Yes, for the right person
First, I would buy this again. Now let’s get to the experience. My package was a week delayed getting to the post. My first report of the delay I was told patience, thankfully the second time someone from customer service checked on it and 2 hours later it was being shipped. So 1.5 week delay in shipping. A week later it arrived (yes, 2.5 weeks from ordering). It isn’t easy to set up and if you’re used to ecosystems where your face or print gets you into everything, you’re going to spend some time setting it up. The color screen is dark and because the device is small this matters, I didn’t understand that impact since my e-ink screens are 7 and 13 inches. But, you can optimize the refresh, color and lights to make it pleasant to read in - again, it takes some set up time to make reading enjoyable. Now, for the use and why I will absolutely continue to keep a Boox. I have the Palma 2 Pro and she is my travel companion! I am an avid reader and this lets me have: Libby, Kindle, Kobo, Hoopla and Audible in my pocket! It lasts for an entire day of travel (keeping in mind I am not using the browser) without needing a charger. It doesn’t annoy my seat companion with content or lights. This is strictly an e-book for me so I can’t speak to browser performance or app use outside of setting the device up for reading and that was sufficient. I can grab books off of Project Gutenberg’ website and have a quick link on my Home Screen that works well. It’s perfect if you’re going to put your 7 e-readers in your checked luggage and want access to all of your stories!
