![]() One feature found on some other Onyx E Ink products is missing here – the ability to extend a desktop PC and act as a second screen for a PC monitor, albeit a static E Ink screen. A super-fast X mode (just about) makes video watchable. Which you opt for – Normal, Speed and A2 – will come down to personal choice. ![]() Unlike most E Ink displays, the refresh speed here can be tweaked, with the result basically a trade-off between clarity and faster page turns. This is helped further in dark settings by edge LEDs that illuminate the display in either ‘warm’ or ‘cold’ light. In practice, reading books and documents is a rewarding experience, and far more comfortable than reading on an LCD tablet. The Onyx Boox Note Air’s anti-glare coating on the flat cover-lens reinforces our experience, but we’re not totally convinced about the Onyx Boox Note Air’s resolution.įor context, the latest iPhone 12 Pro comes with a screen resolution of 2532 x 1170 pixels but this much larger device manages just 1872 x 1404 pixels, for 227dpi. We love low-power, reflective E Ink displays – largely because they’re easy to read. There’s Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0 for file transfer (including a nice QR code feature for quick file uploads from a phone), plus 32GB of internal storage – there’s no SD card slot to expand upon that. Aside from a USB-C slot on its undercarriage and an on/off switch, there’s nothing else here. The Onyx Boox Note Air’s clean lines are accentuated by an almost total lack of physical features. Although not visible, LEDs sit around the device’s screen, acting as a front light. Its rear panel and front are prone to collecting greasy fingerprints, too.īuilt around a 10.3-inch E Ink Carta display, the Onyx has a bezel measuring barely 8mm on three of its four sides, and 27mm on the book-like spine. A well-built and solid device, the Onyx’s 229 x 195 x 5.8mm dimensions and 420g weight nevertheless make it feel slippery in the hand.
