This is a very educational video on how to make a review! It's very objective and comprehensive. I can imagine all the work you've done for this. Most reviews are about preferences of the reviewer, but here, you have made it easier for viewers to actually have a purchasing decision for ourselves. I've made mine and confident to not have regrets because of the experience you have showcased here. Thank you! This is a virtual experience that is very close to the viewer actually having that experience. This is very much needed in this time of pandemic and online buying. Keep it up!
Wow, man! Thanks for your fast reply. I want to buy one of these 2 extraordinary e-book readers. But I need one that I can read books longer without getting my eyes tired and take notes and make drawings at times. That's what I need. Which one would you propose for my need? Thanks in advance.
If you need light and a polyvalent tool : Note Air2 or Note5 For Note-taking : Supernote A5X For sketching : Remarkable 2 But all of those devices are good choices.
I think at the very end of the video, when you drew the conclusions, you swapped the styluses between the two readers. Otherwise... great review. Thank you!
Great review! Thanks! But isn't is the Note 3 the one that has the stylus with the eraser, (while Note AIr has the new magnetic stylus without eraser)?
Good question...These are products at a price equivalent to mid/top-of-the-range smartphones. I think their lifespan should be equivalent. Not sure if it's 5 years...
Honestly, I don't know...Technicaly the Note 3 has screws (the Note Air does not) that means that it can be unmounted. Is the battery accessible and can be easily replaced ? only ONYX can answer...🤷🏻♂️
Oh my, I was decided on buying the note air but then I watched your review. Like the form factor of the air better (kinda fed up with the old form factor of my nova pro) and its gyroscope capability but then the faster processor, fingerprint scan, better speaker on the note 3 make me having second thoughts now. 😥
which one is better if you want to use PDF books? and from your knowledge which device is best for pdf any devices i mean not only these ones but have a big screen from your experience?
I didn't put any on any of them! I probably won't keep both and I hesitate to put down the ones provided or buy a higher quality one with a better paper feel...🤔
A really great review, but still don't know what to choose. Air got beauty design and lower price but dont know about writing experience - it seems to be the same...
There is no bad choice. Both are great devices with the same software. The writing experience can drasticaly change with a screen protector and alternatives pen and nibs.
Merci beaucoup! Mon Français n'est pas bon I am afraid... a couple questions: 1) when you read a large pdf file (a book like the "arduino for dummies" seen in the video for example) is there any difference in the reading experience (like responsiveness etc)? 2) which one felt more paper-like in your eyes, the glass surface of the air or the plastic of the note 3?
For reading pdfs and navigating in documents, there is no difference. The Note Air has a matte surface but I didn't put the screen protectors on any of them. In my opinion, the paper feel comes more with a good screen protector and nibs.
Very nice and thorough review. Two questions: 1. Has the Note 3 always had backlighting? For some reason I thought it did not 2. So you accidently press the home button on the Note 3 when writing? I had a Lumi and friend I accidently pressed it often.
Thank you ! 1. Yes. Do you mean there was a version of the Note 3 without backlighting ? 2. Really ? For me it never happened. The button is enough "hard" to avoid that.
Note was without a light and has similar design. They added the light in Note 2 or 3, not sure. As for the button, I do have the same accidental presses and get out of the note I'm writing.
Air looks like a book and I like it. Also screen is more white, another bonus. Copying files is not important for most users, at least for them who wants to read books. What I have notice is that air loads pictures and websites quicker but maybe it’s a software issue. The only bonus note 3 has are speakers. Good review
Thank you very much for this review. Small question... Voya in My Deep Guide compared these two, and mentioned that the Note Air has a clearer screen with more contrast. Can you confirm this is true? On your video it was as if the Note 3 had a slightly better contrast...
Cela fait plaisir de voir une revue aussi détaillé sur deux produits (dont j'hésite profondément) en particulier quand elle est réalisée par un compatriote ;) Beau travail continues comme ça !!! Par rapport au fini mat du air note, je suis assez surpris vue que l'écran est en verre alors que le note 3 est en plastique. J'ai l'impression que la qualité d'écriture est meilleure intrinsèquement avec le note 3 qu'avec le note air (mais cela peut changer en rajoutant une protection en plastique et en changeant de stylet). Globalement, j'ai l'impression que le note 3 domine sur bcp de choses. La différence c'est qu'il n'a pas de gyroscope pour tourner l'écran automatiquement comme pour le note air. Dirais tu que le fini de surface en plastique du note 3 est dans la tendance mat ou plutôt reflet brillant ? Par rapport au rafraichissement d'écran du note air par un geste, de quoi s'agit-il exactement comme type de mouvement ? Est ce que le note 3 peut le faire aussi ? Merci pour ton aide et encore bravo!
Merci ! En fait le module "display" fourni par e-ink du Note Air est un Mobius flexible avec que celui du Note Air est en verre, plus lourd, plus rigide, plus fragile mais moins cher ! Sauf qu'on n'écrit pas directement sur ce display, le constructeur (ici ONYX) rajoute un certain nombre de couches jusqu'au front panel puis pour terminer on ajoute ou pas un film protecteur d'écran. C'est lui qui determine au final la sensation de "grattement" de l'écriture papier et qui participe pour l'essentiel à l'aspect brillant ou mat final. Donc oui, en sortie d'usine il y a une petite différence entre les deux modèles mais ce sont bien la protection d'écran + le stylet et sa mine qui produisent l'essentiel de la sensation d'écriture (pour une latence et une distance à l'encre identique).
Le Note 3 a de meilleurs composants, oui. Sauf le gyroscope. Et surtout un design moins fun. Le "gesture" qui étonnamment manque sur le Note 3 est celui qui permet de raddraichier l'écran par un "swipe" de bas en haut.
Ca fait plaisir un francais qui propose des test tres detailles sur les ebook ! J'ai un Onyx Max mais je cherche un ebook plus petit pour prendre des notes et annoter des pdf, lequel tu recommandes ?
Hello Merci ! Si la sensation "papier" n'est pas primordiale et que tu fais de la prise de notes écrites sans trop de dessins, le Note 3 ou le Air se valent. Sinon le Remarkable 2. Mais surtout un stylet à ton gout.
How would you describe the writing experience/paper-like feeling of the note 3 compared to the Remarkable 2? And, would you say the latency of the ink is distracting when writing? Thanks!
If you like the "paper-feel" scratchy sensation, the RM2 is better. The brushes are also better in my opinion, especialy the pencil. OK the RM2 is also faster but the latency is not distracting at all even on the BOOX devices.
the most impressive review and comparison I've seen so far, thank you for your work. However I'm confused with the stylus - in the conclusion you say that Note Air comes with stylus with an eraser, but everywhere I go on amazon I don't see such stylus.
Thanks for your great review 👌 I like to buy note 3 but I also need the one more comfortable for my eyes, so does the more matte screen for note air make a great difference while using it? Thanks in advance ☺
Hello. Thank you ! The difference in the screen is not noticeable unless you have the both devices side by side and that you really want to find one. And you can adjust that with a screen protector.
Bonjour, Merci pour ce comparatif instructif. Je crois comprendre, pour la prise de notes avec une sensation papier type RM2, que vous conseillez un protecteur d'écran. Plus précisément, de quel produit parlez-vous ? Par ailleurs, je n'ai pas bien compris si le Note 3 dispose d'une fonction pour l'utilisation avec un éclairage faible comme le Note Air. Merci.
Oui. A la base les produits Onyx n'ont pas une sensation d'écriture papier comme la RM2. Il faut ajouter un film sur l'écran. Voja de MyDeepGuide a produits plusieurs vidéos pour comparer ces films pour le Note Air, je vous recommande d'aller voir sa chaîne.
Oui. L'éclairage sur le Note 3 est le même que sur le Note Air. Réglable indépendamment en intensité sur deux niveaux : les couleurs chaudes et les couleurs froides.
Thanks a lot for the review merci bcp. In your opinion which one has the best writing experience if we add also the remarkable 2 ? The problem of boox and remarkable devices are you can not test them in shops :(
Hi ! The quick answer for me is that if you prefer the note-taking and paper experience it's the remarkable. If you prefer document reading and annotation functions, the ONYX is ahead of the game.
Merci pour la vidéo. Pour lire des mangas les 2 se valent sur le confort de lecture ? A priori on peut compenser le stockage par une clé usb c otg ? (pour lire directement dessus ou bien transférer dans le stockage interne si j'ai bien compris)
Bonjour, Sur le book note air, je souhaite principalement faire de la prise de note voir écrire de longs textes. Est il réellement facile ensuite de les transformer en World ? La reconnaissance de l'écriture vous parait correct ? Merci . J'avoue hésiter entre celui ci et le remarkable2 mais l'absence de rétroéclairage sur le remarkable est vraiment un gros point noir je trouve. Merci de vos réponses.
Bonjour, je ne me sers quasiment pas de la reconnaissance de caractère native, que ce soit sur le note Air ou le RM2. Je pense que les résultats seront bien meilleurs en exportant les notes vers un outil d'OCR dédié. Pour l'éclairage ca dépend des usages : si vous avez à travailler ou lire en environnement faiblement lumineux ou la nuit et qu'un éclairage extérieur d'appoint n'est pas possible ou vous embête alors il vaut mieux se trouver vers les Onyx.
@@onemoreink3654 That's 1 way. But the custom duties and shipping are 48% of the price. So really ups the cost. I have been saving for an e-reader after I broke my boyue t 62d. Haven't saved enough yet. Thanks any way.
Thanks for the test. In comparison with Remarkable 2, which one do your prefer ? Remarkable 2 or Onyx Boox Note air ? Thanks for your point of view. PS : Très bonne chaine ! Je me suis abonné du coup !
Merci! Le Remarkable 2 est dédié prise de note/dessin avec des fonctions de lecture limitées. Les ONYX sont plus polyvalents et très adaptés pour la lecture. Si l'usage est essentiellement de la prise de note avec une envie d'être au plus proche de l'écriture papier, le Remarkable est meilleur. Pour un usage régulier qui ne serait pas que celui-là, les ONYX Note Air ou Note 3 sont plus ouverts. Dans tous les cas ce sont de très bons produits mais attention à la déception potentielle avec une Remarkable.
@@LeoDequito It says that for the sole purpose of taking notes, the remarkable is better. But for reading and working on documents the onyx has far more options. ...or something along those lines. I'm dutch and my French isn't that good
Thank you so much for such a complete, detailed and technical review. Congratulations for an amazing job with two of the most relevant yet similar eink devices nowadays. I got the Note 3 because I value more the specs and performance over the looks, still love the black finish. For just $70 extra I believe it's worth the investment. Is there any paper-like screen protector that might improve paper and pen feel? The only ones I see are for iPads. Also, would any other stylus help? I returned a Staedtler Noris Jumbo because it felt like a gel pen. Great grip though.
Thank you for your support! Apart from the original screen protections, there is to my knowledge no alternative dedicated to these formats and ONYX Products. Some adapt "like-paper" screen protectors made for other products (iPads). You have to cut out but it seems feasible with a good result. I like the Staedtler Jumbo's grip too but its problem is its nib, which is too slippery for my taste. It seems that you can easily replace it with a more adapted to a paper feel like the remarkable or the original ONYX that I find not so bad.
Great review! It's a fantastic tool, but with a high risk of losing information. Pay $500 for something that breaks easy and lose all the work. We need a drop test like $1000 cellphones. I prefer my paper notebook, it will never break if i hit it, and works with 50 cent pen. But may be buy a Onyx.
I understand but If you are scared about that you can configure an automatic save in the cloud. Imagine a cup of coffee fall on your paper notebook, its lose also
@@onemoreink3654 I really have a fixation on the new Lumi2, it reminds me of my first 10 ’’ Kindle e-reader, the best and most versatile. But it is a very expensive option, it has taken a long time to arrive, I think it really is my longed-for electronic reading system ... after 20 years. Thank you for your report, it is neutral, technically perfect, excellent in short. I subscribe of course. See ya
I am not sure...the metal can take stripes, deform, the colours can go away. The plastic in Note 3 seems to me to be of very good quality and very durable.

Very in-depth review.
Good analysis of real-life use.
Thanks for your time on this.
Thank you !
This is my first time on your channel. This is an awesome review. Very thorough. I'll definitely be back.
Thank you !
Fantastic comparison video, the best ive seen for eink devices
Thank you. Those are old devices now. Look at the SuperNote or the new boox devices.
That weight difference is significant; it's a reader, after all, and I think weight is a major feature of the product.
I agree, it has to be taken into account. All the 10"3 devices with cover/folio + pen are almost 600 grams...
Such a detailed comparison. Thanks so much taking the effort of doing it. 🙏🏽 Respect. I am from Sri Lanka.
Thank you very much for watching ! (From France 🙂)
Vidéo incroyablement complète et informative. Super comparatif à tous les niveaux. Très éclairante. Merci !
Merci ! Depuis le matériel Onyx à évolué. Regardez les Note Air 2 et Note 5. Et considérez aussi le Supernote A5X dans ce format !
C'est génial cette analyse de la position des LED au photoshop!!!
Merci ! Et le calcul de la latence avec un logiciel d'analyse d'image...😅 Je pense que je vais faire une vidéo explicative dessus.😉
Your review is so indepth and informative. Very well done!!

I found the this review very informative and well done. What is the stylus that you recommend ?

Great information
Can the Boox text search within PDF, text search within folders and text to speech?
Very well done with this review!
Thank you !
Sacré bleu! What an informative video.
What about the reparibility? It's possible to change the battery in this devices? I'm worry about the battery in 5 years....

Haha. None is a bad choice.
I think they are very similar, I didn't know about note 3 but, all in all, I'd still go for note air (which costs 100 bucks less, by the way)
The difference is often and mainly the form factor. What i show in my video is often not significative in a day to day use.
Usualy i don't comment, but i have to thank you for accourate review
Thank you very much !
which one is better if you want to use PDF books? and from your knowledge which device is best for pdf any devices i mean not only these ones but have a big screen from your experience?
Both Note 3 and Note Air are equal for pdfs. What size are your pdfs ? Maybe consider 13"3 devices if most are in A4 format.
Thanks. Very helpful and thorough review.
Thank you!
Fantastic review. Thank you.

Between the Note 3 and Air, i have kept the Air but for design considerations.
@@onemoreink3654 thats the great answer! Thanks :)
Great comparison video. Which one will survive a drop?
Thx! None...The Supernote A5X is the only one to claim a drop-resistant construction.
@@onemoreink3654 wow, I thot with its flexible screen, the note 3 will fare better than the air in a drop test. Thanks
Theoretically it should be better but there are also fragile layer up to the e-ink mobius screen, even on the note 3.
From your experience which is better?
In terms of performances the Note 3. No doubt if it's your main criteria.
Excellent review thank you.
I wish I spoke French as well as you speak English!
Haha. Thank you ! (And deepl too !)
It's possible to put password on the note air?
Hello ! Thanks for watching ! Yes, of course. The Note 3 has in addition the fingerprint reader function that can substitute the password.
I like the look of the note air better.
Merci beaucoup! Mon Français n'est pas bon I am afraid... a couple questions:

How good is palm rejection for drawing with android apps? Have you tried using the free Sketchbook Pro app?
Palm rejection works fine. But none external sketching app correctly works with e-ink devices : too much latency.
Air looks like a book and I like it. Also screen is more white, another bonus. Copying files is not important for most users, at least for them who wants to read books. What I have notice is that air loads pictures and websites quicker but maybe it’s a software issue. The only bonus note 3 has are speakers. Good review
incredibly thorough!

Hello
Does the stylus with earaser also works on the note air ??? Thanks for the good video :-)
Thx. Yes, it works.
Nice review,
So what device would you suggest for reading purposes. I need to read a few text books and some research papers.
Both Note Air and Note3 are good readers. For academic paper maybe 10"3 is a bit small.
Very detailed review, Appreicate your effort
Is it possible to download pdf from browser?
Yes. As they are android devices, you can directly download pdfs or other files from the browser.

Probably. I'd say that in terms of fragility, the Note 3 is on the middle between the Supernote A5X and the Note Air & the Remarkable 2.

Also, would any other stylus help? I returned a Staedtler Noris Jumbo because it felt like a gel pen. Great grip though.
Thank you for your support!
Apart from the original screen protections, there is to my knowledge no alternative dedicated to these formats and ONYX Products. Some adapt "like-paper" screen protectors made for other products (iPads). You have to cut out but it seems feasible with a good result.
I like the Staedtler Jumbo's grip too but its problem is its nib, which is too slippery for my taste. It seems that you can easily replace it with a more adapted to a paper feel like the remarkable or the original ONYX that I find not so bad.
Excuse me. Can i use boox note 3 stylus for boox note air?
Yes. All stylus compatible with Wacom emr technology can be used on the Note Air.
@@onemoreink3654 thanks you so much for your reply.
Great review!
It's a fantastic tool, but with a high risk of losing information.
Pay $500 for something that breaks easy and lose all the work.
We need a drop test like $1000 cellphones.
I prefer my paper notebook, it will never break if i hit it, and works with 50 cent pen.
But may be buy a Onyx.
I understand but If you are scared about that you can configure an automatic save in the cloud. Imagine a cup of coffee fall on your paper notebook, its lose also
You swapped the pens in the conclusion section

wow, so profesional :O
Thank you !
Great
Prices has just decreased as the new line is available for preorder (note Air 2 ans note 5). But imo those are still great products !
@@onemoreink3654 I really have a fixation on the new Lumi2, it reminds me of my first 10 ’’ Kindle e-reader, the best and most versatile. But it is a very expensive option, it has taken a long time to arrive, I think it really is my longed-for electronic reading system ... after 20 years. Thank you for your report, it is neutral, technically perfect, excellent in short. I subscribe of course. See ya
Note 3 is faster than note Air! I thought they both had the same upgraded cpu and DDR4 ram?
No reviews are telling how sharing notes by mail, because the process is ridiculous
The Air is more durable because the metal finish and ASAHI glass.
I am not sure...the metal can take stripes, deform, the colours can go away. The plastic in Note 3 seems to me to be of very good quality and very durable.
your voice like banes from batman
Haha. Next time i try the batman voice
Note3 design is lack luster comparing to the Air.
you are french
Yes
