Onyx Boox Max Lumi

com and a full review of the Onyx Max Lumi, this is Peter.

* No handwriting recognition, no copy and paste (like RM2), no OCR (except for the stars). * Bad battery life. They claim that the device can run for three weeks without wifi/bluetooth, but with my heavy writing, I need to charge the device AND the pen (yes, one needs to charge the pen) every four, five days or so. With wifi on, the tablet drains very quickly.

The product is good, if a little expensive, but thats expected since it's so niche. What wasn't expected is that for almost a thousand dollars full retail, Boox sent me a refurbished unit that wasn't even properly memory wiped. It still has the last buyer's icloud details and a bunch of things they ...

For a long time I wanted to have an electronic ink device that had Android and could be used as a monitor. Traditional LCDs with LEDs give me sensitivity like most of you, while in the basic Kindle I have (the most recent) I do not have any discomfort and I can spend hours and hours reading with it. So I decided to buy the Onyx Boox Lumi. I have had it for days and it has quite good qualities.

I am a musician and purchased Boox Pro specifically for sheet music page turning with an external pedal. Some two software updates ago Boox has broke reliable page turning using external BT pedal. Now intermittently page turning gets stuck and only gets resolved by pressing front buttons. Getting th...

I've ended up with half a dozen e-ink tablets/readers of various sizes and use them as much as possible. I actually really enjoy surfing the web on my Boox Max Lumi. I do most of my casual surfing on it now. The refresh speed and ghosting don't bother me either, similar to what you said it just helps me go at what I consider a more healthy pace.

- Like another reviewer, I bought this for reading sheet music. I found a e-ink version of Mobile Sheets on their website. - Keyboard. Since it is big, typing on the virtual keyboard is more difficult. I wish they had a compact keyboard. Although, I love the feature where I can just handwrite and le...

That being said, they don’t do great with PDFs (ePubs etc are great on smaller devices) and you’d really need a larger device (at least 10”), depending on the original size of the page of the document. If you’d like to continue using moon+reader or using android, you have options like the Boox Note Air or Boox Note 3 or Boox Max Lumi, also the Boyue Likebook P10 or Likebook Mimas.

Some reviewers seem to be confused about the capabilities/purpose of this device and have not reviewed it favorably; it is not an iPad and doesn't pretend to be. This is a device primarily for note taking, e-books, and PDF reading without eye strain. There are a number of other capabilities (2nd mon...

Based on previous experiences, I prioritised size and storage size, and bought the Onyx BOOX Max Lumi, a 13.3" Android-based ebook reader. I was concerned it would be _too_ big but it's ultimately a very appropriate size for me. I could easily see stepping down to a 10" device, and possibly 8" if I were strictly reading text-dominant books (few illustrations or figures). Onyx produces a number of similar products from about 6" on up in size.
