The 6.13-inch Kaleido 3 color E Ink screen delivers gentle hues that remain readable in direct sunlight without the harsh glare of traditional screens. The display never strains your eyes, even during marathon reading sessions. Adjustable dual-tone front lights with a built-in sensor adapt to your surroundings, making it equally comfortable for late-night reading or outdoor use. The hybrid SIM slot stands out as a genuinely useful upgrade.
Boox - the brand behind the smartphone-sized Android e-readers is gearing up to launch a new entry with the P6 Pro. It's still as compact as a phone like previous entries, but it will be available with an optional color e-ink display and a SIM slot for 4G and 5G data connectivity. Boox P6 Pro One of the big missing features on the Boox Palma 2 was the lack of cellular connectivity so the P6 Pro is bringing a welcome addition.
It wasn't on public display at its IFA 2025 booth, but Boox gave The Verge's Jess Weatherbed a brief but early look at its next Palma smartphone-sized e-reader. The company wasn't yet willing to divulge any technical specs. Still, the new Palma appears to feature a color E Ink screen, and the device's status bar also shows a 4G+ LTE cellular connection, seemingly indicating the next Palma could also be a fully-functional smartphone.
I love a list. I can happily write the same to-do list in six different places in a single day (good thing I test digital notebooks and paper planners). I often find myself rewriting the little brainstorms in my Notes app because the ideas are still banging around in my brain, asking to be let free onto a page, digital or not.
