooks, allows me to record the screen+audio and match the notes to the audio when they were taken (is there any good way to do this besides the lenovo smart paper)? Thank you so much!!
I think this is missing the backlight so it'd be hard to read in dim light, as for matching notes to audio I know that several Chinese e-notes do that, I suspect the Boox software also does that. Most also transcribe speech to text for you, so you can take notes and have the text of the audio recording to refer to.
Honestly the only review that matters for me 😊. For the moment I am quite happy with my tab X but I watch anyway just to see how the company is progressing.
@@Election-sv6ok the background screen is just like all of the other black-and-white Boox screens, but it is the lowest dpi due to its size. It also has a backlight which I would gladly trade for the crispness of the Boox Go. As I recall, it is more white than the one Kaleido device I briefly used and returned (I found I could hardly use it without some sort of lighting).
Mine arrived today, I got to use it for around 20 minutes before the screen failed. Part of it is stuck on the same image. Other than this my first impression was that the display is fantastic, hopefully this is sorted by a warranty claim and I get a new device that lasts longer than 20 minutes.
Been waiting for the Supernote A5x2, but curious to see how this compares. Screen looks great, but from what I remember the Boox notetaking software isn't nearly as good or feature rich as Supernote. Curious to see if notetaking is improved here too
Onyx brings out so many different devices. Perhaps they should bring out an additional variant with BSR for all those for whom a faster response time (also when writing) is more important than the battery life
I honestly believe that in this device and others there is a common factor that is the presence of the Android system. In addition to being the lightest and thinnest device, I would like to understand what its originality is. The fact that they had inspiration from the remarkable 2 is good but for the Remarkable. I can see from the video that it's not so intuitive. I think we have to wait for the evolution of the Remarkable 2 today..... Then you can say that something new has arrived.
Can you name me another product on the market that has a fully functional Android 12 with a 10.3" screen, 300 PPI and the connection of the content to the screen like this product does? I can't think of one.
@@MyDeepGuide no, infact I think it is the only one to have these specifications, but let's also think about the possible evolution of remarkable which is the only one on the market to have invested in software, is focusing heavily on the possibility of working from one device to another and was certainly created to replace paper. let's see in 4 years if the boox go 10.3 will still exist
@_luigimarazzi_art When you say "exist" do you mean by still selling a 4 year old device at a full price, like Remarkable is doing (well technically, a higher price, as they introduced the "Connect" subscription model), or that it is still an actively supported device by the manufacturer? If it is the case of the latter, then I would reference the Boox Note Air 1 or let's go even further back, to Boox Poke 2, which I still own, use and which is still getting current updates, despite it being over 4 years old at this point.
@@MyDeepGuide remarkable 2 has lasted for 4 years and has improved. Its philosophy is different from other Android devices. I don't think the next Remarkable will come out with another operating system. Let's see how Remarkable will respond with the release of Boox go 10.3. the small subscription is the price of not having the playstore.....but on a digital notebook what use can I use other apps for? I hope for a hardware and software update for remarkable.
But the same can be said for Note Air 1 as well. It has received a lot of updates, a lot of new functionalities and improvements. So I don't fully understand how are the updates and improvements done on the Remarkable 2 different from the ones done on the Note Air 1 in the past 4 years? I would like to try and understand your point of view, that's why I ask, and I am trying to use a very straightforward example, so that it's easy to compare and understand :)
Hi Voya, I am very interested in purchasing this device, but I have a concern that I hope you can address in your review video. I couldn't find any information about whether the device has a fingerprint sensor. While the lack of a fingerprint sensor is not a big problem for me in my Supernote, it could be an issue with an Android device that contains private apps such as email and agenda. Having to use a PIN or password every time the device goes to sleep is not ideal. Could you please confirm whether this device has a fingerprint sensor like other Boox devices? Thank you!
@@MyDeepGuide Thank you for taking the time to answer and congratulations for your channel, I really enjoyed checking it out every week. Keep up the great work!
I have the Boox Go device now for a week and used it intensive also at work. I absolutely love it! It’s thin, light and very crisp and the writing is really wonderful. Coming from a remarkable and Note 3 this for me is the best of both worlds! Love it 😀
@@Cons2911 Note taking on this device is great, like the Remarkable but better and faster. Feels like actual writing. Organizing notes is no problem you can even synchronize or export to google drive or dropbox
@@robertaudal88 No problem for me I use it for writing mainly not reading at night. I actually prefer no backlight since the writing surface is closer to the top and more realistic. I use the device almost always in daylight and otherwise when I work at night I turn on the desk light like on a real notebook
It is nearly perfect, but I really wish they would release a 13.3 inch version of the Go. Nearly all of my reading is A4 size PDFs which is difficult to read for extended periods on anything smaller. In a future review, could you try to show how reading of A4 PDFs is like on this?
I agree, Go 13.3 would be a dream come true :) in the meantime, you can always use a 10.3" device in landscape mode, fit to width and then use it that way. That's what I do at least.
If they release a Go 13, I hope they reinforce it. A tablet that works, but is warped in 3 dimensions is not a satisfactory drawing tool. My son is a graphic artist, and has bent two 12.9" iPad Pros on multiple occasions.
I comment before to see the video just to say that I never waited with so much impatience any of your videos, or any tech related video actually. Thanks a lot!
Haha, so did you like it then?! I’m hoping that the tilt pen has gone from the Boox software whilst they sort out that crashing bug that it had! They fixed the keyboard issue that this one had pretty sharpish though, so that was good to see!
Nah, not at all :PPP I just want to clear out work so that I can find something else to do on the device 😁 It just makes me happy when using it, and you can't really ask for more than that in my book :)
Yup, my trustworthy Note Air 1, which I've for about 4 years now, is still going strong and my SN A5X offers a great alternative in software to the Boox. Honestly, how could I justify a Go 10.3? But I want it! Voja, can't wait for your data analyses. Maybe they will persuade me to pass on my NA1.
I have a small Bluetooth keyboard that connects well, but the lag when typing is evident - hopefully there's a setting somewhere that can remedy this as being able to type outdoors is desirable.
@@0LoneTech indeed, you can use a Bluetooth keyboard but it's not as convenient as it is being built into the case itself. So you'll have to carry an extra object with you. I'm not sure if the Boox Go 10.3 has the connection pins for a keyboard case.
I want to see this with Boox Super Refresh (BSR) for fast scrolling without ghosting, and in 12" size for reading academic books and papers. I also want the pen to come with an eraser. I would happily pay a higher price for these features.
Received mine today. It's very nice, and I love how thin and close to the table it is. The stylus is nice, and the writing experience is great. The case is okay, although I'm not sure about the detachable flap. I am disappointed by the weak magnet that attaches the pen to the tablet - not only does the pen easily fall off, but when it is clasped in by the case, it slips in between the case and tablet. Also, all five of the spare tips I received as part of the package were bent (Boox has been contacted). Overall (and so far), I like it, especially given the price. As this is my first Boox device, have you produced a dummies guide to getting started with such devices? I look forward to your full review. Thanks.
@@gavinwebb I find the premium pen for the Kindle scribe fits the Boox devices better as they have a little indentation in the pen that fits the curved device edge pretty well.
Agreed on the case cover, last night I decided I'm not going to try to make it work, I will only use it if the Go goes in my bag, from now on it lives naked on my desk and the experience is much better that way.
@MyDeepGuide Voja Amazing review, I share most of your impressions, although I have to disagree on the back glued edge, if you take a look with a magnifying glass you can see it is not glue, it is a plastic lip they positioned there and I believe it is very clever, it protects the PU leather from detaching or curious fingernails trying to peel it off, and it also gives a very subtle grip to the tablet without being too noticeable, whenever I pick it up from my table I thank them because that bit of friction between the tablet surface and my finger skin makes it way easier to hold.
They will register you as a friend and give you discounts and gifts in return. And you also will get a nice bonus on your social credit score when you move to China after the West will inevitably have collapsed.
The more I watch your video (2nd time) the more I am wanting to hold and use this product. The firmware 3.5.3 is a fantastic set of changes. As others have mentioned I also would be curious about a BSR version, but only if there was a switch to turn off/on to conserve battery like a “low power mode”. It would be even cooler if you could configure what you want to switch off in low power mode. Incredible value
Can't wait for your full review, Voja! So tempted to get the Go, but my NA1 is still going strong. Would a NA3 or the Go 10.3 make a significant difference in speed and latency compared with the NA1? Apart from the joy factor? You don't have yours anymore, I'm aware, but what would you reckon? Thx, xxx
I’m in the same position. It would really help my office workflow to use OneNote for work, along with some of the other MS Office 365 apps, but the latency on NA1 is too much. I’m always tempted by the TUC Pro but put off by the weight and thickness, as note taking is still my primary focus.
I can't wait to see your follow up to this video! I didn't even know this was coming. I've wanted a device like this for awhile and was torn as to which I liked most. This device makes the decision easier for sure! I hope it is more durable than the remarkable 2. I see a lot of people with damaged devices because it is so fragile. I wanted something thin like this but with extra features like a syncable calendar. Finally.
42:22 KUDOS for still having and knowing how to use a vernier caliper, very old school, and way too many people have no idea what they are let alone how to use them!!!!! BRAVO!!!
Busy week, didn't have a chance to respond after receiving mine the day after this unboxing... I understand why you posted a glowing assessment! Lacking your experience with Android (IOS user since iPhone 3GS), I'm still learning what to remove or minimize in the UI to reduce distraction. Still, it feels very streamlined, and I don't miss the front light. The v3.5.3 firmware is already a big step up from the NA3C I tried out in January. Love the insert menu in Notes, but wish that access to Freemark worked across more apps. Sadly, the case is not lefty-friendly. Of course, I represent just 10% of the public, so that won't affect 90% of users.
For a long time I've been looking for an e-ink device with as few layers between the screen as possible, for the best visual quality. It is looking like my search is finally over. I want to use it for manga especially. I know Boox devices didn't support dithering unless you switched to a faster, more ghosted refresh rate. Is that still the case, or is there a setting for dithering independent of refresh rate mode? Dithering is a must for any image viewing or else there is severe banding in the image, but I also want the most, non-ghosted refresh at the same time. Edit: Kind of answering my own question here, but at ua-cam.com/video/aPK8vXr-nYY/v-deo.html I see you select an option called "Image smoothing" for dithering. That is great to see.
Boox Go 10.3 300ppi weighs 365g, almost exactly same as Fujitsu Quaderno 13.3 207ppi (368g) which is a lot larger screen? Why same weight, why couldn't they make it lighter I wonder?
Because it has a metal frame, because it is using an HD Carta screen, which is a glass panel screen, and Quaderno uses a Mobius Flexible screen, which is plastic and lighter, and lastly, because Quaderno has a smaller battery than the Go 10.3.
Great video! I'm debating whether to get the Boox Go 10.3 now or hold out for the Supernote A5X2. I have never owned an e-ink tablet. I have an iPad but don't like to use it for note-taking. Given that I'm looking mainly for a note-taking device, which one would you recommend? The price on the Boox is awesome, and I'm assuming that the Supernote will be a lot more expensive (since the A6X2 is already more expensive). How does the writing experience on these devices compare to an iPad (with a paperlike)?
Hello, I would like to know if you can create hyperlinked objects that can take you from page to page? Maybe you can do a demos of the capabilities of the notes and even audio notes? That would be amazing! Thank you for the review
@28:38 even through the camera and my LCD screen the effect of the panel being right at the front was apparent. I was dead set on getting the Note Air 3 Plus, but I can see the advantage of removing the frontlight layer. Looking forward to your in depth review and eventually a comparison between the Go 10.3 and the upcoming NA3+. That will be a tough decision.
Thanks for such a great review as always. Order is placed :) It might only be a first impression, but it looks almost perfect from everything that you showed already.
I skipped some parts (thanks for the bookmarks 🤗). I noticed an error in the transition of segments around the 45 minute mark. Just so you know ☺ Other than that: Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for this. Like others i have been waiting on this. Mine comes in next week. I have the RM2 and love it. Just thinking i will replace my Scribe with this.
A great look at a potential RM2 killer. The things I would prefer; a card slot to expand the storage. A case with a light attachment, for late night use. A slight increase in thickness and maybe increased battery size would be fine. Removable would be icing on the cake. Be interesting to see the Supernote reaction to this
Do you think this will be as good as the Supernote A5X2? I'm holding out for that, but got myself a Scribe in the meantime. One thing that puts me off Boox, is the rapid output of devices - I'd hate to buy Go 10.3, only to find it obsolete within months.
I doubt the supernote will be as good as this... I just returned my a6x2, then tried lenovo smart paper and now I bought this - my reason for returning the supernote is that in terms of build quality it's nowhere near this (or the leonvo, that one had very nice hardware too)
I still have and use my Poke 2, which has been with me now for over 4 years and it has the current update version, same as my Note Air 3C. In my book, that is a good support period, and quite long term.
That's what I thought. The note is more of an overall tablet replacement, capable of note taking but also general use that you would on a tablet, whereas the GO series has note taking and reading as its main purpose. The GO is thinner and lighter, with a 300 PPI screen.
My guess is that it would support Amazon with the kindle app but not Apple because they are a closed ecosystem system. Anyone feel free to contradict me if I’m wrong
❤ thanks! Is it possible to take notes in the landscape mode... and are any landscape templates available with plain lines.. could you show this by chance. I would like to use more the whole width of the screen size in landscape mode... thanks again for your amazing work and contribution😊
Great. Video. Ive had mine for about a week. Ive also own the remarkable 2 and the scribe. At first, I didn't like the Boox software,but loved the device, but eventually i learned its quirks and have now fully made the switch.
Just curious which writing experience do you the most? Or more specifically how does the feel of writing on this device compare to the writing on the Scribe. Which one do you prefer?
@@mzmel1 I also use a Scribe on a regular basis, so I'm chiming in, I have put the Scribe and the Go one next to the other, and tried interchangeably the pens in both of them, I can barely feel the difference, the sensation to me is 98% the same, but at the same time I like better the Go as a writing device, the lack of light was a struggle for my brain at the beginning but I got used to it, my conclusion after 3 days of heavy use is: all my writing goes to the Go for now on, the reading though stays on the Scribe if it is handy, if not I can still read on the Go. ps: I should note that eventhough the screen is supposedly the same in both devices, when I view the same book, same page, etc... the quality on the Go is way better, the edges are way sharper, maybe the distance between the screen and the surface also helps with clarity and contrast.
@@Peepeh this was sooooooo helpful. I love the feeling of writing on the Scribe but now that I understand how useful writing on an eink tablet is I really want something with a file system that’s searchable. You sold me. Thanks!!!
Just got a Boox 10.3 Go . I have to say I am very disappointed in it. It is absolutely GARBAGE at annotating PDFs. To the point of being useless. Its Notes app is also slow and clunky. I cant help but feel that the reviews of this device have not been rigorous and it has been hype-train over thorough analysis. Happy to discuss. But for anyone doing PDF markdown this is a No Go device.
Could you maybe add some specifics? It often happens that users who are new to Boox platform assume things incorrectly, and don't read the user manual, and then they miss out on functionalities that do exist, or simply don't know how to perform certain tasks. I say this, because Boox NeoReader has one of the (if not the) best pdf annotation functionalities, so that could be the case here.
I currently have a Kindle Scribe but have been wanting something that has better syncing and writing tools. I have read that the pen lag is noticeable on Boox compared with the Scribe. Looking forward to getting this but that is my concern.
Which Boox device? Tab Ultra and Tab Ultra C Pro have virtually identical writing latency as the Scribe, while the Note Air 3C is faster than the Scribe. Keep in mind that we are talking about 1ms or less differences here, so not something that you can easily notice.
@@MyDeepGuide The Note Air 3 B/W. I read the lag is noticeable coming from the Scribe. It has the same processor as the Go 10.3 but I guess the 3C has that processor too. I will get the Go in a few days so I will test it out. BTW, love your videos.
This is exciting, though all I want is an ereader. But I need a much larger storage capacity for all my ebooks - or an sd card to expand it. 64GB is way too small. Maybe the next iteration 😊.
Do you have any recommendations on how to reduce all the clutter on the boox note screen? I come from Remarkable and my biggest grip with boox is the screen space wasted to toolbars.
I wanna know if you don't mind. the screen is different between the boox note air 3 and Boox Go 10.3. I mean not the color, as far as I know the boox note air 3 has the pre-installed screen protector that make to get paper like feeling in note taking and can remove with hand easily. This is the one thing I don't like. I think it is no premium setup. so, in boox go 10.3, it has a screen protector or non-removable paper-like screen. Also I wanna know also, in low light conditions, the Boox goes 10.3's brightness, what happens with the screen brightness when you use it in low light situations?
The writting latency looks good, but I have read some reviews saying that the difference wrt to remarkable 2 is noticeable. Do you confirm that feeling?
Yes, I can confirm, and for my taste Go 10.3 feels a lot better all together when I compare them back to back with the same pen. Remarkable 2 feels more glassy and harder when compared to the Go 10.3.
@MyDeepGuide can you play about with typing on this device, please. I've just tried it out on the default notes app, and in Microsoft Word, and the lag is really jarring. Are you aware of any way yo improve this? Thanks :)
I don't know if you can answer my question or maybe it's a dumb question. Do you know if you can work with texts other than English on these devices? Like an Arabic or Persian script? Thanks for any info.
Note that I'm using a Boox Note Air 2 device, not the Go, but the system is essentially the same from what I've seen except some cosmetics, so I don't believe they've removed languages.
Seriously? UA-cam removed my first comment? Shortly, yes, but. I don't read these languages, but you can set system language to Arabic, you can download any writing app (like MS Word) or keyboard if the native ones don't support your specific variant well enough, and if I connect a physical keyboard with USB or bluetooth, there's Arabic and two versions of Persian in the layout options. BUT NOTE that apps you download are rarely optimized for e-ink screens so they can lag and have other bugs especially with pen input - typing is OK - and that some functions aren't available in those languages, like handwriting recognition (turning it to print style text.)
@@AnasGhaith No, On Amazon Germany's website it clearly states that BOOX Go 10.3 comes with 1 stylus BOOX Pen Plus and 1 USB cable, no other accessories.
Voja, when you close-up the text at 17:31, what I see is not crisp, sharp text but serrated, fuzzy lines and curves, especially of the letters like e, p, o etc. It doesn't seem to be 300 ppi. Is it because one of the weird view-modes of Boox?
Well done for stepping back from your strange first thoughts video where this device was “identical” to the Remarkable, to the extent that you suggested it would never be released for legal reasons (albeit it would have been nice to admit outright that you made a mistake). That was a bizarre stance to take on such an interesting release. I think the lesson to be learned here is not to be too militant in your thoughts until you get hands on - for better or worse you have a great influence in this space, so ill chosen words can change a lot of buying decisions.
There is nothing strange or bizarre about that. If you are attempting to make a case that this device is not copying the RM2 design, then you really need to reevaluate your objectivity. If you compare this device to literally any other device on the market, the only other devices that it would be most similar to would be the Remarkable 2 and the Huawei Matepad Paper, but the Matepad Paper has an equal frame and some more differences to make it stand out further from either of these two. So, if you really are serious about what you are suggesting here, you should check why it is exactly that you are unwilling to call a spade a spade.
Please read what I said again rather than leap again on your defensive horse. In the first video you said “identical”, which it clearly isn’t. In this one you said “heavily inspired by”, which it clearly is. The former would be illegal, the latter perfectly fine, and what the tech industry does on a regular basis.
I have read carefully what you wrote, and I have actually re-watched my video that you are referencing, and I never used the word "identical". So I don't know who you are quoting here in your quotation marks, but in this case, it's not me.
I challenged what you said with facts and expressed my opinion on the matter. In my second reply I fact checked your statements, which were incorrect. Where is the attack? As for the "carbon copy", yes that is what I said and that is exactly the reason why in the conclusion of this video, I explicitly said that it is not a carbon copy.
Too thin with a sharp edge and poor pen attachments are a disappointment. Hope they fix this for the next version even if it costs more. $380 is super cheap for a daily use device that lasts for years. Add $50 - $100 more and fix these issues.
I'm pretty sure that the edge will dull down due to use, as it is already now starting to be less sharp. But I agree, the magnets for the pen are a big miss.
@@MyDeepGuide is the magnet inside the stylus or a spot on the Go? If it's in the stylus, is there another stylus with a stronger magnet that could work? If it's in the Go, is the problem with the magnet strength or the stylus material? Just trying to work out a better combo, because I'd lose that thing the first day! Thanks for the work you do.

Love your excitement and giggles🇩🇰💪 🎉
Onyx brings out so many different devices. Perhaps they should bring out an additional variant with BSR for all those for whom a faster response time (also when writing) is more important than the battery life
This is life time work. Good job.
Plz make a complete comparison between boox go 10.3 and note air 3.
Which software version is this? The ui looks better!
edit: 3.5.3 !
I honestly believe that in this device and others there is a common factor that is the presence of the Android system.

@@MyDeepGuide no, infact I think it is the only one to have these specifications, but let's also think about the possible evolution of remarkable which is the only one on the market to have invested in software, is focusing heavily on the possibility of working from one device to another and was certainly created to replace paper. let's see in 4 years if the boox go 10.3 will still exist
@_luigimarazzi_art When you say "exist" do you mean by still selling a 4 year old device at a full price, like Remarkable is doing (well technically, a higher price, as they introduced the "Connect" subscription model), or that it is still an actively supported device by the manufacturer? If it is the case of the latter, then I would reference the Boox Note Air 1 or let's go even further back, to Boox Poke 2, which I still own, use and which is still getting current updates, despite it being over 4 years old at this point.
@@MyDeepGuide remarkable 2 has lasted for 4 years and has improved. Its philosophy is different from other Android devices. I don't think the next Remarkable will come out with another operating system. Let's see how Remarkable will respond with the release of Boox go 10.3. the small subscription is the price of not having the playstore.....but on a digital notebook what use can I use other apps for? I hope for a hardware and software update for remarkable.
But the same can be said for Note Air 1 as well. It has received a lot of updates, a lot of new functionalities and improvements. So I don't fully understand how are the updates and improvements done on the Remarkable 2 different from the ones done on the Note Air 1 in the past 4 years? I would like to try and understand your point of view, that's why I ask, and I am trying to use a very straightforward example, so that it's easy to compare and understand :)
Please tell me how i can increase light screen ?
It does look like a rM2 dupe!
Can anyone tell me how to adjust the brightness? Or is that not something you can do? Can you read on it at night with no light on?
Nope, no frontlight on this
Hi Voya, I am very interested in purchasing this device, but I have a concern that I hope you can address in your review video. I couldn't find any information about whether the device has a fingerprint sensor. While the lack of a fingerprint sensor is not a big problem for me in my Supernote, it could be an issue with an Android device that contains private apps such as email and agenda. Having to use a PIN or password every time the device goes to sleep is not ideal. Could you please confirm whether this device has a fingerprint sensor like other Boox devices? Thank you!
It doesn't have a fingerprint reader, so only pin for screen locking.
@@MyDeepGuide Thank you for taking the time to answer and congratulations for your channel, I really enjoyed checking it out every week. Keep up the great work!
I really don;t understand why boox didnt include tilting in this device. it's basically for writing and sketching! then no tilt!
Apparently there was a bug that caused instability in the devices, so they disabled it while trying to fix the problem.
It just takes so many clicks to achieve anything. I don't think it's for me
Well , cover is downgrade and responsive could be better. This is how I see it. Of course there are benefits. I dont see much difference of 300ppi.
I wonder what the performance is like versus a boox tab ultra C or a boox air C. Looking forward to your review :-)
I have the Boox Go device now for a week and used it intensive also at work. I absolutely love it! It’s thin, light and very crisp and the writing is really wonderful. Coming from a remarkable and Note 3 this for me is the best of both worlds! Love it 😀
How’s note taking sir? I’m not familiar with boox, do they have ways to organize notes? Thanks
@@Cons2911 note taking is excellent. Organizing is very easy. You can create various files and folders to your needs
Dont you get bothered without front light using this device? from Note 3 perspective?
@@Cons2911 Note taking on this device is great, like the Remarkable but better and faster. Feels like actual writing. Organizing notes is no problem you can even synchronize or export to google drive or dropbox
@@robertaudal88 No problem for me I use it for writing mainly not reading at night. I actually prefer no backlight since the writing surface is closer to the top and more realistic. I use the device almost always in daylight and otherwise when I work at night I turn on the desk light like on a real notebook
It is nearly perfect, but I really wish they would release a 13.3 inch version of the Go. Nearly all of my reading is A4 size PDFs which is difficult to read for extended periods on anything smaller. In a future review, could you try to show how reading of A4 PDFs is like on this?
I agree, Go 13.3 would be a dream come true :) in the meantime, you can always use a 10.3" device in landscape mode, fit to width and then use it that way. That's what I do at least.
If they release a Go 13, I hope they reinforce it. A tablet that works, but is warped in 3 dimensions is not a satisfactory drawing tool. My son is a graphic artist, and has bent two 12.9" iPad Pros on multiple occasions.
I comment before to see the video just to say that I never waited with so much impatience any of your videos, or any tech related video actually. Thanks a lot!
So glad to see someone as excited by super close eInk displays, as I am 🤓 It's really like magic. Great video!
Haha, so did you like it then?! I’m hoping that the tilt pen has gone from the Boox software whilst they sort out that crashing bug that it had! They fixed the keyboard issue that this one had pretty sharpish though, so that was good to see!
Nah, not at all :PPP I just want to clear out work so that I can find something else to do on the device 😁 It just makes me happy when using it, and you can't really ask for more than that in my book :)
Love your excitement! Your enthusiasm is contagious ☺
The device makes me want to throw my money at it, despite me having a Supernote A5X ;)
literally, i'm busy trying to rationalise why i need 2 e ink devices
Yup, my trustworthy Note Air 1, which I've for about 4 years now, is still going strong and my SN A5X offers a great alternative in software to the Boox. Honestly, how could I justify a Go 10.3? But I want it!
Voja, can't wait for your data analyses. Maybe they will persuade me to pass on my NA1.
@@annvoy7698 which one do you prefer between the 2, i've got SN A5X As well and why do you have 2 e inks?
This is better than the remarkable. It would've been nice if they had the keyboard case for this as well.
It is an Android tablet with Bluetooth, so there should be quite a few third party options.
I have a small Bluetooth keyboard that connects well, but the lag when typing is evident - hopefully there's a setting somewhere that can remedy this as being able to type outdoors is desirable.
@@0LoneTech indeed, you can use a Bluetooth keyboard but it's not as convenient as it is being built into the case itself. So you'll have to carry an extra object with you. I'm not sure if the Boox Go 10.3 has the connection pins for a keyboard case.
I want to see this with Boox Super Refresh (BSR) for fast scrolling without ghosting, and in 12" size for reading academic books and papers. I also want the pen to come with an eraser. I would happily pay a higher price for these features.
Thanks for the review! I want to purchase an E-Ink tablet and am waiting to see the Supernote A5X2. Any thoughts or recommendations?
Received mine today. It's very nice, and I love how thin and close to the table it is. The stylus is nice, and the writing experience is great. The case is okay, although I'm not sure about the detachable flap.
I am disappointed by the weak magnet that attaches the pen to the tablet - not only does the pen easily fall off, but when it is clasped in by the case, it slips in between the case and tablet.
Also, all five of the spare tips I received as part of the package were bent (Boox has been contacted).
Overall (and so far), I like it, especially given the price.
As this is my first Boox device, have you produced a dummies guide to getting started with such devices?
I look forward to your full review. Thanks.
@@gavinwebb I find the premium pen for the Kindle scribe fits the Boox devices better as they have a little indentation in the pen that fits the curved device edge pretty well.
@@RobertBitzer I'm used to the Samsung tab s pen - I find that magnet awesome.
Agreed on the case cover, last night I decided I'm not going to try to make it work, I will only use it if the Go goes in my bag, from now on it lives naked on my desk and the experience is much better that way.
Can you link the device to a keyboard
@@BobRyan-yz9px yes, via Bluetooth. Initially I found the typing experience to be poor, but when I changed the refresh rate to 'Speed', it works fine.
I'm so tempted to get this one, but getting major side eye from my wife :P
@@anoopramakrishna Getting the same from my husband haha
@MyDeepGuide Voja Amazing review, I share most of your impressions, although I have to disagree on the back glued edge, if you take a look with a magnifying glass you can see it is not glue, it is a plastic lip they positioned there and I believe it is very clever, it protects the PU leather from detaching or curious fingernails trying to peel it off, and it also gives a very subtle grip to the tablet without being too noticeable, whenever I pick it up from my table I thank them because that bit of friction between the tablet surface and my finger skin makes it way easier to hold.
Watch those paper cuts!
For a device like that I am gladly giving all my personal information to the chinese goverment 😅
They will register you as a friend and give you discounts and gifts in return. And you also will get a nice bonus on your social credit score when you move to China after the West will inevitably have collapsed.
The more I watch your video (2nd time) the more I am wanting to hold and use this product. The firmware 3.5.3 is a fantastic set of changes. As others have mentioned I also would be curious about a BSR version, but only if there was a switch to turn off/on to conserve battery like a “low power mode”. It would be even cooler if you could configure what you want to switch off in low power mode. Incredible value
Can't wait for your full review, Voja! So tempted to get the Go, but my NA1 is still going strong. Would a NA3 or the Go 10.3 make a significant difference in speed and latency compared with the NA1? Apart from the joy factor? You don't have yours anymore, I'm aware, but what would you reckon? Thx, xxx
I’m in the same position. It would really help my office workflow to use OneNote for work, along with some of the other MS Office 365 apps, but the latency on NA1 is too much. I’m always tempted by the TUC Pro but put off by the weight and thickness, as note taking is still my primary focus.
I make all my purchase decisions based on your review, and it's always worth the wait. Well done again.
Watching bitterly with my note air 3 which I love in hand! I almost never use the backlight and now I am tormented😭
I can't wait to see your follow up to this video! I didn't even know this was coming. I've wanted a device like this for awhile and was torn as to which I liked most. This device makes the decision easier for sure! I hope it is more durable than the remarkable 2. I see a lot of people with damaged devices because it is so fragile. I wanted something thin like this but with extra features like a syncable calendar. Finally.
42:22 KUDOS for still having and knowing how to use a vernier caliper, very old school, and way too many people have no idea what they are let alone how to use them!!!!! BRAVO!!!
Thank you! I don't think I could be without one, I use it quite often :)
Parchment, they are going for Parchment since it is the classic form of high quality paper.
Oh, it’s a parchment texture. Good call…. Good call indeed.
Spot on! Thank you 😁
The no front light is disappointing. I'll pass waiting for the microsd and light on it then i will definitely buy.
Sounds like you want to look into the Note Air 3 then.
Wonder when we'll have realtime refreshrate.
Fantastic video. Now I just have to refresh every day waiting for the full review. Thanks.
45:05 He has a really happy smile. 😂
Busy week, didn't have a chance to respond after receiving mine the day after this unboxing... I understand why you posted a glowing assessment! Lacking your experience with Android (IOS user since iPhone 3GS), I'm still learning what to remove or minimize in the UI to reduce distraction. Still, it feels very streamlined, and I don't miss the front light. The v3.5.3 firmware is already a big step up from the NA3C I tried out in January. Love the insert menu in Notes, but wish that access to Freemark worked across more apps. Sadly, the case is not lefty-friendly. Of course, I represent just 10% of the public, so that won't affect 90% of users.
For a long time I've been looking for an e-ink device with as few layers between the screen as possible, for the best visual quality. It is looking like my search is finally over.
I want to use it for manga especially. I know Boox devices didn't support dithering unless you switched to a faster, more ghosted refresh rate. Is that still the case, or is there a setting for dithering independent of refresh rate mode? Dithering is a must for any image viewing or else there is severe banding in the image, but I also want the most, non-ghosted refresh at the same time.
Edit: Kind of answering my own question here, but at ua-cam.com/video/aPK8vXr-nYY/v-deo.html I see you select an option called "Image smoothing" for dithering. That is great to see.
Boox Go 10.3 300ppi weighs 365g, almost exactly same as Fujitsu Quaderno 13.3 207ppi (368g) which is a lot larger screen? Why same weight, why couldn't they make it lighter I wonder?
Because it has a metal frame, because it is using an HD Carta screen, which is a glass panel screen, and Quaderno uses a Mobius Flexible screen, which is plastic and lighter, and lastly, because Quaderno has a smaller battery than the Go 10.3.
Great video! I'm debating whether to get the Boox Go 10.3 now or hold out for the Supernote A5X2. I have never owned an e-ink tablet. I have an iPad but don't like to use it for note-taking. Given that I'm looking mainly for a note-taking device, which one would you recommend? The price on the Boox is awesome, and I'm assuming that the Supernote will be a lot more expensive (since the A6X2 is already more expensive). How does the writing experience on these devices compare to an iPad (with a paperlike)?
Sounds like a supernote competitor.
Hello, I would like to know if you can create hyperlinked objects that can take you from page to page? Maybe you can do a demos of the capabilities of the notes and even audio notes? That would be amazing! Thank you for the review
Now if only they made a 7" device with a black-and-white screen like this... it would be my perfect day-to-day companion.
@28:38 even through the camera and my LCD screen the effect of the panel being right at the front was apparent. I was dead set on getting the Note Air 3 Plus, but I can see the advantage of removing the frontlight layer. Looking forward to your in depth review and eventually a comparison between the Go 10.3 and the upcoming NA3+. That will be a tough decision.
Thanks for such a great review as always. Order is placed :) It might only be a first impression, but it looks almost perfect from everything that you showed already.
I noticed the magnet is stronger if you point the pen tip up and position the pen so that it's tip is close to top of the device.
How does the ghosting and scrolling compare to the Tab X and the Tab Ultra, that have BSR?
I skipped some parts (thanks for the bookmarks 🤗). I noticed an error in the transition of segments around the 45 minute mark. Just so you know ☺ Other than that: Keep up the good work!
Finally pulled the trigger to get one. Thank you for showing manga and visual books. Can finally see how nice it looks ✨
Thank you so much for this. Like others i have been waiting on this. Mine comes in next week. I have the RM2 and love it. Just thinking i will replace my Scribe with this.
I think that's exactly my plan too 🤔 I have a Nova Air 2 for reading and this looks better (or at least more flexible/open) than my Scribe for notes.
@@cosmonzSounds like a plan.
A great look at a potential RM2 killer.
The things I would prefer; a card slot to expand the storage. A case with a light attachment, for late night use. A slight increase in thickness and maybe increased battery size would be fine. Removable would be icing on the cake.
Be interesting to see the Supernote reaction to this
Maybe I need to check on the Note 3 (see you did a video on it)
Do you think this will be as good as the Supernote A5X2? I'm holding out for that, but got myself a Scribe in the meantime. One thing that puts me off Boox, is the rapid output of devices - I'd hate to buy Go 10.3, only to find it obsolete within months.
I doubt the supernote will be as good as this... I just returned my a6x2, then tried lenovo smart paper and now I bought this - my reason for returning the supernote is that in terms of build quality it's nowhere near this (or the leonvo, that one had very nice hardware too)
@@adam29334 Maybe so, but Boox don't make devices for the long term. I tend to keep my devices for almost a decade on average.
I still have and use my Poke 2, which has been with me now for over 4 years and it has the current update version, same as my Note Air 3C. In my book, that is a good support period, and quite long term.
Hi Voya, is the slow responsiveness the main difference to the Note series of BOOX?
That's what I thought. The note is more of an overall tablet replacement, capable of note taking but also general use that you would on a tablet, whereas the GO series has note taking and reading as its main purpose. The GO is thinner and lighter, with a 300 PPI screen.
@@carloareaser yeah I'm using the Boox for PDF annotation and reading.
And the GO doesn't have a front light, therefore it's a better experience when writing on it.
Good video. Would love to see a comparison between writing and reading books between this and the Note Air 3C . :)
Does this support Apple and Amazon ebooks, both with DRMs?
My guess is that it would support Amazon with the kindle app but not Apple because they are a closed ecosystem system. Anyone feel free to contradict me if I’m wrong
Why cant i find a Boox Air 3 monochrome anywhere?
❤ thanks! Is it possible to take notes in the landscape mode... and are any landscape templates available with plain lines.. could you show this by chance. I would like to use more the whole width of the screen size in landscape mode... thanks again for your amazing work and contribution😊
Yes it is possible, and yes they are included. I'll be sure to show that in the review :)
Great. Video. Ive had mine for about a week. Ive also own the remarkable 2 and the scribe.
At first, I didn't like the Boox software,but loved the device, but eventually i learned its quirks and have now fully made the switch.
Just curious which writing experience do you the most? Or more specifically how does the feel of writing on this device compare to the writing on the Scribe. Which one do you prefer?
What app do you use to annotate PDF files?
@@mzmel1 I also use a Scribe on a regular basis, so I'm chiming in, I have put the Scribe and the Go one next to the other, and tried interchangeably the pens in both of them, I can barely feel the difference, the sensation to me is 98% the same, but at the same time I like better the Go as a writing device, the lack of light was a struggle for my brain at the beginning but I got used to it, my conclusion after 3 days of heavy use is: all my writing goes to the Go for now on, the reading though stays on the Scribe if it is handy, if not I can still read on the Go. ps: I should note that eventhough the screen is supposedly the same in both devices, when I view the same book, same page, etc... the quality on the Go is way better, the edges are way sharper, maybe the distance between the screen and the surface also helps with clarity and contrast.
@@Peepeh this was sooooooo helpful. I love the feeling of writing on the Scribe but now that I understand how useful writing on an eink tablet is I really want something with a file system that’s searchable. You sold me. Thanks!!!
@@mzmel1 😃
Thanks for many great reviews ❤
Thank you very much for the support!
Just got a Boox 10.3 Go . I have to say I am very disappointed in it. It is absolutely GARBAGE at annotating PDFs. To the point of being useless. Its Notes app is also slow and clunky. I cant help but feel that the reviews of this device have not been rigorous and it has been hype-train over thorough analysis. Happy to discuss. But for anyone doing PDF markdown this is a No Go device.
Could you maybe add some specifics? It often happens that users who are new to Boox platform assume things incorrectly, and don't read the user manual, and then they miss out on functionalities that do exist, or simply don't know how to perform certain tasks. I say this, because Boox NeoReader has one of the (if not the) best pdf annotation functionalities, so that could be the case here.
I currently have a Kindle Scribe but have been wanting something that has better syncing and writing tools. I have read that the pen lag is noticeable on Boox compared with the Scribe. Looking forward to getting this but that is my concern.
Which Boox device? Tab Ultra and Tab Ultra C Pro have virtually identical writing latency as the Scribe, while the Note Air 3C is faster than the Scribe. Keep in mind that we are talking about 1ms or less differences here, so not something that you can easily notice.
@@MyDeepGuide The Note Air 3 B/W. I read the lag is noticeable coming from the Scribe. It has the same processor as the Go 10.3 but I guess the 3C has that processor too. I will get the Go in a few days so I will test it out. BTW, love your videos.
Thanks!😁
Interested to know when you're planning to get the full review out.
Does the air3c cover work for that one? Maybe it works and you will be very happy 😁
Unfortunately no, neither the size nor the magnetic configuration is cross compatible between the two.
@@MyDeepGuide that's a bummer...
This is exciting, though all I want is an ereader. But I need a much larger storage capacity for all my ebooks - or an sd card to expand it. 64GB is way too small. Maybe the next iteration 😊.
Do you have any recommendations on how to reduce all the clutter on the boox note screen? I come from Remarkable and my biggest grip with boox is the screen space wasted to toolbars.
Can it do handwriting to text?
Can it do calculations on it?
Looks so sleek! I want this in a 12+ inch form factor. Is there any customization of the pressure curve?
I'm torn between this and the Note Air 3c
Great vid! How's typing on it with a keyboard? Any lag?
But I was in the middle of something!
Guess it can all wait for 50 minutes.
%#&%%$@#@ WHY NOT ENABLE TILT!!!
Compromise bug fix, because the tilt code was causing crashes. To be fixed later?
@@steverolfeca Oh, thank you. I really hope they will!
I wanna know if you don't mind. the screen is different between the boox note air 3 and Boox Go 10.3. I mean not the color, as far as I know the boox note air 3 has the pre-installed screen protector that make to get paper like feeling in note taking and can remove with hand easily. This is the one thing I don't like. I think it is no premium setup. so, in boox go 10.3, it has a screen protector or non-removable paper-like screen. Also I wanna know also, in low light conditions, the Boox goes 10.3's brightness, what happens with the screen brightness when you use it in low light situations?
Neither have a pre installed screen protector. Both have a laminated surface of the screen itself to be the way it is.
And again, no testing of the writing with the cover on to see how the magnets affect the digitizer... Come on, now!
This will be tested in the in-depth review. This was, as the title says, unboxing and the first impressions.
The writting latency looks good, but I have read some reviews saying that the difference wrt to remarkable 2 is noticeable. Do you confirm that feeling?
Yes, I can confirm, and for my taste Go 10.3 feels a lot better all together when I compare them back to back with the same pen. Remarkable 2 feels more glassy and harder when compared to the Go 10.3.
but the most important question is which pen exept of the original pen can i use
Any EMR pen.
Can you print from the GO series?
Yes, since it has Google Play, you can install a printer service and print directly from the device.
@MyDeepGuide can you play about with typing on this device, please. I've just tried it out on the default notes app, and in Microsoft Word, and the lag is really jarring. Are you aware of any way yo improve this? Thanks :)
@@gavinwebb have you tried typing in Speed mode?
@@probalint yes, that does the job :)
I don't know if you can answer my question or maybe it's a dumb question. Do you know if you can work with texts other than English on these devices? Like an Arabic or Persian script? Thanks for any info.
Note that I'm using a Boox Note Air 2 device, not the Go, but the system is essentially the same from what I've seen except some cosmetics, so I don't believe they've removed languages.
Seriously? UA-cam removed my first comment?
Shortly, yes, but.
I don't read these languages, but you can set system language to Arabic, you can download any writing app (like MS Word) or keyboard if the native ones don't support your specific variant well enough, and if I connect a physical keyboard with USB or bluetooth, there's Arabic and two versions of Persian in the layout options.
BUT NOTE that apps you download are rarely optimized for e-ink screens so they can lag and have other bugs especially with pen input - typing is OK - and that some functions aren't available in those languages, like handwriting recognition (turning it to print style text.)
@@5idi Thank you for that info my friend. I really appreciate it.
I bought one from Amazon of course so I can always return it

Voja, when you close-up the text at 17:31, what I see is not crisp, sharp text but serrated, fuzzy lines and curves, especially of the letters like e, p, o etc. It doesn't seem to be 300 ppi. Is it because one of the weird view-modes of Boox?
Well done for stepping back from your strange first thoughts video where this device was “identical” to the Remarkable, to the extent that you suggested it would never be released for legal reasons (albeit it would have been nice to admit outright that you made a mistake). That was a bizarre stance to take on such an interesting release. I think the lesson to be learned here is not to be too militant in your thoughts until you get hands on - for better or worse you have a great influence in this space, so ill chosen words can change a lot of buying decisions.
There is nothing strange or bizarre about that. If you are attempting to make a case that this device is not copying the RM2 design, then you really need to reevaluate your objectivity.
If you compare this device to literally any other device on the market, the only other devices that it would be most similar to would be the Remarkable 2 and the Huawei Matepad Paper, but the Matepad Paper has an equal frame and some more differences to make it stand out further from either of these two. So, if you really are serious about what you are suggesting here, you should check why it is exactly that you are unwilling to call a spade a spade.
Please read what I said again rather than leap again on your defensive horse. In the first video you said “identical”, which it clearly isn’t. In this one you said “heavily inspired by”, which it clearly is. The former would be illegal, the latter perfectly fine, and what the tech industry does on a regular basis.
I have read carefully what you wrote, and I have actually re-watched my video that you are referencing, and I never used the word "identical". So I don't know who you are quoting here in your quotation marks, but in this case, it's not me.
If you prefer, then “carbon copy”, “copy paste”. You know what you said anyway. You ask for viewer feedback and opinion, but then attack them for it!
I challenged what you said with facts and expressed my opinion on the matter. In my second reply I fact checked your statements, which were incorrect. Where is the attack?
As for the "carbon copy", yes that is what I said and that is exactly the reason why in the conclusion of this video, I explicitly said that it is not a carbon copy.
Too thin with a sharp edge and poor pen attachments are a disappointment. Hope they fix this for the next version even if it costs more. $380 is super cheap for a daily use device that lasts for years. Add $50 - $100 more and fix these issues.
I'm pretty sure that the edge will dull down due to use, as it is already now starting to be less sharp. But I agree, the magnets for the pen are a big miss.
@@MyDeepGuide Will see, some year, what reMarkable does next. I would be surprised if they make these mistakes.
@@MyDeepGuide is the magnet inside the stylus or a spot on the Go? If it's in the stylus, is there another stylus with a stronger magnet that could work? If it's in the Go, is the problem with the magnet strength or the stylus material? Just trying to work out a better combo, because I'd lose that thing the first day! Thanks for the work you do.
