Not ready....
What can I say. The quality of this product revision was seriously abysmal! I currently have the After Glow 2 (C67ML Grey-Edition,e-ink Pearl, 212 PPI) and that one performed better! Backlit on my AfterGlow 2 was even, no random touches, it's absolutely perfect.I was excited to get this device but oh boy, it wasn't worth the wait at all. It was not worth it getting this device. Aside from the erratic behavior and somehow slower software compared to my AfterGlow 2, it was not adequate in terms of using it as a full-time reader. Some of my books wont even load, even when it states that they are within the supported format.The 300 ppi screen was a great bonus but if the software and hardware is quite flaky, then it's no use! Furthermore, the battery usage was quite terrible, even with the so-called 3000 MaH upgrade.This product was returned after much deliberation, with trying to fix and update it but failing to meet expectations.If you want a stable and straight to the point e-reader, I suggest you get a Kindle Paperwhite instead.

Avoid. Fragile screen. Kindle for Android app not functional with this.
Update 2 days later: Screen cracked while in jacket pocket for about 15 minutes. No major pressure or jarring. NOT RECOMMENDED. Screens this fragile need to be recalled. Kindle PaperWhite screens are nowhere near this fragile.Original review as follows:Pros:Awesome screen. Sometimes I read on this just to appreciate the text.Android based.Can run your favorite Android e-reader app (i prefer the Moon+ Reader interface but there are some minor display problems and background color tweaks that must be done inside the reader to optimize the experience).Not locked to Amazon Kindle ecosystem.Nice even white back light.Slightly smaller, lighter, and thinner than a Paper White (I suspect this is where the fragile screen complaints originate).Case is cardboard but a nice fit (use it, screens on e-ink readers scratch easily)Fits well in a PaperWhite case (but a paperwhite would not fit in a snug C67ML case).Great battery life with WiFi turned off.PDFs load well and look good but are obviously not ideal without text reflow given the somewhat small screen size.Cons:Slow to load large books with lots of links (bibles and bible commentaries).By default, it powers off every 15-30 minutes of inactivity and requires about 30 seconds to reboot (you can set this to never hard power off and battery life lasts for weeks).Running KINDLE FOR PC APP: NO GO. It is extremely slow and hard to navigate.Running e-ink optimized Kindle app is slow requires a new sign in every use (maybe the sign in issue can be easily fixed?).None of the integrated apps are ideal for reading large books with extensive annotations.A lot of the custom UI choices and button maps don't make sense to me. Remapping hardware buttons requires some technical skill.Other:This is a legit device, not some cheap and poorly constructed piece of Junk.Yet, there is no reason not to buy a Kindle Paper white gen 3+ over this except out of spite over Amazon's Kindle DRM policies.Originally paid $148 after shipping.Still happy with purchase but slightly regret not buying a $99 PaperWhite.I don't like to use this for mobi/epub books that require annotations because loading large books is slow and annotations are exclusive to this device.I hate the hardware buttons on the edge.

Ottimo e-book reader sotto tutti i punti di vista
Il livello tecnico (dedotto dalla specifica tecnica allegata al manuale) è ottimo, la disponibilità di memoria, a bordo e opzionale, rientra nella classe dell'apparecchio a livelli più che buoni. Lo schermo dotato d'illuminazione interna, la ridondanza di funzioni implementate, la gamma estesa dei tipi di file supportati (comprese immagini e audio) e la varietà delle applicazioni installate vanno ben oltre il medio lettore di e-book e trasformano il dispositivo in un vero e proprio centro multimediale e d'informazione. visto che è dotato di web browser e di client di posta. L'unico punto debole è la fragilità dello schermo, come risulta dalle critiche che gli vengono mosse, ma è anche vero che in merito a questo aspetto l'utente attento trova un chiaro avvertimento nelle prime pagine del manuale; d'altronde basta dotare il dispositivo di una cover di qualità, reperibile con facilità viste le sue misure standard. Per il resto basta riservare all'apparecchio l'attenzione e la precauzione che merita: lo schermo non si rompe se si evitano l'incuria e l'uso maldestro.

un ebook davvero veloce
Avevo gia' acquistato il modello precedente qualche anno fa e ne sono pienamente soddisfatto. Ora questo l'ho acquistato per mia moglie che aveva un Sony PrsT1, un bradipo al confronto. La batteria dura tantissimo, anche se ha il sistema Android non puo' essere usato come un tablet per navigare su internet, ma se non ci sono troppi video e foto si puo' usare benissimo. Come ebook secondo me e' al top di gamma. Ottimo rapporto prezzo/prestazioni.

Non molto intuitivo
Ereader basic. Non riesco ad inserire la pagina durante la lettura. Solo al momento dall'apertura del romanzo. Poche funzioni... Non tanto intuitive. Ma la lettura Funziona, buona la luce notturna e i caratteri.

Se ve bien
Se ve muy bien con la luz apagada, lo único que cuesta mucho encenderlo.

Very slow Android tablet posing as an E-reader
This was a very disappointing device, it would be OK as an e-book reader, the screen is high resolution but slow.The reason I bought this device was as an electronic notebook and to read PDF files. The device I received didn't have the notepad application installed (as listed on the Boox website) and after installing a couple of the notepad applications for Android I can understand why it was removed. The touch screen is very slow and unresponsive, it also leaves gaps in the lines, you have to write v e r y s l o w l y.As a PDF reader it is not very good because the PDF pages are scaled to the width of the screen, to get them to an adequate size for reading you need to zoom in a lot so you are constantly moving the page side to side to read a line.As an e-reader for text files and e-pub books it is OK because here you can set the size of the text.This is an Android tablet computer with an old version of Android which can't be upgraded and with a slow unresponsive monochrome touch screen which is very high resolution. It has a very good battery life unless you leave the Wi-Fi switched on in which case it has a fairly short battery life. I has some good points but overall quite underwhelming.I sent it back. Amazon are very good wiht returns.

Hätte man sich sparen können. Test war vergeudete Zeit.
Habe nicht viel erwartet, aber noch weniger bekommen.Nach dem ersten Test habe ich das Gerät enttäuscht zur Seite gelegt. Nachdem ich mich wieder gegangen hatte, etwas intensiver getestet.Display: mangelhaft. Schwammiges SchriftbildFlackern, SchattenbildungenGeschwindigkeit: verbesserungswürdig, kein SpassfaktorBedienung: Habe ein Standard-Android erwartet und ein BS gefunden, welches einem ungeübten Anwender das Leben recht schwer macht. Alle Funktionen vorhanden, aber schwer zu finden.Die Blätterfunktion über die Tasten funktioniert nur mit der eingebauten Reader-App oder wenn man in anderen Apps Blättern über Lautstärketasten einstellen kann. Bei Skoobe funktioniert es z. B. Nicht.Fairness: Die auf den Produktfotos abgebildete Schutzklappe/Hülle war NICHT dabei.Fazit: unterirdische Qualität. Eingepackt, zurückgeschickt.

So disappointed. I thought I'd finally found an eReader for Google Books!
The software is well out of date and this product shouldn't be on the market anymore. It cannot run Android apps - especially Google Books, which was my whole purpose spending the extra money on a Boox, not a Kindle. So disappointed. I thought I'd finally found a comfortable eReader for my massive Google Books collection....

Restituito
cercavo un lettore che leggesse diversi formati e questo lo permette, sarà che ho un kindle paperwhite e un kindle voyage e quindi sono abituata bene, ma l'esperienza di lettura col BOOX è scarsa, molto scarsa.Il cambio pagina non è fluido, complicate le impostazioni, la luminosità e il contrasto non mi hanno soddisfatto.Le dimensioni sono simili al paperwhite e la lettura è simile essendo E-ink, ma è un altro pianeta

Inadeguato
Pensavo fosse diverso e che le applicazioni Kindle e Play Libri funzionassero. Invece ha gravi problemi di funzionamento app. Queste vanno quasi sempre in crash. Lo schermo mi ha parzialmente deluso specie l'illuminazione che ho trovato un po' fastidiosa. Restituito
