Boyue T62 vs Onyx Boox Afterglow 2 (C67) ?

Has anyone actually used both these pieces of hardware and can give their opinion between them? I've read lots of reviews and heard what people who have used one or the other think, but not from anyone who has tried both.

I'm curious about app compatibility, storage space for apps, battery life, weight / ergonomics, and overall satisfaction, etc.

Any input would be appreciated, thanks!

I am also the same doubt. Among Boyue, onyx or Icarus. For the comments so far, I am more inclined to Boyue. However I am unsure as to quality.

I too would love to read a comparison by anyone who has used both! Anyone?

A comparison between the t62 & the C67 can be found on this thread.

The C67 and (original) T62 are of the same hardware generation. There is now however a T62+ (with a Carta screen instead of the older Pearl), information on which can be found on this thread.

Hello, I am late to replying but since I am OP I will tell you what I did.

I bought the c67ml (afterglow 2). I think it looks nicer. The specs are very similar, but actually maybe the t62 has slightly better specs because its battery is much larger, and the internal data partition for apps is larger.

Still, I like my c67ml and I get many compliments and questions on it when I read in public.

Good luck!

One advantage that I've recently found for the Onyx is that they are considerably (20%) lighter. The T62+ weighs in at 221g (confirmed by a couple of MR members, it is often, inaccurately listed as 173g), the AG2 at 178g (including microSD card).
