Most e-ink paper has a refresh rate of ~790ms in grayscale mode, which almost all ebook devices use. However, there is a 2nd mode, called 1bit mode, which has a refresh rate of ~260ms, I do not know how to access this mode, I just know its available. I am wondering what ebooks would look like in 1 bit mode, if they would have jaggies or not.
