What’s a tiny design flaw in an everyday object that quietly annoys you every single time you use it?

I swapped to an Onyx Boox from Kindle so i could take notes (school + work + old) and omg I audibly gasped when I saw both the power button AND charging port on the side so you could rest it upright while charging... never going back!

WARNING: Do NOT Buy Onyx BOOX. $500 Note Air5 C turned into a DEAD BRICK in less than a month, and support has completely GHOSTED me.

Over the years, I have owned and used: Note 5 Note Air 3C Tab X Go 10.3 Note Max Note Air 5C Go 7 Palma Pro 2 Go 10.3 II Lumi All worked flawlessly with zero issues. That being said, I buy them on Amazon, not from Boox directly, so I can easily return them if I need to.

Какую электронную книгу купить в 2026?

Киндл далеко не база. Часто жалуются на битые пиксели. И есть заморочки с загрузкой книг. Мне нравится Onyx Boox. По цене сопоставимы с Киндл. У меня Onyx Boox Go6 и Onyx Boox Palma2. Пальма очень удобная, самая любимая и лучшая для меня. Это как телефон на андроиде с eink экраном. Можно накатить лю

Onyx Boox will release Poke 7 on May 21st 2026

I thought I didn't need the buttons before getting my Boox Go 7, but now I will never go back. They are so convenient

I am primarily offline unless I’m returning or checking out a book on Libby. When connecting to my Google account, the device appears as “ Atil

Not today, e-waste! Boox sent me a new USB-C charging board for $6 out of warranty, can't believe it still works

Kudos to Onyx Boox for providing good customer service. I liked it a lot.

Thanks for sharing. I have a Boox Go Color 7 and have been happy with it and was even considering getting the newer version or a Palma. But seeing your experience definitely makes me reconsider because I don’t want to deal with crappy customer service. Are there any other android e-readers out there

Let's talk about Kobo and Kindle

I like this question. My bests have been PocketBook Verse Lite and Boox Go 6. I am curious about the Kobo Clara as well. The Verse Lite is my best because of all of the formats it takes (including NetGalley ARCs), battery life, dark mode and it supports multiple library cards. The Boox Go 6 is a run

Bought an Onyx Boox Go 7 - battery lasts 1–2 days. Should I get a Kindle Paperwhite and gift the Onyx?

I don't know about that one. My Boox Go 6 without WiFi or Bluetooth and with little night reading is able to last me a month of reading. I read for 1-2 hours per day.So I don't know what you're doing with your device or what apps you have installed, but this is ridiculous battery life on such a devi

I have 2 BOOX (Palma 1 and tab mini) never had any issue with them (and I’m going to get a Go 7). You just got a defective product, doesn’t mean the whole line up is trash. BOOX product quality is the best in the market IMO. The customer service may be trash, but so is kobo from my understanding.
