I love this device purely because of the size. It’s apart of my daily carry and I’ve started to read so much more because I bring this wherever I go. There have been many times that I’ve been waiting on something or someone and instead of scrolling on social media I can just whip this out to read for a few minutes. I have the Boox nova 3 and it’s super light in comparison which also makes it easier to read comfortable in bed. Another benefit is that I can download useful apps since I don’t have a smart phone. If it was a phone it would literally be perfect. The OS is also faster than other e ink devices that I’ve used and the reading experience on kindle (the app I use the most) is very pleasant and fast.

Pocketable, super white and crisp screen, almost doesn’t need the frontlight. This phone sized eink tablet is the best thing that I have bought so far, I use it almost as a phone replacement to reduce my screen time and my eye strain, I’m typing this review on it, it’s very responsive, fast (as far as eink can be) and reading in here is absolutely amazing. Since it’s android you can use any app available in Google Play Store (even though not all apps are optimized to eink or even to B&W). Read more

The Boox Palma truly impresses with its great form factor, making it incredibly comfortable to hold and use. The reading experience is nothing short of amazing, leveraging e-ink technology for unparalleled eye comfort. What genuinely surprised me was how highly usable it is as an Android device; the screen updates at an incredibly fast speed for an e-ink display, making it surprisingly viable even for casual video watching (though, naturally, it's not truly recommended for that purpose). The battery life is incredible, lasting for ages on a single charge, around 4 or 5 days in my case with light usage. I also really loved the back texture, which adds a nice tactile feel despite the build. It uses a custom Android OS designed for high usability with large icons tailor made for its e-ink display, so very well thought out User Experience. Now for the caveats. A significant drawback is the lack of a SIM card slot, meaning it's only usable with WiFi. While this can be overcome with a mobile hotspot, it's a definite disappointment for anyone hoping to use it as a primary phone replacement; it's more accurately described as a phone companion. The build, while not terrible, does feel a bit cheap and plasticy. Lastly, a design note: I would recommend the black over the white model, as the light bleed is noticeably visible through the white bezels of the lighter version, which can detract from the experience. It's a great value for someone who is looking for a highly usable e-reader, though being able to use it with a data connection without needing to bring my primary phone would have been ideal. Overall, if you understand its limitations and want an exceptional e-ink reader with versatile Android capabilities in a pocketable form, the Boox Palma is an excellent choice. Read more

I got this for two reasons: To reduce eye strain and encourage me to read by having a very portable e-reader. To reduce doom-scrolling and distraction The Boox Palma works seamlessly as an Android device, with the caveat that you have to tweak settings on some apps, as they all use color differently. The Palma has a quick access tool for this. I have kept apps to a minimum on this device - just enough so I don't have to constantly swap out to my phone. The result is that I am less tempted to pick up the phone and waste time instead of reading. I also find myself loving this for audiobooks. I need to set up podcasts. I also like that it's offline when I'm not at home or at my desk. I could use my phone's hotspot but have decided not to. The Palma is pricey. It's also the best, most versatile e-reader I've every owned. Read more

Possiedo diversi ereader di ottima fattura, dei quali sono molto soddisfatta (Kindle, kobo libra color, kobo Clara 2e, boox go color 7). Ognuno di essi viene da me utilizzato in base alle si verse esigenze e rispettive caratteristiche. Ho deciso di prendere questo dispositivo per le uscite quotidiane, da mettere in borsa ogni giorno. Arriva ben imballato, scatola piccola di cartone con all'interno un pacchetto contenente la cover e la scatola del dispositivo. Cover bumper, quindi senza copertura frontale (per il mio utilizzo ho provveduto all'acquisto di una flip). Nella scatolina si trova il dispositivo e il cavetto USB c per la ricarica. Palma 2 si presenta con le dimensioni di uno smartphone (le stesse di un s24), impugnatura comoda, assolutamente non scivoloso anche senza custodia, perché fa il materiale di cui è costituito fa abbastanza grip. Peso molto leggero, 170 g. È una via di mezzo tra un ereader e un cellulare. Il dispositivo è pronto all'uso, si accende rapidamente e va impostata la lingua, ma in poco tempo è già fruibile. È molto prestante, fluido, veloce. Il display eink carta 1200 con risoluzione 300dpi, può essere settato in luminosità, contrasto e bilanciamento neri, in base alle proprie preferenze (eboox è nota per il grande volume dei suoi settaggio, ci sono davvero molte regolazioni tanto che a volte si fa un po' confusione e potrebbe esser utile cercare in rete quale sia il settaggio idoneo). Il display è davvero ottimo, pari alla carta. Effetto ghosting pari a zero con la tecnologia book super refresh, pagine che si caricano molto velocemente e fluide. Ha l'illuminazione frontale, quindi ben leggibile anche al buio senza affaticamento... Agli occhi non da per nulla fastidio. Si potrebbe, volendo ma abbiamo gli smartphone quindi non capisco l'utilità, vedere dei video impostando la giusta ottimizzazione dall'app YouTube. Essendo Android 13 based, è presente il play store, da impostare con il proprio account, dal quale poi poter scaricare tutte le app che vogliamo. Kindle, play libri, kobo, Audible funzionano molto bene. Ogni app, come dicevo prima, può essere ottimizzata a secondo dell'uso, quindi possiamo dare delle velocità diverse del refresh e bitrade a seconda di come verrà utilizzata. I 6 giga di ram permettono la velocità e le ottime prestazioni del palma, credo che di tutti, posso affermare, sia quello che si dimostra più fluido e comodo da leggere, nonostante le sue dimensioni! Sono rimasta molto molto sorpresa di questo e sarà sicuramente il mio compagno di viaggio inseparabile. Quindi perché non leggere con uno smartphone? Ci si potrebbe chiedere. Beh non è lo stesso. Prima di tutto per l'autonomia, spesso gli smartphone non arrivano a sera, si spengono e non si può nemmeno leggere a meno che non si abbia un carichino portatile a diaposizione. Il Palma dura anche due settimane se usato solo per leggere. Poi il display. Non ci sono problemi sotto il sole, al buio... Sempre molto nitido e chiaro, come una pagina di libro. Ha un sensore di impronte digitali, sul tasto laterale e una fotocamera per scanner zare documenti o codici qr. Un surplus, nel caso potesse servire. Aspetti negativi? Non ne trovo, però volendo esser precisi, un elemento a sfavore può essere il prezzo, anche se ogni euro lo vale tutto... Per il dispositivo molto ottimo e prestante che è. Mi ci trovo benissimo e lo consiglio vivamente, anche in rapporto agli altri. Read more

كنت اريد هاتف مع شريحة اتصال ولكن لا يوجد شي من هذا في الجهاز كانه تابلت في شكل هاتف! ماذا افعل الان Read more

DO NOT BUY I repeat, do not buy!! This is not a Kindle competitor, this is an extremely low quality manufacturer. The screen broke for absolutely no reason after 1 month of barely using the device. I Contacted the seller and they said it's not covered by warranty and want to charge me half the price of the device to fix the screen. I owned a kindle e-reader for 6 years and placed it in exactly the same backpack and it still works perfectly. I even have an extra protective Pouch for the Palma 2 but still the screen broke!! I also own a Remarkable 2 tablet for 3 years and also placed in the same backpack but never broke (even though it's 10 times larger). So me breaking the screen is absolutely unacceptable excuse by Boox as it was more protected than my other devices that last several years! Do not buy this, you will lose all your money. Go for a much cheaper kindle that will last longer, lots of people are complaining about the screen issue I wish I checked the reviews before falling for this scam. Thankfully Amazon returned and refunded my money. Read more

The screen is ULTRA sharp; backlight is great but I don’t use it myself. Have started reading again ; I have a lot of books on Kindle app and iBooks for iPad / iPhone but barely ever actually read them. This is a great portable reader and a good weight as well : stable, long battery and with a micro sd slot too if 128gb isn’t enough storage — for most people that’s more than ample for books especially.

Easy to read with E ink. I store movies on it to watch on flight. E-Books and medium app work as well. Night time news reading is not a strain Only thing I dislike is the absence of a 4g slot. Internet connectivity on the go would have made this a perfect reader Read more

Es un dispositivo maravilloso con más capacidades que un kindle normal. Siempre he tenido kindles desde la edición con teclado y son muy útiles. Sin embargo el boox palma, por su tamaño me ha permitido leer continuamente en lugares de tránsito como aeropuertos. La batería no dura como un kindle pero jamás me ha detenido de leer. Puedes escuchar audible, leer wikipedia de la mejor forma y más apps. Jamás he leído tanto como ahora. Lo recomiendo muchísimo. Read more

Super lightweight and portable because it's the size of a smartphone. Great resolution and detail for reading when using regal or HD display settings, or fast refreshing for browsing or video. Display has a light that the brightness and color temp can be automatic or manual. Android OS allows for using your favorite apps, like Libby and Kindle (and I also use an app to control my home devices like my wifi lights). Device has a back camera, but one drop and the camera glass is already shattered on mine. I like having this little device with me to allow me to read with little distraction and save my phone battery. It's wonderful for reading outside in the sun! If it wasn't exactly what I was wanting, the price would be too much. I hope it lasts! Read more

This is the best e-reader, it surpassed my expectations by a mile. It’s SO fast. The screen refreshes so quickly and you’re able to set different refresh rates for different apps. So you can have less ghosting for some apps and higher refresh rates for others. The size is perfect. It’s so light and easy to hold. Which makes it easier to read. Having the whole App Store available is great. I put a bunch of reading apps but also Spotify and Gmail and notion. Super useful. Read more
