Does anyone regret getting a color ereader
I got the Boox Go 7 Colour Gen II and my biggest regret is that I didn’t get the BW instead. Lovely device but the screen is just too dark (and the colour too muddy/washed out to make seeing cover thumbnails in colour worth it). But I do have to say that I’m one of those people who prefers to read w

Should I choose a Kobo Libra color or Boox Go7?
I have had Kindle Paperwhites and the Colorsoft. I have the KLC now and have had the Boox Go7 BW (and color, a couple years ago) in the past (just sold it this week actually). I love my KLC. The screen door effect does exist, but all you have to do is increase the weight of the text in your books an

Boox Go 7 with new inksense pen May 4, 2025
Woah, so tappy, clicky and wobbly, I am never ever going to buy this. Thx alot for the video though! If THIS is the way to go, hopefully my EMR based Boox devices will last forever... such a bad decision of e-ink / Onyx.

Is a go color 7 worth it
i have boox go colour 7 gen 2 and i don’t like it. the screen is dark bc it is coloured e-ink, and that meant having screen lights on all the time to be able to read (unless you’re under the sun). for reading manga and webtoon, it is terrible especially if it is coloured. the ghosting, lag, and disp

PocketBook Era Lite | Carta 1300
While you are partly right with your points, I'll have to disagree with others. I have the Era Lite now for 24 hours and I am thinking of returning it... the reader is still slow, yes. But what really annoys me is that even with Carta 1300 and a recessed screen the contrast is still miles behind Kob

Does anyone regret getting a color ereader
A second return. Got a Boox Go 7 Gen II hoping to also read comics on it but decided to send back and get an iPad mini. Don’t like dragging my full iPad around but the colors just don’t work and the b&w experience was sub par. Felt the same about Palma 2 vs Palma pro and kept the b&w

Boox Go 7 vs Kobo Libra Colour — keep or return? (still stuck 😭)
OOOP, did a search and you're right, that may have been from a review I watched when they had just come out. However, that doesnt change that the writing experience/stylus reviews/ stylus functionality have not been positive for the boox go 7

Boox Go 7 vs Kobo Libra Colour — keep or return? (still stuck 😭)
thanks for your reply! I guess i am worried by battery drain because of constantly needing the frontlight on but battery life is not great on the boox. At first i though the boox go 7 was darker than expected and I needed more light than anticipated but I am realizing it was just darker in the room

PocketBook vs Kobo vs Kindle (real opinions only)
I’ve had the chance to use several e-readers over the past months: PocketBook Verse Pro, PocketBook Era BW, Kobo Clara BW, BOOX Go 6, and BOOX Go 7. Out of all of them, the Kobo Clara BW ended up being my favorite. What made the difference for me was the screen quality, the simplicity of the interfa

Is there anything as fast as bigme hibreak pro BW but in 6 or 7 inches need BW
that speed on bigme comes from their newer processor. the boox go 7 bw is close but not quite as snappy. if you want that same feel look at meebook p78 pro or the new bigme b751 bw which has the same chip as your hibreak. Bigme B751 bw is basically the bigger version of what you have. just know the
