Its 32 GB of nonvolatile internal memory together with a slot for microSD cards allow you to keep in the device a considerable amount of data. The device is designed in a light casing with side buttons for turning pages, and the screen is covered with protective ONYX Glass. Thanks to its enlarged screen, high speed of working and advanced functionality, the model is perfect for those users who want to read with higher comfort and use numerous additional features of the device.
E Ink Carta Plus is the latest generation of screens made by the "electronic paper" technology. Compared to the previous models, this screen has higher resolution and contrast. 300 dpi pixel density is a record for this type of E Ink screens and corresponds to high-quality paper printing. Reading on such screens is as comfortable as on regular paper pages.
SNOW Field (Regal) is an operating mode of the screen, allowing to reduce the number of artifacts on the screen within partial refresh. If this function is on, full refresh of the screen is not necessary.
Carta 1200 is a technical definition of the generation of electronic paper screens of the E Ink company. It provides 15% more contrast and 20% faster screen refreshing speed than older Carta 1000 screens.
MOON Light 2 technology allows you to use the device in the dark or in poor lighting conditions, without any harm to your sight. When using this function, a soft glow of the screen is being created which is optimal for reading in dark rooms. This front light system has a color temperature adjustment, and thanks to the use of Flicker-Free technology, shimmering of the screen is completely absent.
The latest researches have shown that blue light prevents the production of melatonin (daily rhythms regulator), which is necessary for a person to sleep. Therefore, after reading on a glowing screen of an ordinary tablet or smartphone, it is often difficult to fall asleep. MOON Light 2 allows you to adjust the brightness of cold and warm LED lights independently, choosing at will white light for reading during the daytime, and more yellow for reading before sleeping.
Flicker-Free technology completely eliminates the flickering of LEDs used in this front light system. In ONYX BOOX E Readers, they are powered by a direct current source. Flicker-Free technology significantly reduces discomfort and eye fatigue, and reduces the likelihood of headaches caused by long use of the reader.
ONYX BOOX Page is equipped with a screen enlarged up to 7” which displays 30% more text than 6” devices. At the same time, the device is compact enough for comfortable portability.
A built-in G-sensor automatically selects the correct text orientation when the device is rotated. Thanks to this option, you can change the orientation of the E Reader and the image will be restructured automatically. The scrolling buttons on the case also change their functions according to the orientation of the screen.
The E Ink Carta Plus 7” screen has a lighter base and higher contrast than any screen in this class. It allows you to read in a bright sunlight and has a high screen refresh speed. The absence of flickering front light and the principle of image formation using “electronic ink” makes reading eye-friendly. This multi-touch screen provides easy control when reading: page turning with short taps, page moving, two-finger zoom, making notes in the text and usage of additional features.
Protective ONYX Glass is located over the E Ink screen and protects it from scratches and other damages. The new glass made it possible to abandon additional frame edges, so the screen is located flush to the body of the device. It makes the work with the E reader more comfortable and its look more up-to-date. In addition, a special coating reduces the likelihood of glare on the screen.
ONYX Glass is a fundamentally new generation of protective glasses from ONYX. Aluminosilicate glass has increased transparency and ensures the absence of distortion of the original image. The glass is applied on top of the front light layer without an air gap during the manufacturing the display module. Instead of applying a matte layer, which can reduce contrast, 5% etching is used. It provides improved glare protection and does not hamper light passing.
The 8-core Qualcomm processor with 2 GHz clock rate and 3 GB of RAM ensure a comfort work with the most complex documents. And 32 GB of nonvolatile memory together with a microSD slot allow the user to keep in the device a considerable amount of data.
Thanks to a built-in Bluetooth 5.0 module, you can connect wireless earphones, speakers, keyboards, mice etc., and receive files transferred from a smartphone.
The device supports OTG, thanks to which you can connect additional peripherals which do not require drivers.
The BOOX software allows you to open a number of different text and image file formats. While reading, you can change the style and the size of the font, the position of the pages, add bookmarks and zoom documents at your wish.
The device has a pre-installed audio player, so you can listen to music or audio books. To use it, just run a corresponding audio file. You also can connect earphones or external speakers either via Bluetooth or via the USB Type C connector.
The Page model is based on the Android 11 operating system and allows you to install and use various third-party apps, which significantly expand the possibilities of using the device.
Low power consumption by the E-Ink display and battery capacity of 2300 mAh provides long-lasting autonomous functioning.
The BOOX allows the user to read documents in different world languages. Amongst them there are such languages as Russian, English, German, French, Spanish, Arabic, Swedish, Dutch, Finnish, Polish, Chinese, Japanese and many others. There is a possibility to install and use dictionaries to translate a word without distracting from reading. In addition, there is an option to translate text fragments online.
