BOOX Expands E Ink Lineup with Three Android 16 Tablets

The 10.3-inch Note Air6 C serves as the flagship for the series, aimed at users who require a full-scale digital notebook. It features a Kaleido 3 color display and introduces V4.3 firmware, which includes AI-driven meeting transcription and a dual-note annotation mode. Priced at $579.99, the device targets professional environments with its keyboard folio compatibility and 4096-level pressure-sensitive stylus input.

For users prioritizing mobility, the 8.52-inch Note Mini C occupies a middle ground, weighing roughly 300g. It maintains the Kaleido 3 color screen, allowing for the review and annotation of complex charts or documents on the go. Like its larger counterpart, it utilizes 6GB of RAM and Google Play access to run enterprise software, including Slack and Microsoft Teams.

Rounding out the release is the Palma 3, a palm-sized reader that moves away from plastic housings in favor of an anodized aluminum frame. It focuses on a "Quiet Tech" design, offering 128GB of internal storage and a 16MP camera for document scanning. While the Note Air6 C is currently available, the Note Mini C and Palma 3 are slated for release soon at $579.99 and $339.99, respectively.
