No, not everyone said that.
With a 300 dpi mono panel you can have RGB stripes (Triton) which gives 100 dpi x 300 dpi, or a 2 x 2 cell (needs more precision) which is 150 x 150 dpi (Kaleido).

The TCL NxtPaper 11 was abandoned on the doorstep by GLS this morning. Unusually it seems to match the marketing claims.

@DrChipper is of course perfectly correct, no built in USB spots for a keyboard.

Fortunately I ordered the TCL T-Pen (€29) as the gadgets I have don't work. It might be here in a couple of days. It's a lot cheaper than a Kobo Pen, which is a lot cheaper than official Samsung, Apple or Microsoft models and cheaper than many 3rd party pens for various standards.

I've no doubt that the larger soon to come versions using NxtPaper 3.0 will be even better. This NxtPaper 2.0 is pretty good.
I can actually read old scanned magazines and poor coloured Internet Archive scanned PD books easily on it. I can't see how it has any more strain on the eyes than eink with a front-light on.

I'll add a review later in Android section here.
