Hi Kit! I'm 39. Own a 10 people business. Burned out a few times and I tend to be a little bit all over the place. My experience is exactly as you described it: started with the Nova Air 2 and have been using it intensively for months to plan, write, think and learn. I'm craving the extra productivity so I just ordered the Tab Ultra C ❤.

Thanks for the video, I really enjoy yours, you are very balanced in your reviews and give more than just a review, like the discussion on toxic-productivity. Thanks for these and keep them coming :)

Hi Kit, I am 69 and enjoy your videos. Picked a Supernote A5 a few months ago and love it. I use it for writing my sermons and teaching. Easier to correct mistakes and add thoughts somewhere in the middle of my notes if i think of another thought i would like to add.. Again, love your videos and used one of your comparison videos to go with the Supernote.

Hi Kit, From Boox range, my 1st has been Nova Air 2 and I’ve been using it extensively at work. Then most recently I acquired Boox Tab X. And you made me buy it! Glad you did it though. I don’t carry Tab X to work, but it mostly stays on my writing table at home beside the computer

Hi Love, I went with the AX5 and I totally love it. I do love buying these types of treats so at some point I will have too many. Much like my collection of books. Next up the RM2, then the KS. I am now trying to decide which one to get for my husband. He likes the SN. But it has to be easy to use or he will never pick it up. So I am leaning towards a Boox. What would you suggest?
I have to thank you for your videos. You are a great help.
Side note: I find myself watching just for the music. I wish you would list the artists I love every track.

Hi Kit! I'm Sergio from Italy and i 've been listening to your reviews for a long time. I want to buy a boox device and my first choice would be the note air 2+ that i would prefer over the ultra and the X for its weight and over the nova for the larger screen. I heard about an event planned by onyx for the 5th of may so I will wait till that date for my purchase. Thanks for your advices!

What notes app do you use with BOOX? the default out of box one or something like one note?
And which pen do you recommend for it? Default or something different?

[bowzerdude]

Would you not be better to buy the note air for just a little bit more?

Kit, how old did you say you are? I only caught "7." 😅

I started using e-ink with around 2006 with the iRex iLiad. A really great device and ahead of it's time.

I always knew that e-books and Eink will be somehow big and important. And it's a great way to get and learn as much information as you want. So, somebody who is learning today has it a lot of better than someone 30 years ago. At least in theory.

I am not convinced that a single device will make you more productive. It depends on your learning habits. I do have a mobile phone, but I only use the basic functions and for audiobooks. I do have a Twitter account, but I don't 'invest' hours every day in it.

Furthermore, I was always a bit of an outlier with my information seeking and reading plenty of books. A lot of my colleagues mainly use the search engines for getting fast answers.

So if you want to go deep and concentrate on a topic, you have to learn and train your habits. That works with our without an Eink tablet.
