I am finding very informative the very new article at
https://www.displaydaily.com/article...-power-display

A few of the most intriguing points:
  • «using TIR ... the movement of the [electrophoretic] particle can be very small, and therefore much faster than other EPD approaches»
  • The 9.7" panel has achieved 16:1 contrast for colour and 20:1 for monochrome [E-Ink Pearl is 10:1, Carta «can reach 15:1»]
  • Colour gamut has been pushed to 19% of NTSC
  • Frame rates can currently reach 24Hz or 30Hz (I interpret)
  • Voltages: 3V to drive and 1V to hold (end of Feb 2019 breakthroughs); «Finding the NRE charges or persuading a driver company to invest to make driver chips are often very substantial hurdles. Getting the drive voltage down to those already widely used will be very helpful to Clearink which is continuing to work on optimising the driving waveforms»
  • A TIR based device is currently expected to run for around 150 hours per charge
