BOOX Note Max 13.3 No Frontlight B/W ePaper Notebook 300 PPI 6G 128G
The 13.3-inch 300 ppi E Ink screen without a front light delivers a sharp, paper-like feel, and the 2.8GHz octa-core CPU with BOOX Super Refresh ensures responsive stylus input at 4,096 pressure levels. Its 4.6mm aluminum body and 615g weight make it exceptionally portable for a large e-ink tablet, with Android 13 and 128GB for app flexibility. This device suits note-takers needing a vast, glare-free canvas, as its no-frills design and poor productivity score rule out tablet multitasking.
