Onyx is going to be showing off a new six inch e-reader at the Hong Kong Electronics Fair called the Boox Poke. The big selling point is that it is the first six inch device that has a quad core processor and Android 6.0.
The Onyx Boox Poke will have a six inch E-Ink Carta display with a resolution of 1072×1448 with 300 PPI. Underneath the hood is a 1.2 GHZ quad core processor, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of internal storage, 2500 mAh battery, USB-C and Android 6.0.
There is no details yet when this will be available or how much it will cost. It remains to be seen if people will buy this six inch e-reader despite it having a high version of Android and some solid hardware specs.
