ONYX BOOX MAX2 (32GB, BLACK)
Coming to the Boox Max2 from a secondhand Boox M96, I already knew the benefit of having an e-reader running Android. But the Max2 is so much bigger, faster and easier to read than the M96. Excellent for reading my electronic newspaper (The Guardian) and Twitter, before getting down to reading my books. Have loaded both the Amazon Kindle and Kobo software, so not tied to either source for books. Also very impressed with Google Translate on the Max2, as handwriting recognition is possible using the Max2's Stylus. Had to load the latest firmware from Onyx-International to get Google Play Services installed properly.

ONYX BOOX Kepler Pro
Seit Jahren suche ich nach einem eInk Tablet - hier ist es.
Der Screen ist zwar nicht Multimedia geeignet, aber durch den A2 Refresh ist ein fließender Bildaufbau möglich - somit Scrollen bei Internetseiten.
Bis jetzt habe ich noch kein Bluetooth Gerät gefunden, das ich nicht konnekten konnte.
Touchpad Tastatur, GPS Maus, BT Lautsprecher, Autoradio.
Ich musste nach 28 Stunden Navigation abbrechen, weil ich keinen "Saft" mehr für das verbundene GPS Gerät hatte - der Kepler Pro hätte noch einige Stunden weitermachen können - A2 Refresh hat problemlos die Kartennachführung ermöglicht.
A2 Refresh ermöglicht fließende Eingaben/Löschungen in Office Applikationen - dieses Gerät ist mE der Ideale Garten Computer (>6" ist schlechter transportabel)

Und jetzt erst komme ich zum Lesegerät - OReader bietet mehr Komfort, als alles, was ich vorher gekannt habe.
Der Bildschirm ist gleichmäßig ausgeleuchtet und die Lichtfarbe ist nahezu weiß.
Der Kontrast ist hoch und Led-Lichthöfe sind kaum erkennbar, sodaß ich nicht in der Lage war, die Anzahl der LEDs festzustellen.
Summa Summarum: ein Top Gerät

Onyx Boox Note
I have it for one week now. Really good for PDF documents.I like the option to take notes over pdf documents. I would love to have the option to use a pendrive to transfer documents.

Onyx Boox Note
It's fast and the display is excellent, better than everything I've seen sofar on an ereader. There are plenty of options. And ... surprised, I received the book cover that goes with it a few days after, not knowing it even existed. It fits perfectly with the reader, making it quick to turn off and of when one opens or closes the cover.
Really great ereader.

Onyx Boox Note
I pre-ordered Boox Note a month ago and had it for a week now. The main purpose is to read a lot of pdfs (I am a researcher) and take notes, especially handwriting ones. Here is a summary of my experience so far:

Positive:
- Very fast for an e reader. Marginal/no lag from the pen
- Native note taking software is awesome. Great job!
- The screen is big enough for comfortably reading pdfs
- Very light, easy to carry around
- Looks and feels very nice/premium/stylish, both the ereader itself and the cover included
- Didn't crash once during a week of usage. The core software seems to be stable
- Battery is still over 50% after a week of casual usage out of the box (didn't charge it yet)

Negative
- No back/frontlight, so the background looks a bit grey. Very hard/sometimes not possible to read in the darker environments. Totally OK to read in natural light or with a headlamp etc.
- A bit pricey (but still a better value for the money compared to other models).

I didn't try other features like installing apps, synchronization with other devices etc, so this is still something to explore. Overall very good impressions and great help for researches and similar, hope to have a version of this with a front light in coming years.

Onyx Boox Note
I've got my boox note on 3/22, and have been using it for about a week. It can read big pdf files with ease, and can crop pages fairly well. Supporting djvu and epub is also good. The wacom pen and speaker is also better than I thought, although I wouldn't use this as a drawing board or music player. It sometimes lags when I write too much with the pen and I hope it will be fixed in later updates. The big size makes reading much easier than the 6.7 inch one I used before, and I'm going to carry it everywhere when I get the protective cover. Best ereader when it comes to reading or studying.

Max Screen Protector 13.3
Yes, it's really high quality foil, matte and very similar to screen itself. Worth to buy. Thanks to the Seller for his comment that let me make this task properly. Simply saying, it's proffesional seller with proffesional product. It was very stressed moment but finally I put the foil on my screen without any single bubble :-) Thanks.

ONYX BOOX MAX2 (32GB, BLACK)
Ein super eink Tablet, ersetzt momentan meinen Computer nahezu komplett. Im Studium eine sehr große Erleichterung um eingescannte Bücher zu lesen und Mitschriften mit Bluetooth keyboard zu machen.

Was mich jedoch immer wieder ärgert ist, dass der Stylus keinen Clip zum befestigen hat, das Gerät hat eine Schlaufe für den Stylus, aber er hält darin nicht. Bei einem 800€ Gerät ist das schon ein sehr grober Design Fehler, da hätte durchaus mal jemand nachdenken können.

Auch ist es schade, dass der Stylus in vielen Drittanbieter apps etwas langsam ist und die Onyx eigene app keine halbtransparente Marker oder einen weißen Stift für dunkle Seiten anbietet (kommt hoffentlich noch)

Trotzdem ist das Gerät auf jeden Fall Konkurrenzlos und für mich die beste Investition in Technik die ich je getätigt habe. Die Dinge die mich noch stören machen es in keinem Fall zu einem deal-breaker

Vielen Dank für Ihr positives Review!
Bezüglich Stift von Max. Aktuell liefern wir die neue Stiftversion mit dem Clip. Auch arbeiten wir daran, die Nutzung des Stiftes in Drittanbieter Apps zu optimieren. Es soll bald ähnliche Performance bieten, wie in unseren nativen Apps.

ONYX BOOX Kepler Pro
The Kepler Pro is marketed as Onyx's best 6 inch eReader, and so far, it has lived up to its hype in my experience. The metal alloy backing and side buttons, and the flush display, help to give it a feel of higher quality when compared to the C67ML Carta. The K-Pro offers 16 GB of internal storage, of which about 12 GB is available to the user. This easily surpasses the 8 GB of the C67 series and the Boyue T62/T63 series. The K-Pro's user app partition is about 1 GB - more than the C67 series and equal to Boyue's offerings.

Though the K-Pro and the C67ML have the same CPU, the K-Pro has double the RAM (1 GB compared to 512 MB). If you use only the stock reader apps, you won't noice much of a difference in performance. But, if you install additional Android apps, the extra RAM translates into better overall performance.

The left and right buttons are conveniently placed, and are customizable to a point. Page turns are generally quick and smooth, whether you use NeoReader or a third party app like AlReader. NeoReader 2.0 is actually quite good as a reader app, if you use ePub or PDF. The PDF reflow function works well. The ePub experience is customizable in a number of ways. I find AlReader to be an even better choice, but I could easily live with NeoReader.

The Carta display offers 300dpi. Text is clear, and contrast is very good. When I first started it up, there seemed to be a problem with ghosting, but that has since vanished (like a ghost?). The front light is quite even. I have to look very carefully to see any blotchiness whatsoever. The brightness range is good. It is easy to find a comfortable brightness.

Battery life seems to be on a par with the C67 series, if not slightly better. Start-up time is not quick, but no worse than other eReaders.

The K-Pro has a microSD card slot. I have not yet put a card into it. It also has Bluetooth, but I have not tried that yet.

The K-Pro was also easy to root, for those who care about that.

Kudos also go to the eReader Store. I live in the USA, and this store is in Germany. Nevertheless, my device arrived 48 hours after I placed my order. Impressive!

I have found, so far, only one drawback to the Kepler Pro - the fact that Onyx saw fit to give it Android 4.0.4, which is even older than the C67's 4.2.2. This device should be able to handle a newer version of Android. The eReader Store says that a 4.4 version of the firmware is in the works. That would be a nice improvement.

Overall, I can definitely recommend the Kepler Pro, even with 4.0.4. Give it 4.4, and it gets even better!
