This even smaller credit card-sized e-reader has one tragic flaw
"The X3 is a millimeter thinner, a few millimeters narrower, and over half an inch shorter than the X4. It's much closer in size to a credit card, but while the X3 is just a bit too big to squeeze inside my slim wallet, I can slip the two into my pocket without noticing any added bulk."
"I was thrilled to find the X3 fits perfectly on the back of my iPhone 16 Pro, and then once again disappointed to discover its magnets aren't strong enough to keep it securely in place."
"Attaching the X3 to my 16 Pro feels more like the devices are exchanging a weak hug. They don't remain aligned when holding the two together, and on several occasions the X3 fell off my phone while being used."
The Xteink X3 is a smaller and thinner e-reader compared to the X4, featuring refined software, simplified buttons, and an improved magnetic mount. While it excels in portability, it lacks a USB-C port, using a magnetic pogo-pin connection instead. The X3 fits well on the back of smartphones, but its magnets are not strong enough to hold securely. Despite its size being close to a credit card, the X3's design compromises usability due to the weak magnetic attachment.
