5.0 out of 5 stars I love my new palma!!!!
Okay, when it first arrived, I thought about returning because of the ghosting and the text wasn’t clear, but once I turned on the high-resolution mode, everything changed! I love it, and the screen darkness doesn’t really bother me. You can just turn on the screen light so not sure why that’s an issue. Bottom line is a bit yellower than the other part of the screen but that happened with my previous palma 2 as well and it’s not horrible. It’s not a deal breaker for me anyway overall I love my new palma pro 🩷
1.0 out of 5 stars Palma Pro is horrible and expensive!!!
first palma pro arrived and the dual mic didnt work. I ordered another and the second one came in screen was superdark and more microphone issues. I sent that back and now my third one keeps freezing. When it powers down it gets stuck on power off and I have to hold button down at least a minut for it to boot back up. whatr a shame boox used to be a great product. I have a feeling they shoved this out to market too early and we have to suffer because of it. The THIRD ONE AT LEAST WORKS but THE BATTERY SUCKS. I have charged it twice and battery dies in two days when its not even in use its just sleeping. WOW BOOX DO BETTER!!! I have pretty much half the devices they ever put out and this one is making me not a fan
3.0 out of 5 stars Great for someone who likes to have a lot of control over all the settings.
This is a nice device for the right person. It is very customizable and portable. I love that it is portable and in color. Reading was comfortable because you can adjust the font size. I personally struggled with finding the right settings to make the colors pop through various different applications. Mine did have a broken pixel which was a little disappointing for the price point of the device. Overall, I did not keep the device because it was just not a good fit for what I was wanting. I did not get to try it with the pen because the pen was out of stock when I ordered this, so I can’t speak on that functionality of the device. I will be ordering the Kindle Scribe Colorsoft because I would like to use as a planner and believe that size will suite me better.
5.0 out of 5 stars If you’re a fan of the Palma, this one is Fantastic!
I love it! I had the first Palma and really liked it. The size, the OS and everything. Finally heard about this one AND it has color? Yes please! I’m a bigger fan of using the Kindle app. It allows real immersive reading (audio book & book) which is what I look for now. It also has a small speaker for your audiobooks so Bluetooth isn’t required. Yes it is pricey but for me it ticks all the boxes I have for an ereader! Edit: Please for the love of everything ADJUST the “BOOX EinkWise” options if it’s too dark or just not to your liking. There’s lots of options. It is not a one size fits all deal. Also I have noticed zero yellowing. I also have no desire to get a stylus or use a sim. This has replaced 2 kindles and and iPad mini. I love ereaders and this one really fits all my needs. If you’ve use a Palma and liked it, then you already know your way around this one.
2.0 out of 5 stars Needs major improvement
Disappointed. I tried to gaslight myself into loving this but unfortunately I will be returning. I experienced lagging, horrible ghosting regardless of settings. I feel for $400 I should have to have my refresh set to every tap and on top of that have to manually refresh the page. I know with color eink the color isn't going to be super vibrant, I have had other color ereaders so I know what to expect however I dont know if its just the one I happen to get but the colors were super super muted and if I changed the settings it would ether be that or super splotchy. Feel there are some major kinks that need to worked out especially for the price tag.Also if you hate yellowing do expect it to also happen in this device. I hardly noticed it on my other color ereader but this one just was so noticeable its all I could focus on when trying to read.
4.0 out of 5 stars A Solid Pocketable Color Companion
I've been a happy Boox user for a while (Note Air 2 since 2022), and I've been waiting for the right pocketable color e-ink device. The Palma 2 Pro fits this perfectly.I briefly tried the Tab Ultra C but returned it, primarily because it felt too fragile. I also agree with a similar point from B. Shamford's review: a full-sized color tablet felt redundant next to my Note Air 2. The Palma 2 Pro, however, is the perfect handheld color companion, not a replacement. So far, it seems like a solid device with a great hardware-software balance.A quick note on the tech: Color e-ink, in simple terms, involves sandwiching multiple layers—a B&W panel, a color panel, a light panel, and protective glass with a matte film or protective plastic. Manufacturers sell various combinations of these layers, and each has their trade-offs (mainly with clarity). Color e-ink is noticeably darker than just B&W. However, the overall technology has gotten good enough that it's very usable, even on the Palma 2 Pro, which includes all the layers.I also want to confirm and clarify a few points from Rajiv's review:Screen Quality: He's right, there is a slight yellowish tint at the very bottom. I find it's noticeable at maximum brightness (level 32). At a normal, default brightness (20), it's a non-issue, and you have to actively look for it. Even at the max brightness, it isn't terrible, and if you adjust the warm light, it blends right in.Stylus Support: Based on other reviews, the Palma 2 Pro uses the USI 2.0 protocol. This means it is not compatible with EMR styluses (like the one for my Note Air 2 and many other e-ink tablets). This isn't a defect, but a known hardware difference to be aware of.Price: It is a bit pricey at $399, but that's not terrible compared to other similar pocketable color e-ink devices with various other features. I agree the pen should have been included at this price, but I'm also not sure how much I'd use it on this form factor anyway.Ultimately, this device is exactly what I wanted: pocketable, durable, and color. As a companion device or even a primary one, it's a great choice.
