The Onyx Boox Note is designed to write and edit PDF files, but it also does a bunch of other things. Many people who are thinking about buying the Note are wondering how the note taking experience functions and what type of options are available. Additionally, there are millions of manga readers out there and this device runs Android 6.0 so lots of popular apps such as Manga Rock are fully compatible.
The Onyx Boox Note features a 10.3 e-reader with a flexible E-ink Carta display. It has a resolution of 1872×1404 and 227 PPI. The panel is comprised of Electromagnetic WACOM and a capacitive layer, which means you can use the accompanied stylus or use your fingers to interact with the screen or flip pages of an e-book.
Underneath the hood is a 1.6GHZ quad core processor, 2GB of RAM, dual speakers, mic, Bluetooth and USB C. I have never seen an e-reader before with a quad core processor and this is a major selling point. The entire software experience is utterly amazing, apps instantly load and drawing has minimal latency. I was certainly not disappointed with any delays, which was surprising.
