Onyx Boox Tab X Review: A4 E-Ink E-Reader With Notetaking Chops - SlashGear

Onyx Boox Tab X delivers a top-tier e-ink e-reader tablet experience that's ready to take notes, but not really made for illustrative art.

Onyx Boox Tab X review: I wish I had this in college

An E Ink tablet as big as a letter-sized page? Sign me up, says's AP's @manuelvonau

As close to a regular sheet of paper as it gets thanks to big screen ; Excellent tools to set up the E Ink screen to your liking for every app ; Android and the Play Store are on board from the get-go ; A Wacom-powered stylus with a dedicated eraser

Onyx Boox Tab X review: sometimes size does matter when it comes to ereaders

It's a niche ereader but the Onyx Boox Tab X could prove useful for some users

Sleek tablet with quality build ; Android 11 offers excellent versatility ; Great writing experience

Very expensive ; Stylus doesn’t attach magnetically ; Not upgradable to Android 12/13

Not many of us would contemplate buying an A4-sized E Ink tablet, but if you’re one of the few, then the Onyx Boox Tab X takes digital reading and note taking to the next level. Its 13.3-inch screen is perfect for editing documents (magazine editors...
