E ink for studying

Lectorlector25 · 01-31-2025, 11:46 AM

Hello everybody,

Happy Friday!

Has anyone tried these two ones?

Bigme inkNote S 10.3" or Boox Note3 10.3 64GB

Do they have a split-screen function that allows reading on the left-hand side and note-taking on the right-hand side? Do they allow you to adjust the screen ratio, or is it a fixed half-and-half split between the PDF and the notepad? I am confused about this because I read somewhere that this feature is only available on devices running Android 12.

Do they allow the use of sticky notes?

Thanks!

Adjusting the ratio between the halves is only available on the newer ones with Android 12, AFAIK. But at least on the Boox you can have a PDF and a notepad open at the same time. The notepad also gets linked to the PDF, and I think the page you were reading when making the note.

I haven't tried Bigme's note takers.
