Just extraordinary. There's not much to say outside of watching the review.

This has it all, and essentially takes the reigns away from Hisense.

Google play, SD card, dual speakers, and much more

It's not a phone, and i don't need it to be. The win for me is that i can install kindle, nook, google e-reads, libby... i cant do any of that with a kindle or nook, and this costs about what it would to buy both. AND i can install notion, duolingo, readle and access google docs. To top it off, no disturbing blue-light at the end of the day. Total win

I think with some future feature as a sim card, one can use this phone to do digital detox while having access to Internet when one really has to.

if only it had data...would have been an instant switch from my regular phone

Honestly, a SIM card and a stylus(Preferably housed internally) and I’m 100% sold.

To tell you the truth, I liked everything you managed to show. Even with many differences in relation to current cell phones, I would definitely love to use the Palma as my main cell phone for the rest of my life. Something that I found curious was the moment you zoomed in, the zoom is much improved. It is possible to see all the advances in this screen technology through this video.

I would've ditched the camera and sell it cheaper instead, this is not replacing a phone which everyone already has with a camera, so why bother ?

I’ve been using it for almost a week. It’s great. Still some bugs, but overall the product is very satisfying. It’s even faster than I thought.

This was perfect for my Bluetooth keyboard which has a crank for putting tablets on it . I use it to write notes in obsidian . This form factor has truly been a game changer wonderful love it love it!

I have been usung this device for just over a week now. It does what I expect to this kind of device to do pretty well except for one major problem. It drains battery like crazy when Wi-Fi is on. Mine, in particular, the battery is drained 5% every hour regardless of whether it is connected or not as long as Wi-Fi is on. When Wi-Fi is on but not connected, the problem worsens. When I take this device outside with Wi-Fi ON, it actually heats up and drains battery badly. May be the device is trying to "look for" a connection but this had never happened with Kindle, Hisense A5, or any other smartphones I have. I wonder if anyone experienced similar issue.

Been using it for a few days now. It is very impressive. Would be even more so if they used a K3 panel and allowed notes. I'm always jotting things on paper pads, and being able to do that on the Palma would be great. This is their first foray into this form factor, and Onyx will learn from this. Future versions will be even more amazing.

Love it but for that price I would have expected at least pen support if not including an actual pen.

$279.99 + $49.99 Shipping and handling.

Little too pricey for this kind of device I think. At this price range there are a lot of bigger and better options available.

Woahhh I'm so glad I found your channel!!! People rarely talk about eink readers these days this channel is a blessing!

[SkepticalCaveman]

Impressive, the small screen size can be mitigated by using it in landscape mode, choose fit to width and then page down instead of scrolling, I used to do it all the time with my old "Nook Simple Touch" making it very usable to read PDF files despite it's small screen and low resolution.

[cckcoffee]

Using Palma these days, what just I can say is satisfied very much. Speed is a key. Finally available e-ink device can be compared to a regular mobile phone recently for several years. And also the aux physical key helps to refresh the display. And Google Play store support works well. 128GB ROM to put all my books. I am happy to use this e-ink device. And hope we can have a color e-ink and cheap device in the future.

[xomm]

I'm surprised that scrolling menus are still a thing on e-ink devices, it feels like it would be better paginate them on a low refresh rate display.

[Clownconspirator]

I definitely don't need a camera on an ereader. The size is perfect though.

[owd]

Gorgeous device. Really, really, really want a SIM-enabled version of this.

[gs]

Its incredible to me to go back and watch the last pebble smartwatch and see how their display looks extremely fluid and the way they used the animations to account for the low refresh rate. in comparison with these new e-paper devices that all look choppy.

[vesselinkrastev]

I don't care for the form factor, but it does seem like the user experience is fairly painless. Last time I looked into Boox devices my impression was that they were more trouble than it's worth. I'm still concerned about software support in the long term. I'll continue to hold on to my Kindle while it works, but I'll keep an eye on these Android e-ink devices.
