Made a video on my experience with the Minimal Phone if you're contemplating buying.
After seeing countless reactions to the MP01, so much of the user's feelings toward the device are dependent on their expectations going in and what they hope to use the device for. 1st - Minimal Phone uses a generic e-paper panel, not the proprietary (and more costly) e-ink. It is lower quality tha

Any updates on Hisense A10?
Lol, no offense but I already owned a bigme phone in the past (HiBreak Pro) those things are atrocious. One of the buggiest, most broken pieces of techs I have ever used in my life. And the company behind it doesn’t even care to fix them. There are some bugs (like the android auto dpi bug) present s

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

Any chances of color Palma soon?
BigMe HiBreak Pro colour is rumoured to be coming around Christmas (non pro version already out). That's an e-ink phone (as in it's that form factor and can take a sim card). Bigme get justified stick for some of their tablet software but the current (b&w) HiBreak Pro was generally well received.

Hibreak pro or Minimal phone?
I have the HiBreak Pro and don't have a microphone problem. Seems like I get firmware updates every 60 days or so. The updates are rolling, so if anyone reports a bug, Bigme stops all updates, fixes the bug, then releases a new update.

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

Beetwen hibreak pro, palma 2 pro and viwoods reader c what's the better option to our eyes
Isn't Bigme a real horrible software? I've had Bigme HiBreak Color and the software is quite crappy. I still have Boox Palma 2 Pro, but if I'm honest, I don't like the screen so much - it's noticably darker than my Hisense A7 CC's screen and therefore I still prefer my good old Hisense over all newe

Something that's helped me ditch the smartphone: making my own PDA.
Not sure if this is what Op uses but I've been running a Bigme HiBreak Pro (B&w) as my phone almost a year now and I love it - the software kinks are worked out now but the hardware isn't quite "mainstream phone manufacturer" levels of reliable yet so your mileage may vary

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
