I decided to buy an Ares for following reasons:
After having read tons of article and seen several video reviews, my personal short list was:
To make it short: Supernote: closest thing to writing on paper but with a relatively immature software and no third party apps Nova Pro: same hardware of Ares but with a smaller battery, no SD card, no paper feeling iPad Mini: superb software, fast but pricey and no paper feeling So, even if its glass screen doesn't give paper feeling, I decided to go with Ares Note because it offer Google Play Store, SD card at honest price |

This is all very fine. But what use is it if one's device has no update available?
Can you post the update so all of us who have yet to get it can do a manual update? Thanks! Alan Quote:

The new update with text to speech on reader
Hi,
Noticed that the new update has new Zreader and the existing default reader which has an Icon as a headset in the bottom bar near Text size adjustment. On click of the icon, it gives some message in chinese. Could you anyone please help me to un understand it and enable the text to speech feature in English. Attached the images for references.. |

You just connect wifi and try to click this icon. It will fix this problem

Hi, I am new here.
I just got a Likebook Ares Note 7,8 inches. Amazing. I just updated it to the latest firmware 3.04 (2021) (android 8.1). The only problem I have is: when I turn it off, if under charge it restarts. It does not turn off. So if I unplug the cable and turn it off, it does with no problem. Did I have this problem before that update? No idea. I didn t try unfortunately. Anyone else having the same issue? thanks oh I also don t know how to create a new post that s why I m writing this reply to the official reader thread |
