I just got the Note Air3c and I'm very happy with it. A note on the battery: yes, it's worse than a b&w screen, but it's significantly better than the Samsung S7+ I've been using previously (for the same stuff - reading pdfs and note taking). So it's still better than a normal lcd tablet.

I own note air 3c and I think I might return it for the Note 3. I'm a software engineer, and while note taking is definitely something that I want to get into (I use obsidian on my computer and my mobile devices but I haven't really done much handwritten note stuff yet.) i dont really do it that often. I've had e-readers for decades and I decided to upgrade from my old kobo Clara HD because I really wanted a larger screen and Android app support. I read a lot of comics, manga, and novels and I started to find the Clara's 6-in screen to be a little too claustrophobic. The Note air 3C definitely does fix that problem, and having the subtle color is nice especially for comics, but I just don't see myself using the extra features. I'm never going to watch KZitem videos on that thing or even listen to audiobooks; I've got a phone for that and a tablet for video which means the primary use case for me is reading media. I want something that I can use to read, write and occasionally lightly browse the internet which means the extra features and the extra $100 for the 3c just doesnt make much sense. Plus, I just don't feel like the color ink technology is all that mature yet even though it is impressive. When I decide to upgrade in 5-10 years from now, ill bet the color ink design will be on par with the black and white solutions today. Another thing to just kind of throw out there, I've got a phone, a tablet, a laptop, a steam deck, a switch, and a couple other devices plugged into my USB power strip. Having an extra cable and having to manage the battery of the note air 3C every other day as opposed to every few weeks is a big deal for sure. Anyway, great comparison.

Seeing such videos really reminds me of why I left Onyx for Supernote. The "updates" decreasing the quality of the tablet was really standard and im so glad I left that world. I think it's hard for people who have not experienced it to understand how much of a pain it is until they experience it with their own hands (and so for more than a year so that they experience multiple software updates).

@@RickGladwin Hi Rick. Yes I did. I found the higher resolution in black of the 3C was offset by the kaleido overlay which created a grainy texture as well as darkening the screen. The lack of contrast between the screen colour and the ink was also a problem (at least for my eyes). The light needed to be close to maximum to make any difference in normal daylight and this, combined with the BSR ran the battery down quickly, which also bothered me. I was very happy with the 3 in terms of contrast, brightness and resolution and would pick this again if I needed to choose between the two. Having said that, I don’t really need a colour screen. My use is mainly maths notes, reading on kindle and Reddit (!) Also, since then I bought the Go 10.3 and have been so happy with that that I sold my Note Air 3 which I wish I didn’t have to do but both was too much of a luxury.

Just the Kindle app which hasn’t created any problem on my NA2 or Nova 3. More recently, after several uninstall and reinstall, the Kindle app seems no longer to be crashing the NA3C but its very much fingers crossed!

Thank you for the video. Based on your review, I purchased the Note Air 3 - I do not need color screen and battery life is very important to me. However, as a previous Kindle Scribe user - I could not believe how noticeable the pen lag is in Air 3 comparing to Scribe. I love Boox platform with all the features it offers and the form factor is beatiful in my opinion. But I am having a really hard time getting used to the pen latency after using Scribe for several months. The writing experience is just not that good comparing to it, I am not sure I will get used to it. It is a real bummer since I really like the device otherwise... I hope this is something that can be addressed via firmware rather then hardware limitation. I tried all refresh settings and didn't find much improvement but worse ghosting. I may have to return it and wait for the next generation or the B&W version with lower latency.

Hi Voja! Thank you for your dedication in your videos! They have been very helpful to narrow down my quest for E-ink devices since I will be going to medicine soon and I'm divided... I was wondering if you could maybe do a video on what you recommend for university students? I haven't found a video showing how textbooks look like on the devices and what size is best for class notetaking and studying. I'm not really sure if I should buy Supernote A5X2 or A6X2, or even one of the Boox devices exactly because they are not distraction free + can do so much... *But, they are really expensive :( * I only have high school as reference, but my workflow consisted of using notebooks for sketching diagrams and fast note taking during class and then doing my homework and reviews at home, as well as writing notes on lots of PDFs and PPTs. Once again, thank you for your reviews!! Can't wait to see what you'll be showing us next!

Hello Voja. Question: I have an original Note Air that is still working fine. I haven't used it for the last year or so, because of eye surgery, however, my vision is much better now, and I am using it again, and still enjoying the writing experience. In you're opinion, would upgrading to a Note Air 3 make THAT much of a difference ? I do use the Note Air for Kindle, and other reading apps, but they appear to be working fine. I guess the question is do I want to spend 400 US on a new tablet that is really only faster ? I'm not sure the upgrade to an Air 3 B/W is worth the money ?
