Onyx Boox has confirmed with Good e-Reader that the company will release their new Note Pro e-reader in the middle of April. The device is currently in mass production the the retail packaging is currently in development.
The Note PRO features a 10.3 inch E-ink Mobius and Carta display and a resolution of 1872×1404 and 227 PPI. It has a WACOM screen for the stylus and a capacitive touchscreen for interactions involving swipes and gestures. The PRO will also feature the same glass based display as the Note Plus, so the screen will not get damaged no matter how hard you press on the stylus, and doesn’t really need a screen protector.
Underneath the hood is a 1.6GHZ quad core processor, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, dual speakers, mic, Bluetooth 4.0, USB C and WIFI. Onyx was the first e-reader company to employ a quad processor and it dramatically increases the performance of navigating around the device, surfing the internet, turning the pages of a book or using Android apps.
The big selling point of the Note Pro, is that it has a color temperature system and a front-lit display, so you can finally use it at night or in low light conditions. The cost of the Note PRO is $599 and it is currently available as a pre-order on Good e-Reader. It will ship instantly on the release date to all of our customers.
Also, we have just created a new Onyx Boox category from the News dropdown menu. If you are really interested in all things Onyx, feel free to check it out.
