Battery life etc is nice, but what I really do like with e-ink, is that core principle of reflecting light instead of generating it while fighting the ambiant light. A nice comparison between an iPad and an e-ink device would be outside in broad intense daylight where the advantages of e-ink would show.

The problem with videos like this one is that it's hard to see the benefits of an eink screen while watching a video of one on an LCD or Oled

[UrbanAnywhere]

Thanks this is helpful. I hope they come out with a 12" or larger version of the Onyx Ultra C

[yuvilio]

Great comparison. Also a good opportunity window to compare color e-ink with color RLCD, especially wth Eyemoo's tablet (already reviewed by the channel) currently in a Kickstarter.

Should do an iPad vs boox ultra c comparison outdoors under bright sun! 😁

There's a lot of talk in this video about the great battery-charge life of the Tab Ultra C without any actual demonstration of that. I've heard reports that the battery-charge life on the Tab Ultra C isn't all that great, apparently having something to do with it having a GPU. I only really want the Tab Ultra C to read, take notes, and to draft. I won't be watching videos whatsoever. I need the color when reading scientific texts with charts that use color for discrimination. That's almost about it. I think I'd only ever get the Tab Ultra C over the iPad if the Tab Ultra C battery charge lasted a week or more. Unfortunately, the Onyx return policy isn't so great as to let you buy and then return if you're not satisfied.

Son productos diferentes. Buena esa pantalla de Eink. Me gustaría eso si que tuviese un fondo más blanco... se ve un poco oscuro.

When I write with my Apple Pencil, the slippery nature of it makes me feel like I have to write faster than I normally would. It’s sort of like walking down a hill where you don’t have full control of how big your steps are and it feels awkward.

Would have been nice to see more of the drawing and reading options

How much worse is the writing on the Tab Ultra C compared with other (colour) e-ink devices? The 'almost paper-like' writing is important for me and one major selling point of e-ink devices, imo. I guess if the writing feel of the Ultra C is only marginally better than writing on a standard screen glass tablet, I will have to wait longer for my dream note-taking device (coloured e-ink with almost paper-like writing feel and modern Android).

Can you use the Ultra C to teach by hooking it up to a projector? Does it run Powerpoint?

[farleylai]

Time for nano textured iPad Pro vs latest Color E-Ink

[davefink]

Part two: phones. iPhone vs the best full-android, Google Play e-ink phone (for US carriers, if possible)?

[SanderEvers]

Honestly, even with wifi off, an e-reader does use a little bit of power for memory/cpu usage. It will die within 2-3 months if you don't charge it.

i am at that dilemma with the prices of these e-ink devices its hard to justify the purchase when its near the price of an ipad air in some cases, sure the pen is more expensive but it is a one time purchase and the added bonus is that the ipad can do much much more, and will keep having software updates, for how many years will onyx or bigme keep churning updates for their devices? what will happen to all those google play store enabled android 11 devices when we hit android 15 (given that we are already in 13), if they cost the same you are getting a shorter life span in one device compared to the other, with less capabilities

[quekvincent]

can i pair a bluetooth earphone with it?

[DeeJay-eflr]

The battery will "last until the dinosaurs come back"? Seriously? I own a BOOX Tab X and even if I turn off WLAN, Bluetooth, and the backlight, the battery lasts less than 20 hours. It still consumes around 300mA/h. The tablet is equipped with a 6300mA battery, so it can last logically around 21 hours. If what you are saying is a truth, Onyx has improved drastically the battery consumption of the E-Ink tablets.

[shekharruler]

Has onyx degraded the pen paper feel in ultra c compared to b&w ultra or it is the same glass feeling in b&w ultra too?

[sandman_slim]

I've considered buying an iPad every year.

And every year I buy a new ereader instead.

Goes to show there is a market. Mainly those of us looking to get away from social media and distractions.

Focus is the name of the game.

Big question for me, is it IP68 rated? Really looking for a update to my Oasis with more functionality, but nothing yet...
