Dasung has come up with a cheaper version of its 13.3-inch Paperlike monitor. Named the Paperlike HD, the monitor lacks a touchscreen interface and is no frontlight included. The monitor has been priced at 3,999 yuan and is the cheapest in the Paperlike series of monitors, where the top model – the Paperlike HD-FT – features both a touch interface and frontlight. There is the intermediate Paperlike HD-F, which is not touch-enabled but comes with a front-lit display.
One of the most significant advantages of the new Paperlike HD e-paper monitor is that the display is now more apparent than ever, which can be attributed to the missing touchscreen layer on top. This, however, will require buyers to adjust their workplace antics, mainly if they are used to working with a touch-enabled monitor. Further, since no backlight support is available, users will have to rely entirely on external light sources to allow for optimum visibility.
Almost every other specs remain the same. That includes the 13.3-inch E Ink display having a 2200 x 1650 pixels resolution. The Dasung Turbo high-speed refresh technology is also standard on all three versions. All the models sport the Type-C and Mini-HDMI interface for connecting to external devices. However, the top-of-the-line Paperlike HD-FT is the heaviest at 640 grams, while the two cheaper models weigh 580 grams.
The Paperlike HD can be ordered via the Good e-Reader Store for $683 and all of the other models, such as the The Paperlike HD-F, which has a front-light for $748, while the Paperlike HD-FT with front-light and touchscreen will set you back $798.99. All of our prices are more affordable than ordering from Dasung directly.
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.
