Hello everybody,

As many, I'm thrilled with a real A4 mass production e-book reader, to hit the market (let leave the price aside, for a moment).

As many, I consider myself to be able to purchase it (not easy, but for now – leave that aside), so there are very real questions for me to consider, especially IF eventually I'll become proud owner of Onyx Boox Max. I'm intentionally asking my questions here, in “Onyx forum” (and not in “Which one should I buy” thread), since as many – I'm considered with reader actual performance, hence asking advice, from people actually owning it and therefore, able to share experiences. I'll glad if you may answer the following questions. I'm sure, it will help many others, who're seriously considering that device. Thank you!

1. Is there any manufacturer, rumor, known press release, anything that says – there will be another, real A4 reader on the market?
2. Since it's android device – are you able to read (use) Kindle books (Kindle application) on it?
3. For how long, battery holds, assuming you turned off, everything unnecessary for reading? Does the screen turns off eventually (otherwise, the battery will run out)?
4. Are you able to read colored book on it? Now, I know it's a white and black screen – but, does the resolution and amount of shades of gray enough, or you turn on your tablet every time, you're reading a colored book? Say, a medical anatomy book?
5. Is it reasonable to expect, Boox Max model which will include back-light, or one with buttons placed more reasonable for it designed purpose, reading?


Thank you all in advance. Feel free to share anything, any experience that in your opinion, should or might affect any reasonable person decision to purchase (or not), that reader. Thank you!
