So a few weeks ago Onyx started selling screen protectors for the Onyx Boox Note and the Onyx Boox Max2 after some reports of the stylus causing light scratches on the screen. Luckily there aren’t any scratches on my Note’s screen so there must be some other variable involved, but it certainly is happening to […]

The Onyx Boox Note and Sony DPT-CP1 are two of the first devices to feature a 10.3-inch flexible E Ink screen, along with Remarkable (but it’s more of a notebook than an ereader). On the surface the Boox Note and Sony CP1 appear quite similar. They both have the same screen, both have styluses for […]

Sony’s latest 10.3-inch Digital Paper device was released in the US last week. The Sony DPT-CP1 is pretty much exactly the same as the 13.3-inch Sony DPT-RP1 that was released last year.

I’ve been testing out the new Onyx Boox Note and so far I’m impressed by how much nicer it is than previous Onyx devices that I’ve reviewed. The hardware has been upgraded and they finally updated the Android version to 6.0 so it runs a lot smoother than earlier models. I’m especially surprised by how […]

One of the main changes with the new 9.7-inch iPad that was recently released for 2018 is the added support for the Apple Pencil. Previously you had to shell out big bucks for an iPad Pro to get that luxury, but now Apple’s entry-level model is capable of the same kind of note-taking and drawing […]
