I just got myself a Palma since the prices went down and I am SUPER happy with it. I like it for Libby books that kindle can’t open. Reading in bed is fantastic with this, and it fits in my purse. I read while walking my dog too, so the smaller the reader the better so that I can still have some peripheral vision and not fall down in the woods. 😂 Fantastic device. Since I have an Apple Watch I feel like i can almost leave my phone at home and just bring this out and about.
My Palma 2 came in last week and I am extremely pleased with it. It is my second Boox device as my first was the Boox Nova 3 Color and while I am still fairly happy with it, I needed something smaller for daily carry. Super nice "pocket" reader. I did get the Miter 2n1 case and cut the power button bit out so I could still use the the fingerprint reader and its been a delight.
I love the idea of an E-ink phone. Not many people realise that black and white screens combat phone addiction. The downside I see today is the fact these phones look rubbish. Show me an E-ink phone without massive bezels and I'll pull the trigger.
I bought the Bigme BW because of your videos. i may get the Palma 2 next 😊 Im enjoying the focus that the Bigme phone is bringing to my life. Hopefully they provide more updates for a better user experience. Thanks 🙏🏽
Love e ink. Used to use the Light Phone 2 until I couldn’t get group messages to work well. Backed the Mudita Kompakt and it has everything I need and am very excited for it.
Thanks for this, really great brief review / overview, I'm so sick of RUclips reviews being 20+ minutes long, clickbait, heavily sponsored with 8 minutes of waffle.
Hello Kit Betts-Masters ! I want to change my iPhone 12 mini for an e-ink mobile phone, what I'm mostly looking for is the e-ink display with most important feature that normal phones have like calling, texting sms/whatsapp, pictures(idc about quality too much), wallet (paying at stores with my phone since I'm not using cash too much). In my research by now what I didn't find is a phone with 5G and wallet. Are you aware of such a phone that has those features ? Palma2 seems to be the most allrounder of them all but it doesnt have the option to pay at stores. Other than that I would also ask you if you know if there is phone with a screen texture like remarkable/kindle tablets have? Thank you, you are doing really usefull reviews !!!
Oh I hope so. It was something they mentioned when they first sent the original Palma. Hopefully they are just taking their time to make sure they get it right. I honestly don't think they expected the reception of the Palma to be so positive. I think they may always now have two separate lines, not a phone, and ... A phone. If that makes any kind of sense.

Opening Libby books directly in the app on an e-ink display was my selling point for my Boox devices.

How does it perform? I had a Palma but just sold it as I think I want a phone rather than carrying two devices.

Kit, do you think Boox is perfecting the form factor before releasing a phone? Or is an e-reader the end goal?
Oh I hope so. It was something they mentioned when they first sent the original Palma. Hopefully they are just taking their time to make sure they get it right.

What do you think of the Hisense A9?
@@saadizierl7276 hardware is probably very good, but no Google play and difficult to tell if it will work on your network in your region. 🙂
I think its much better than the bigmes!!
And they are still available and good lienage os community
@@samonrol9011 I would love to get an A9, but as of now, none of the e ink phones support esim, which is a bummer.
Hisesne A9 is at the moment the best eink phone out there. It also comes with preinstalled google play
@@andreass4165It's 4g though
Anyone that actually has a SIM card tray for phone calls?
Yeah, the Bigme one does. 🙂
@@KitBetts-Masters is this the way forward ?
