To me this is such an amazing device, I'm in love with all the E-ink technology.
Hisense has come the closest to making useful color e-ink phone (great processor, smooth refresh display for e-ink) and all they had to do was include bandwidths that work with the US and other non-Chinese regions. Amazed they haven't addressed that major flaw yet, in color or even this phone, and released an international model. Parents trying to look for smartphone alternatives for their kids and themselves would make a great starting market. Also, no SD card? Strange downgrade from previous models.
Strange downgrade indeed! Ive been looking for an alternative to the best phone that is a phone on the market. Google is kind of the best phone device right now but im actually sick of the internet. Need to learn to get downtime again, need to get back to paper.
Really disappointed. Was waiting years, bc I thought it was a no brainer that they would add the US bands for any of their eink devices but I might break down and buy an light phone at this point bc they have no competition in the US for eink phones
@@AffyisAffy Yeah, if full band coverage is a must, Hisense isn't there yet. I think there's some good news in that bands like n41 are getting more usage in some US areas, and the A7 CC uses that. But that's hit or miss depending on where you live. I'm still a fan but they're missing out on this midmarket of non-addictive/non-eye-tiring e-ink smartphones.
@@yuvilio thanks I'll check out if I have that band in my area. It's just crazy to me because even b/w mode on my smartphone 'calms my brain' and less distracted. I think if the research came forward that having your phone be b/w it would help people be more productive, people would view this as a productivity phone and less of a 'detox' or minimal phone situation. Plus there's stuff I can't abandon for work, like authentication apps and my last place forced us to use a laundry app. So end the end, even if I get a light phone I'll still need 2 phones and that's why a lot of people can't commit to light phone. We are forced to have a smart phone regardless. Restaurants sometimes even only publish their menu online through QR codes the expectation is so ingrained that everyone has a smartphone
I've heard that Hisense has disbanded the department related to eink phones, so the A9 may be the swan song for Hisense's eink phones.
Love to see more mobile phone makers to adopt E-ink display for the upcoming phones, especially with the color eink display
I love how much you learn from different e-ink readers on this channel,.Iys just great🙌
I want to see more companies do this kind of devices, great review by the way.
Always glad to see more products in the E-ink category.
Phone such as these are making more and more sense. Definitely considering it as a second phone on hands. Good review guys. Keep it up.
It's so exciting to see how the technology is improving. I can't wait to see the future!
Great review. A really nice, simple, but solid looking device. And props to Hisense for the packaging. Love seeing that.
I can’t believe videos can play THAT smoothly on an e ink display!
this is so interesting! thanks for the review because i've never heard of hisense ebook reader!
Love to see it. Obviously colour would be best, but things are at least moving forward with Eink, and that's not nothing. The 8gb of RAM is especially important - up to now Eink devices have been using 1 - 4gb Max, on average 2gb.
Cheers always on all the content!
Important details to remember: No SD Card slot, Google Play services can not be installed (there are some hacks to get it 'kind of' working but not fully), the phone only works with a few carriers (not Verizon for example).
Yup, this is definitely, the points i'm waiting them to improve to change my pro CC, please hisense : Make an international version
Thanks for the warning :| I hope that someone comes out with an eink smartphone that works in the US someday. I know there's not a huge market for it, but there of course can't be a market for it if they aren't selling the things here haha.
All I want is Google play store🙏
How do you know it doesn't work Verizon
No SD card slot anymore - they silently discontinued it, certain blogs + articles say it has MicroSD storage expansion available.
But apparently its not true - this is very unfortunate i was hoping to move my entire media library (everything) onto a 500gb or more microSD card!!
Glad to see e-ink technology moving forward. Thus far I’ve been loyal to Kobo devices. Looking forward to when they start using color e-ink on their ereaders.
Absolutely beautiful phone. Clicked as soon as the video as soon as it came out 👍
I like the concept of a regular screen on one side and a e-ink display on the other. I frequently would like to read from my phone when on the train and wish I could just flip it over to an e-ink. The problem is I want the rest of the phone experience to be top notch from someone like Apple or Samsung
such an amazing device, I'm in love with all the E-ink technology.
You have a great channel keep up the great work you;re doing.
love the channel! keep it up
Such a neat concept!
I’ve been into e readers since around December and genuinely it has been a game changer for me. Having even a basic kindle has allowed me to be more mindful about my life in general. Always tempted to get a phone like this too
Nice Device. Would live to see some ereader cases back on the market. Good luck for everybody.
Thanks for your videos!
this looks soo interesting!! the screen looks amazing!!
Phone back to being a phone first and all the other things as a bonus... I like the concept!
Looks ok if you don't mind having little to no animations. And I hope the battery life is huge. A little expensive compared to common phones but the idea of eink smartphones is slowly becoming a viable option every year.
Great review on a very interesting product!
HiSense is doing some good job on sticking to e-ink screen phones
Great review. It would be great to have this one!
Great device! Thank you for the video :)
Thanks for sharing this review
It sure would be great to see more brands doing this kind of stuff
The Hisense EINK Phone is great for outdoor use and reading. It has a clear and crisp display that doesn’t strain your eyes or drain your battery. However, it has some drawbacks too. It is slow to type on, it doesn’t have a fingerprint scanner, and it doesn’t run Google apps well.
Correct, is looks and feels nice, but I too was expecting A9cc variant of it with a coloured screen, sadly they don't seem to be interested in offering it :/
Wonderful device, planning to get one
This is an interesting product. Thanks for the video.
It's always interesting to see what Hisense has to add in the e-ink market
别说彩色墨水屏了，就是黑白墨水屏的手机海信也不会再研发了。市场太小，海信已经放弃开发墨水屏手机
@@xiaomeinv7Even colored ones? Sad. 😢
A few things: Is this think water-resistant at all? I don't expect it to be waterproof but being in the great outdoors reading on an e-paper screen means that you could suddenly get hit with rain, bird poop, etc. Would any liquids damage it? The second thing is how does this perform with something like a Zoom call. I know the refresh of the others will be choppy, which can't be helped with the state of the art, but is it usable, how does the outgoing video/audio perform? How's battery life?
participating in the kindle contest, good luck!
I think that I would probably consider getting this if it were a color screen. I just can’t give up color in my daily driver phone!
I really like this phone, brands should use this type of technology more.
Love these videos
An idea would be to have a dedicated page-up/page-down button on the side, to make scrolling less painful.
Next you review an eink device do you think you could test the screen refresh rate on blur busters. I think it would be interesting just to see how far eink screens refresh rate has improved in hz
I had a yotaphone once, but this is really different. I would consider buying one for holidays. Always a screen that is readable in the sun is a dream. 😌
Thank you for your nice video😃
wow, I would definitely try out a phone like this!
is there anything limiting them from only having speed mode enabled in regions of the screen that demand high refresh rate? that way it can dybamically adapt in areas that need it, and static areas stay clear
Great video, thank you.
Yeah, but what networks allow you to use the BlackBerry Torch 9800 or Curve?
i would like to know if i plug Xreal glasses on it, will I see the screen content in colors ?
Great device! I want one for my next phone!
What is better between A9 or A7? Can't decide if the better processor of the A9 or the 5G if the A7 would serve me better. Also is the color in the A7 something that can make it harder to see in lower light vs B&W version?
are those 'screen protectors' built in? able to be removed? or will it damage the screen to remove them?
Even without a color option, its a great device. Web browsing in speed mode would be really nice. I just do not understand why have they removed sd card slot.
when i know about hisense, i really wanna have it. it's just like hold book in my hand since my phone is always with me
This thing is crazy!
Happy with my current phone, but when I’m ready to replace, will probably give this a look.
I think e-ink is one of the most underrated technologies.
great review
Really hope in the future there will be e ink displays with higher refresh rates
this looks interesting, some day i shall try one of this e-ink phones.
This looks great 👍🏽
Great review
It's so weird to see an e-ink phone. That said, it would be great to see some of these performance features integrated with current e-readers on the market.
Seems interesting, nice review btw.
Eagerly waiting to launch in my country
This looks amazing for an e ink smartphone
It would be great to have this one!
Does the Hi Sense A9 have the ES9038 + ES9603 chipsets installed on them?
Woahh, really nice device!
I would so use this on the go to read my ebooks.
I already got one. Please, how do I activate the Lock screen reading? As I used it, the battery was bad.
I really could see myself using an E-ink phone at some point soonish. I generally don’t watch videos often on my phone and I can’t think of anything much I would need the OLED for that I can’t do later on with my iPad. I don’t really take photos on my phone much, and even if I did, you can still take the photos on the E-ink phone and transfer them.
I think I would wait until a western selling manufacturer like Apple or Sony did it though. At least until I get sick of waiting and a new colour one comes out.
this is wild, the battery life must be crazy
Awesome review.. !
That is such a cool device!
Looks good 😊
That looks awesome
These phones are so so cool. I wish they would come out in the U.S.
Looks awesome
Love hisense
It looks cool
First time I am checking an EINK phone!
Such a cool and nifty little device.
Wow an e ink phone it is a game changer especially when you can use it anywhere
How well do these work in the US?
Looks Cool
If the display can be switch between ink version and color screen for the price
oooo sad that there aren't any additional colors but love the break down of the video!
Why is this phone not listed on hisense official website?
I love this Hisense brand, even though this one is not in color. E-ink phones are cool!
Any sucessor for this phone in the making?
I was hoping for a coloured version. It's 2023. It's about time!
Such a cool device
What smart E-ink phone will work in the USA. I use a lightphone 2 now but want an eink smartphone for work hours
at night does it have backlight?
Here for the contest!
I'd love a phone like that exclusively for chat, I like the idea of having one like that for chat
