BOOX has introduced three new gadgets—Note Air4 C, Palma 2, and Note Max—at its annual event, each packing thoughtful updates in design, hardware, and software while keeping things straightforward for users.
Note Air4 C: Colorful Creativity Meets ePaper
The Note Air4 C steps into the spotlight as the newest member of BOOX’s Note Series, sporting a tablet-like interface that makes navigating apps and customizing the home screen feel like a breeze. Priced at $499.99 in the US, £499.99 in the UK, and €549.99 in the EU, it’s ready for action on BOOX’s official sites and Amazon.
Featuring BOOX Super Refresh (BSR) Technology and a Kaleido 3 color E Ink screen, the Note Air4 C delivers a brighter display with sharper contrast, making your screen time more pleasant. An octa-core CPU and 6GB of RAM work together to boost performance by 50%, ensuring multitasking feels smooth and effortless. Whether you’re reading, browsing, or diving into detailed visuals, you can tweak the refresh settings to match your activity. Plus, the paper-like writing surface and responsive stylus make jotting down notes feel just like pen on paper—minus the ink stains.
Palma 2: Pocket-Sized Power for Everyday Use
Upgrading its 2023 predecessor, the Palma 2 maintains its compact, phone-sized charm while packing some impressive upgrades. Available for $279.99 in the US, £279.99 in the UK, and €299.99 in the EU through BOOX’s official channels, Palma 2 is perfect for one-handed use, helping you keep a healthy tech-life balance without juggling devices.
The Palma 2 features a 6.13-inch E Ink Carta 1200 screen with 300 PPI, offering crisp, paper-like clarity that makes reading a joy. Under the hood, an octa-core CPU and 6GB of RAM, along with 128GB of storage, ensure you have plenty of space for apps and books. Running on Android 13, it grants access to the Google Play Store for all your favorite apps. Extras like a fingerprint sensor add a layer of privacy, while dual-tone front lights keep your screen visible in any lighting. A 16MP camera for scanning documents and dual speakers for decent audio round out its feature set, making it a handy companion for both work and travel.
Note Max: Big Screen, Bigger Ideas
Expanding the Note lineup, the Note Max boasts a spacious 13.3-inch display, ideal for those who need plenty of screen real estate for tasks like document reviews, handling complex PDFs, or annotating research. Coming to the BOOX Shop in the next few weeks, the Note Max sports a sleek, light grey shell that’s just 4.6mm thick—proof that big can still be stylish.
Its Carta 1300 E Ink display offers excellent readability without front lighting, helping you stay focused without the glare. Powered by a 2.8GHz octa-core CPU, 6GB of RAM, and 128GB of storage, the Note Max handles demanding applications with ease. Features like split-screen mode, advanced PDF tools, and broad app compatibility make multitasking a smoother experience, perfect for those who like to keep several projects open at once.
Smart Firmware for a Smoother Ride
All three devices run on Android 13 and feature BOOX Super Refresh (BSR) Technology alongside robust octa-core CPUs, ensuring everything runs without a hitch. BOOX’s latest firmware updates bring AI-integrated tools like Smart Scribe and text recognition, making note-taking and idea organization a cinch. New features include outline creation in the Notes app, better PDF interactions, flexible shape editing, and the upgraded NeoReader engine V3, which enhances multilingual typography and background OCR for seamless text recognition.
