Idk why people keep complaining boox is complicated and it takes time to get used to it

I just got the same device and I love it! With that said, I understand why people warn about complications: If you're new to e-readers AND android, then this device is not just a unbox and immediately start reading. You have to learn the navigation, android OS, how to get books, how to side load (BO

What is so bad about Boox ereaders?

So I have to say that this was not true for my Boox Go 7. I came on board expecting to have to install a bunch of apps, or at least replace what I presumed was going to be a crappy ereader/ui.... But no, the Boox Go 7 BW out of the box just functions as an ereader. There's no installing anything unl

The Kindle Oasis was peak e-reader

For folks who , like me , think that the oasis was the peak - please look into the Boox Go 7”. You might like it it’s identical form factor and functionality (with more ) would be great for you. I’m thinking about buying one but I am BROKE

The best e-reader for danmei?

I use a Boox Go 7, but any of the android e-readers could probably work just as well! On mine I use a light weight browser (eink-bro or fennec) for web hosted translations. You can enable Reader Mode at the top of the search bar to trim down the website page so it's just text and no extra webpage el

Boox VS. Bigme. Which is better?

This was something I weighed recently, trying to decide between Boox Go 7 and Bigme B7 - the Bigme devices sound very good on paper, but Boox seems to be a more common/mainstream brand. I ended up with the Boox - mostly because from what I could gather, it’s just more established and more polished i

Should I choose a Kobo Libra color or Boox Go7?

I have to Go 7, and I'm happy with it. Got it from Amazon for ease of return and purchased an extended warranty. The screen is nice, same or better than my old Kindle. It has warm light, buttons, slide to adjust lighting, etc. I've settled on having the Kindle, Pocketbook, Readera Premium, Libby, an

still deciding on a new ereader....

Pocketbooks run linux which means you can't download any apps or access kindle. You need one that runs android. Pocketbook might have one tablet that runs android, but I wouldn't recommend it. I'd reccomend First Boox, second Bigme, third Meebook. I have owned android ereaders from all 3 companies,

I exclusively read books through Libby (US). What ereader should I get?

I was in a similar situation and I went with a Boox Go 7 monochrome. I absolutely love it so far! It does take a bit of tweaking to get the settings right, and I found the UI confusing at first, but it was pretty easy to find the info I needed online.

Which e-reader is best for AO3?

Are you OK with just downloading and transferring files to it, or do you want to read online as well? Do you care about having a large well-organised library? I have a Boox Go 7, which runs Android (still eink though) and allows downloading apps. Browsing AO3 on a browser works very well (and page t

Kobo or Boox: Which did you choose? FAQ feedback appreciated.

I have a Boox Palma 2 pro and a Kobo Libra Colour. I was thinking yesterday how I wish I had an ereader that was both combined. So now I’m looking at the Boox go 7 lol. My main thing I love about the Boox is it runs android so I can copy and paste a quote directly into StoryGraph without switching d
