Onyx Boox M96 Universe PDF Review (+Video)
Most E Ink ebook readers don’t make very good PDF readers. But the Onyx Boox M96 is an exception. The combination of the large 9.7-inch screen and capable PDF software make it a solid choice for PDF reading. In fact the Onyx Boox M96 is easily the best E Ink PDF reader that I’ve reviewed. […]
