BOOX Tab X C 13.3" Tab X C Gray 2025
The Boox Tab X C receives mixed feedback. Many users praise its large 13.3-inch screen, excellent for reading PDFs and note-taking, with improved color e-ink and handwriting recognition. However, significant complaints include a dark screen, poor battery life, sluggish interface, ghosting, and a writing feel described as "skating on glass." The high price and limited app compatibility are also common concerns, making it a niche device best suited for focused productivity rather than general tablet use.
Pros

- Improved color e-ink display
- Good handwriting recognition
- Android OS for app flexibility
- Lightweight and thin design
Cons
- Dark screen with muted colors
- Poor battery life for some users
- Sluggish and laggy interface
- Ghosting issues
- Unacceptable writing feel (skating on glass)
