So not comparable. Colour eink simply can't compete with brightness & contrast of mono eink or quality of colour LCD even 20 years ago. Non-eink such as Mirasol showed some promise... |
Windows 10 and the end of Windows 7 drove
me to Linux... I love it, and I'm very happy to be liberated from Microsoft! (I just installed the most recent Calibre on Linux Mint today - it's very nice!)
Anyway... I was very disappointed when Mirasol failed to gain momentum. In recent years I have been rooting for ClearInk, which has show a lot of promise lately, and I would be happy if that or Color eInk screens were offered on phones and tablets in the US market someday.
I would be
ecstatic if a linux-based phone by Purism - like the Librem 5 - or the Linux PinePhone is someday sold with color eInk or ClearInk! (I hate using my current phone in sunlight.)
