Mar 25, 2019 Onyx Boox Note Pro |
Thank you, Waldemar. You posted it quickly as soon as you received it. Note Pro looks solid in finish and construction. I am using it from last 4 days. The PDF reader is excellent to highlight, find meaning of any word and with lot of options. Installing Google play is bit 2 step process. You need to enable google play-store and then register your device for using google play-store to install from a large choice of android applications. Kobo & Kindle reader installed perfectly and the performance is similar to any other android tablet (except monochrome, but excellent e-ink display). The user interface of the note-pro is pretty basic, even though Boox can learn a bit to emulate Kobo Forma device with extra wonderful features to tweak font type, weight etc. Screen is excellent while taking notes, still there is room to add features such as handwriting recognition, automatically moving handwriting to top of the screen to make more room etc. Hopefully, Boox will bring more elegant great looking user interface is coming months with their software updates. I find the Note Pro hardware quality so far so good and satiffactory.

I've had this device for two weeks now and I'm really happy with it. I use it for:
1. Reading: the screen contrast is superb, the functions of the reader app very helpful, also with pdfs. 2. Music: I use Mobilsheets pro to display all my sheet music while in rehearsals and concerts. Singing in multiple choirs, this reduces the amount of sheet music I need to bring with me to zero. The device is a bit heavy at first, but you get used to it. For anyone only using it for singing, I would recommend getting the note oder note pro, as it is much lighter. I'm also getting my conductors and organists degree this summer, so I use the device to display my sheet music while conducting my choir and playing at the organ. So far I've had no problems with this either. 3. Taking notes: In university, I take notes all the time and organize them in the note app. This also brings down the count of physical paper I need to carry to and fro' the university. All in all, I'm very happy and would recommend it to anyone who looks to read much and take notes often or musicians looking to eliminate their stock of sheet music :) |

The product is pretty cool. It does have some flaws, but it seems to be the better choice compared to the other 2 competitors.

my first time experience buying from this store is very good, shipped very fast and items received as per description. competitive price as well.
ereader itself is very suitable for me, font is big enough without being too big, excellent resolution and note taking capability is exceeding my expectation. |

It seems that there is no way, Onyx put the language "Portugues Brasil", but it did not work. The Brazilian language is all messed up, mixed with English and without a dictionary, my only alternative is still the Spanish and the Amazon Kindle App ... I'm glad that it's a great android device that although I'm not satisfied with my language it's worth compensating a lot, due to the various features that iTunesOnline offers, making the language issue less important, after all you can install several applications like Kindle, Kobo, Moon-reader and many others. In fact I wanted to be able to try the Onyx Note app, but because it does not have the Portuguese dictionary Brazil does not. That's it, everyone, there's no way ... BUT HERE IS HERE A NEW REQUEST TO THE ONYX TEAM IF POSSIVELY OF A REVIZADA IN THE BRAZILIAN LANGUAGE INSTALLED IN ONYX NOTE I do not want to be annoying, but if it's not possible, there's no problem, Onyx Note remains the best reading device I have ever had, the language is just a detail that would make it excellent. Thank you.

Overall I'm quite happy with this device.
I received it in good time in a strong box. It has really made a difference for me in terms of being able to use documents without a bulky laptop or bright screen as I've severe eye sensitivity. I like its versatility and features. Some apps are not so good since it is e-ink but many apps work well. Its size is convenient for carrying and comfortable design of device and pen and a nice sleep case too. Documents are manageable but sometimes I wonder if I should have got the Max2 instead to have an even better experience with A4 documents. However there are some glitches I find. Some minor and one major. For now, I'd give 3.5 stars. - Close to the edges of the note, taking, the drawing gets thin and distorts (ie not landing exactly where you drew). This is a greater nuisance when taking side notes because the space to draw is already quite small so this further restricts it. - When starting text-to-speech, sometimes it doesn't start but automatically pauses then skips a line or 2. This is frequent. - Sometimes note-taking vanishes. Usually I notice pretty quickly and haven't lost much work and can get it working by exiting and re-loading but sometimes it takes a few tries. That could be a major problem if you're doing more important work and don't know to frequently check this. Today however, despite having saved my work many times yesterday, I found that almost all of yesterday's work on a document is gone. A page of scribbling (underlining text of the pdf) is gone and so are 3 pages of side-notes. This is very problematic. Are there any updates to fix these bugs? If so, could I get a link to it please? To fix these would make me happier with this product. |

Excelente reader - Só falta ter nele o meu idioma (Português - Brasil) mas mesmo assim ele tem tantos recursos que eu estou me virando com o idioma Espanhol. Estou esperando a atualização que a Onyx marcou para este mes de Junho... ai estará perfeito... vem mesmo este mes?

It looks and feels nice, but the quality seems to be average. The edges that hold the device in are uneven and one of the corners is not formed correctly - the height is too shallow and it took a lot of effort to get it to grip the device well.
When the flap is folded behind it can also activate the sleep sensor sometimes. |

Ordered my Onyx Boox Note after midnight on a monday.
Note shipped same day around 16:00, and arrived to my door four days later. Crazy fast service and shipping! I'm impressed! Top notch packing too! Reader itself is a blast, i love the form factor and performance. I've been out of the E-ink game since iRex iLiad, this is the first "new" E-ink reader i felt the urge to buy. And i'm happy i did, it does exactly what my old iLiad did, except in a lighter and thinner package, with order of magnitude better battery life, and a better and larger screen. |
