Onyx Boox Note
It's fast and the display is excellent, better than everything I've seen sofar on an ereader. There are plenty of options. And ... surprised, I received the book cover that goes with it a few days after, not knowing it even existed. It fits perfectly with the reader, making it quick to turn off and of when one opens or closes the cover.
Really great ereader.

Onyx Boox Note
I pre-ordered Boox Note a month ago and had it for a week now. The main purpose is to read a lot of pdfs (I am a researcher) and take notes, especially handwriting ones. Here is a summary of my experience so far:

Positive:
- Very fast for an e reader. Marginal/no lag from the pen
- Native note taking software is awesome. Great job!
- The screen is big enough for comfortably reading pdfs
- Very light, easy to carry around
- Looks and feels very nice/premium/stylish, both the ereader itself and the cover included
- Didn't crash once during a week of usage. The core software seems to be stable
- Battery is still over 50% after a week of casual usage out of the box (didn't charge it yet)

Negative
- No back/frontlight, so the background looks a bit grey. Very hard/sometimes not possible to read in the darker environments. Totally OK to read in natural light or with a headlamp etc.
- A bit pricey (but still a better value for the money compared to other models).

I didn't try other features like installing apps, synchronization with other devices etc, so this is still something to explore. Overall very good impressions and great help for researches and similar, hope to have a version of this with a front light in coming years.

Onyx Boox Note
I've got my boox note on 3/22, and have been using it for about a week. It can read big pdf files with ease, and can crop pages fairly well. Supporting djvu and epub is also good. The wacom pen and speaker is also better than I thought, although I wouldn't use this as a drawing board or music player. It sometimes lags when I write too much with the pen and I hope it will be fixed in later updates. The big size makes reading much easier than the 6.7 inch one I used before, and I'm going to carry it everywhere when I get the protective cover. Best ereader when it comes to reading or studying.

Max Screen Protector 13.3
Yes, it's really high quality foil, matte and very similar to screen itself. Worth to buy. Thanks to the Seller for his comment that let me make this task properly. Simply saying, it's proffesional seller with proffesional product. It was very stressed moment but finally I put the foil on my screen without any single bubble :-) Thanks.

ONYX BOOX MAX2 (32GB, BLACK)
Ein super eink Tablet, ersetzt momentan meinen Computer nahezu komplett. Im Studium eine sehr große Erleichterung um eingescannte Bücher zu lesen und Mitschriften mit Bluetooth keyboard zu machen.

Was mich jedoch immer wieder ärgert ist, dass der Stylus keinen Clip zum befestigen hat, das Gerät hat eine Schlaufe für den Stylus, aber er hält darin nicht. Bei einem 800€ Gerät ist das schon ein sehr grober Design Fehler, da hätte durchaus mal jemand nachdenken können.

Auch ist es schade, dass der Stylus in vielen Drittanbieter apps etwas langsam ist und die Onyx eigene app keine halbtransparente Marker oder einen weißen Stift für dunkle Seiten anbietet (kommt hoffentlich noch)

Trotzdem ist das Gerät auf jeden Fall Konkurrenzlos und für mich die beste Investition in Technik die ich je getätigt habe. Die Dinge die mich noch stören machen es in keinem Fall zu einem deal-breaker

Vielen Dank für Ihr positives Review!
Bezüglich Stift von Max. Aktuell liefern wir die neue Stiftversion mit dem Clip. Auch arbeiten wir daran, die Nutzung des Stiftes in Drittanbieter Apps zu optimieren. Es soll bald ähnliche Performance bieten, wie in unseren nativen Apps.

ONYX BOOX Kepler Pro
The Kepler Pro is marketed as Onyx's best 6 inch eReader, and so far, it has lived up to its hype in my experience. The metal alloy backing and side buttons, and the flush display, help to give it a feel of higher quality when compared to the C67ML Carta. The K-Pro offers 16 GB of internal storage, of which about 12 GB is available to the user. This easily surpasses the 8 GB of the C67 series and the Boyue T62/T63 series. The K-Pro's user app partition is about 1 GB - more than the C67 series and equal to Boyue's offerings.

Though the K-Pro and the C67ML have the same CPU, the K-Pro has double the RAM (1 GB compared to 512 MB). If you use only the stock reader apps, you won't noice much of a difference in performance. But, if you install additional Android apps, the extra RAM translates into better overall performance.

The left and right buttons are conveniently placed, and are customizable to a point. Page turns are generally quick and smooth, whether you use NeoReader or a third party app like AlReader. NeoReader 2.0 is actually quite good as a reader app, if you use ePub or PDF. The PDF reflow function works well. The ePub experience is customizable in a number of ways. I find AlReader to be an even better choice, but I could easily live with NeoReader.

The Carta display offers 300dpi. Text is clear, and contrast is very good. When I first started it up, there seemed to be a problem with ghosting, but that has since vanished (like a ghost?). The front light is quite even. I have to look very carefully to see any blotchiness whatsoever. The brightness range is good. It is easy to find a comfortable brightness.

Battery life seems to be on a par with the C67 series, if not slightly better. Start-up time is not quick, but no worse than other eReaders.

The K-Pro has a microSD card slot. I have not yet put a card into it. It also has Bluetooth, but I have not tried that yet.

The K-Pro was also easy to root, for those who care about that.

Kudos also go to the eReader Store. I live in the USA, and this store is in Germany. Nevertheless, my device arrived 48 hours after I placed my order. Impressive!

I have found, so far, only one drawback to the Kepler Pro - the fact that Onyx saw fit to give it Android 4.0.4, which is even older than the C67's 4.2.2. This device should be able to handle a newer version of Android. The eReader Store says that a 4.4 version of the firmware is in the works. That would be a nice improvement.

Overall, I can definitely recommend the Kepler Pro, even with 4.0.4. Give it 4.4, and it gets even better!

ONYX BOOX Kepler Pro
Endlich wieder ein Ebook-Reader der wirklich alles liest und skaliert. Ich habe schon Kobo, PocketBook und Kindle ausprobiert: Alle haben ein Problem mit selbstformatierten Epub (mit Calibre) oder Bücher die woanderst gekauft wurden als ihre eigenen Händler. Abgesehen davon das die Lesesoftware oft nicht mal imstande ist Bücher nach Geschmack zu verwalten haben sie Probleme beim Laden von "Artfremden" Büchern. Dies ist mein 4. Onyx-Reader und ich muss dazu nur noch sagen das diesmal sogar die Hardware einfach gelungen ist. Es ist ein schönes Gerät das in die Bestenliste gehört.

ONYX BOOX MAX CARTA
If you read technical books, it's really amazing.
It's not so heavy, it lighter than a book.
