Xiaomi has slashed the price of its Duokan E-book Pro II e-reader device, ITHome reported. While it was officially priced at 1299 Yuan, it came to be offered for 1199 yuan upon its release in March 2022.

The e-reader comes with a 3200mAh battery capacity, which promises several weeks of battery life at a time.
Beyond the hardware enhancements, the Xiaomi Duokan E-book Pro II offers a seamless reading experience with built-in Duokan reading support, WeChat reading compatibility, and a voice book search function.

With a keen interest in tech, I make it a point to keep myself updated on the latest developments in technology and gadgets. That includes smartphones or tablet devices but stretches to even AI and self-driven automobiles, the latter being my latest fad. Besides writing, I like watching videos, reading, listening to music, or experimenting with different recipes. The motion picture is another aspect that interests me a lot, and I'll likely make a film sometime in the future.
