Boox has unveiled 3 new e-ink devices at the end of September in China. Actually 2 note-taking tablets have been released while they just released a teaser for a pocket e-reader. First is the X5 Note Mini which is a 7.8″ note-taking ereader with 300 PPI (using the latest E-ink Carta 1300 screen). It is essentially a smaller version of the Go 10.3 since this too won’t have frontlight.
It’ll use a Qualcomm octa-core CPU with 4gb of RAM and 64gb of internal storage. Full specs of these devices are not yet known so I don’t know if there is option to externally expand the storage via SD card. It does have stereo speakers though and will probably be called Nova Air 3, Nova 4 or maybe Go 7.8 internationally. It was launched on 25 September at an early bird price of 2039 yuan which is around 286$.
Next is the Tab 10C Pro which is a new version of the Tab Ultra Pro C. It uses the latest Kaleido 3 which means 300 PPI for black and white and 150 PPI for color on a 10.3″ screen. It uses a Qualcomm octa-core 2.8GHz processor and an in-house developed BSR chip for a fast and smooth performance. It will come with a magnetic keyboard with trackpad so it can be conveniently used like a mini laptop. This e-ink tab was released on 27 September retailing at 4299 yuan which is around $600.
Lastly is the P6 Pro. Not much info has been released except for a short teaser clip which you can see in the video below. It is most probably the new Palma that was teased a few weeks ago at a convention shown to have cellular network. It will be officially launched on the 7th of October 2025. All three of these devices are available only in China for now but they be released internationally soon enough.
