I agree we all want 300 DPI; pure white-levels; vibrant colours; super low refresh rates...

However, this is liquid paper; it's still nothing short of magic; for magic, I'm willing to compromise.

A big A4 color e-ink tablet is still impressive in my book; and yes my uses would be a lot for French-language graphic novels (bandes dessinées).

It does seem the black & white and color DPI levels are low. Any eink screens bigger than 10 inches all seem to decrease in resolution proportionally with size - the Boox 25" Mira screen is 145 DPI in mono.

Not sure how to take this, since I haven't seen an e-ink screen bigger than 10" with my own eyes. The thing is the capsules making e-ink are dots of varying sizes; this still makes a very authentic, natural image feel, which is a far-cry from rectangular pixels.

I was actually waiting for a Boox Tab X Pro to come out, or a Color, and now Sony's MooInk will be the first one.

There's an article with an overview of the device (in Taiwanese) at the following URL..

There is also a new 9 min promotional overview video released today (in Taiwanese) showing some of the capacities of the device at the following URL.
