What would a solarpunk smartphone with today's tech be like?

This is more of an aesthetics & functionality answer than a best-business-practices one (though I would also like to see more companies with Fairphone-esc business practices of course), but I've been really fixated on this same question lately and this is the answer I've been gravitating toward: Har

Which E-Ink Phone should i buy? (Advice wanted)

Bigme Hibreak Pro. I've had it a year, it works great (there were a lot of bugs in the beginning, but not anymore), it does everything a regular smartphone does but without being distracting. It's also a great e-reader and easy on the eyes. I prefer the b&w over the color because the screen is nicer

My post-TCL NXTPAPER Android Downgrade

No, without front light. I mean temperature of white wihtout front light. I dont know what other people complain about. I received a few system updates through the few months and I use it as daily phone. I had more issues with Google pixel 8 pro than Bigme Hi Break Pro. I have enough common sense to

HiBreak Pro Color vs. Boox Palma 2 Pro: Does it actually work as a phone replacement?

I've been DD the bigme hibreak pro color for about 5 months. You can still mindlessly scroll, trust me. But, it's slightly less engaging, and more annoying and slower than a normal phone. Anything you want to do takes a little longer. You have to baby it. Based on other reports, It could break at an

Is the Boox Palma 2 pro for me?

E-ink’s slow refresh causes lag/ghosting; small screen limits drawing, no front camera. The Bigme HiBreak Pro has native calling but no stylus support. It works as a full replacement if you accept these tradeoffs; otherwise, it’s best as a secondary device.

Warning: Broken E-Ink Screens Are Expensive and Can't Be Repaired

I also have ADHD. I use at work the Bigme Wink color B251 25.3 inchs monitor -- big difference for my eyes!! I also love this Bigme Hi Break color, the refresh rate is not so bad.

The state of e-ink readers as a technology, and how in some respects, the peak was over a decade ago.

There's been a massive improvement on the best devices in recent years via the refresh software. Bigme's is now brilliant and Boox's ok. Much smoother and faster with less ghosting during use on their premium devices. Which has in turn opened up other areas for eink like being able to use apps never

e-ink devices: one causes eye pain, another doesn’t — anyone with similar experienc

The problem is that there aren't really tests that show this. I don't mean to be rude to doctors, but if you bring this up with them they will likely not know what you are talking about and tell you that you just need to blink more. This topic has unfortunately not been studied enough. It is a somet

How many of you use an E-ink phone?

I use the Bigme HiBreak Pro as my daily driver. I used the black and white version for 6 months and upgraded to the color version in December. Sure, it's slower than an iPhone, it has little glitches here and there which are annoying, but overall, it works perfectly fine. I do everything on it, soci

Are these even worth it?

So are you talking about just the color devices, or w-ink tablets in general? Ive had the Bigme HiBreak color and Remarkable. I use my ReMarkable daily for notetaking at work and it has been terrific. The HiBreak was a bust though lol.
