I think Boyue fixed that in their later firmware releases, as I've never encountered it, besides broken translations in some places that I believe were fixed in Mimas/Muses firmware 1.0.1.

Have anyone of you that changed from a Kobo/Kindle to a Lifebook Android device, ever had battery issues?
I think the battery life isn't as good, but I can live with it. The battery on my Mimas tends to last around 2 days, but that's with all the extra Boyue power management features turned off, and "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" disabled. Not only that, but the only thing I dislike about the included cover is that there is no second magnet to keep the cover in place (like on the first-party Kindle covers), so the cover can move a bit and the device would sometimes unlock in my backpack and receive screen taps, but I can get over it.

Do be aware that the USB-C implementation on Likebook devices is not fully compliant, so using a fast charger may kill the device, which is why I only use a regular 2 amp USB power adapter with mine.
