    The Boox Nova 7.8" line of devices just got their latest member, and it is the Nova Air. Inside is the same device as the Nova 3, but it is now presented to the world in a brand new design and carries with it some long-awaited improvements. Let's unbox the review loan unit sent to me by Boox and see what the first impressions are :)

    Thanks for a wonderful unboxing video, much appreciate your input on these devices. I really like the old Nova 2/3 and Note "canvas/fabric" type covers like you show on your Nova 2 and Note devices. I am a little nervous about this shiny new cover for Nova Air -- do you think this new shiny surface will scratch easily or does it seem durable enough to resist scratches from everyday use? Thanks again

    What’s cool is that I ordered a Back to School special of the Boox Note Air and it came with the screen protector pre-installed and the newer version of the pencil with a stronger magnet and same design except it is black. I love what they are doing with the “Air series”.

    This looks great. Can you flip the orientation of the unit 180 degrees for us lefties so that we could get the pen magnet on the left, and the cover's page change buttons on the right? I installed my Mobiscribe "taco" cover "upside down" to get the pen holder on the left, and it's great.

  • @pauline7099
    @pauline7099 2 роки тому +4

    I really love the new design of this device. I’ve got the nova 3 and I won’t change it for this one. The fact is that, in my experience with another device, buttons to turn pages just low down the battery quickest than if you don’t use it. And also, the face button (menu button ?) is missing and it’s a bad thing because if you press it a long time on nova 3, it turns the light on and it’s very very useful for me.
    Thanks Voja for all your videos, you’re the best and I really like your job 😊

    Looks good, thank you for showing it to us. Do you think it will work with MDO? Also looking for advice considering the size/usefulness compared to Note Air. Do you feel it work for left handed people? I was really hoping they would offer that new magnetic cover in some other finishes (leather etc...). The chrome look is a no-go for me.

  • @mscargill1
    @mscargill1 2 роки тому +1

    Great review. It is a great pity they didn’t use the same colour for the magnetic case and pencil. I’m not a fan of the speckled back and actually think I would prefer the the black bezel I have on my Nova 3 to the silver grey/white bezel on the Nova Air. Also, I don’t find my Nova 3 too bulky so the charm of the Nova Air’s thinness factor would have to be the decisive factor for me. Plus, no serious hit on battery life!
    I will look forward to your full in-depth review. I wonder if the magnetic case may end up having a drawback - it detracts from the ultra thin charm of the device when you’re using it as an e-reader, meaning that you would always want to remove it from the case when using it to read, meaning that you end up carrying around a case as additional protection or both the case and the Nova Air in the sleeve which starts to become a little less than ideal? Food for thought! :)

    I heard that the processor is slightly different (upgraded from the note 3 even if the specs are the same) which may explain what you’re feeling regarding the speed. I do wish they kept the larger battery but I don’t think it’s a deal breaker for those looking for a 7.8” device.
    I wish it had a G-sensor though which would have the buttons make sense and if I’m not mistaken I also would like the folio to attach to the back (someone said if you fold it over it doesn’t hold on magnetically onto the back cover which seems to be the case from your video too).

    Looking at their timeline, the first Note was released early in 2018. Note 2 was released in November 2019 and The Note 3 in November 2020. So far they have "only" released two devices this year, compared to 8 devices last year, 6 of which were released towards the end of the year. So there is hope for further releases soon. Me, I don't want to wait any longer now but since I'm looking for a mid size paper feel sketching tablet, I may have to.

    Great unboxing and first impressions. Waiting for your review when I heard this. They should have started with 10.3. [1] Is the writing surface different from Note Air? Is it different only because of the pre-applied screen protector? Beneath the surface they (Note Air, Nova Air) all same? [2] I was thinking for some time to buy a note taking device, but worried 7.8” will be too small. May be good for reading but not for constant writing. What is your view? Thanks.

    Great. Too bad the next page button doesn't seem to create a new page when taking notes. This option would definitetly make touch control unuseful when writing. The way to add page is always a bit boring in a meeting, especially with those small screens. Maybe a software upgrade suggestion.

    Thinking about buying an Ipad Mini to take notes.
    6th gen Mini to be announced on 14-Sep is expected to be bigger and closer to 9 inches.
    It will allow same files to be to accessed/developed in Ipad pro as well as in Mini too.
    Good notes helps in OCR.
    I have a 5th gen Ipad Pro. After much thought to buy an e-ink for notes I purchased it.
    Feel a side tablet of smaller size will help. Thought again to buy an e-Ink tablet.
    But these e-Ink tablets are stand alone cannot be edited in other platforms.
    I found keeping a low light can simulate an e-Ink tablet with much bigger functionality.
    Better to invest in same platforms rather than add new one.
    E-Ink companies are charging too much for too low functionality.
    I like E-Ink but not want to own. Probably if the eInk companies reduces the rate, I may reconsider.
    None of the reviewers talk about cross-platform (ios, android, windows) software to access/edit/develop files.
    This will help e-Ink tablets sell much more.

    I was so excited all the way up until you flipped the cover back on the device and I heard the noise it makes when the front and back rub together. It made my teeth hurt and gave me chills. That is an autistic sensory issue on my part, but that would literally be enough to stop me from buying if they were bundled. It seems like it isn't though. I usually just toss my mobiscribe origin in my purse naked. Do you think the boox nove air is durable enough to treat it like that?

    • @MyDeepGuide

    Choice of color is very much a matter of taste. For ereaders i prefer black borders as the contrast pulls my eye to the screen making the reading experience much more immersive. White borders pull my eyrs away form the screen and very distracting for me. And with all those magnets in the device and in the sleeve and in the case, people with automatic watches should be a bit worried.

    Great video,thanks! One of my impressions from the b&w nova3 was that the warm light was very red/pink, making for an unnatural look in most mixed environments. It seemed ok outdoors and with 2700k LED light, but anything in between wasn't great. That's the main reason i returned it.
    Any thoughts on this one? sounds like it's the same display hardware

    Hope onyx boox has a trade-in program where I can trade my old boox device to a newer model. I want to avoid techie waste as much as possible. It would be very impractical for me to buy this one no matter how much I want to if I still have a workable 2 year old nova pro. Although I'm slightly dying inside seeing how good nova air looks. 😢

    Although the device looks nice, the smaller battery is a MAJOR concern, especially with ALL of the problems Onyx devices are having with batteries at about 1 year of ownership. My Poke 2 is already dead after a year, and my Nova 2 is starting to show battery problems also (Drops of 10% after 15-20 minutes of reading).
    It may be good to do a refresher review of Boox devices after a year of use. Lots of users, myself included, have been seeing atrocious battery problems.

    • @MyDeepGuide
      @MyDeepGuide  2 роки тому +8

      My Nova 2 is now a year and a half old, no battery issues at all. My Note Air is 10 months old, no battery issues what so ever. My Poke 2 is about a year and 4 months old, no battery issues either. What I do know, for a fact, is that users who do experience battery issues, almost always, have did things that you are not supposed to do with batteries, such as, leave plugged in overnight in a speed charger, always charge to 100% and deplete the battery to below 30%, allow the battery to overheat, by charging it and leaving the device exposed to direct sunlight, or performing demanding tasks while charging the device, or using the device while it is plugged in and charging for extended periods of time, or regularity. If these are done on a regular basis, any battery will absolutely have to lose capacity after about a year or so. This is true with laptops, phones, tablets, smart watches, any batteries.

      @@MyDeepGuide I didn't do any of those things. Neither did all the people in multiple online forums who have reported similar challenges with Onyx batteries.
      Funny thing is I own Samsung devices, Apple devices, Likebook ereaders, Kindle ereaders, etc and never experienced battery problems in the first year of owning the device.
      I also own an Onyx Boox Note Air, and have not had challenges with that battery either. Nor have I had any problems with my Onyx Boox Note pro.
      The first step in solving a problem is acknowledging the problem, and based on large numbers of owners of these devices, there are clearly battery issues.
      It is not a conspiracy or anything people are simply making up. We like our devices, we want to enjoy them, but when a device cannot start due to a dead battery, it is irrational to blame the consumer.

      @@MyDeepGuide sadly but there is battery concern on onyx devices. this devices are not cheap. and there are new man.
      They are not yet devices that have been used for a long time by large masses like their competitors. Even the examples you gave are not more than 2 years old. There are users who have used Kindle and Kobo devices for more than 5 years. I think the biggest load for the battery is the scenarios that force the battery as you said. And at the beginning of them, unfortunately, comes the android operating system. from long usage scenario, android based eink devices will lose a lot of customers due to battery. The expectation from these devices is not multi-tasking. show the book and/or allow note taking. It would be a problem if the battery of the device I paid as much as the ipad dies after 2 or 3 years. The iPad I'm using has been working for 7 years and it doesn't even get updates, but it still works.
      Of course, these devices should not be compared with tablets. But companies should also understand this. They should make long-term products. A strategy to pull out a lot of crops every year doesn't sound very reliable. I have note 3 in my shopping cart, my only concern is that note 4 will be announced in 5 or 6 months, so I'm waiting. 2 years using onyx devices

      I don't understand why would the reading experience be any different if you get to read a book that's on a different language?

      Since you are here, do you know if you are able to choose the color that you are writing and annotating in and have it appear as that color when the notes are exported? I saw in one video that was an option on one of the Onyx Boox devices but I can’t remember which one I saw that in.

      Can you show us what it looks like to read Kindle books on the app and your thoughts on the experience on the Nova Air?
      Here are my thoughts on the Kindle Oasis vs Nova Air based on reading but I would love to see a video comparison.
      I like that the kindle has physical buttons and is connected to the Amazon/kindle ecosystem (I only read Kindle books) but I don’t like that it doesn’t have speakers for listening to audio books without headphones and that you cannot annotate in color.
      I like that the Nova air has a stylus, has speakers, might be able to annotate in color (which may be visible on exported notes), can use different reading apps, and can read multiple book formats.
      The Nova Air and Kindle Oasis are in the same price range but I’m having trouble deciding-though I am leaning towards the Nova Air.
