Boox Note Max: The new giant reader in A4 format arrives in France
It is on the way to becoming an immutable law of consumer electronics: whatever the family of products, screens will always tend to be always larger. From smartphones to televisions to computers or connected watches, the diagonals of their displayers have grown inexorably over the years. The readers are no exception to the rule. 6 and 7 inch screen sizes are certainly in the majority on the most popular models such as Kindle Paperwhite 2024,, Kindle 2024,, Kobo Clara Color Or Libra Color. But the more generous diagonals also progress at a good pace in this family of products. In recent weeks, we have notably offered you tests of Kindle Scribe 2024 And Boox Note Air4 Cboth holders of a screen of just over 10 inches.
An A4 screen
Does this already seem a lot for a reader? So you are not ready for the new Boox model, the max note. The latter indeed sports an E Ink screen of 13.3 inch, equivalent to an A4 format. This format should prove to be particularly suitable for consulting PDF documents, notes or drawing. Despite its size, it keeps a resolution of 300 pixels per inch. Its E Ink Carta 1300 screen, successor to Carta 1200, promises to improve display quality with more pronounced contrasts between blacks and whites. Still according to the manufacturer, the voluntary absence of frontal backlight preserves the natural reading experience, comparable to paper. To tell you even more clearly: this reader has no backlight. You will therefore not be able to use it in the dark for example.
Android 13 on board
For the rest, the tablet has an Octa-Coeur processor clocked at 2.8 GHz, supported by 6 GB of RAM and a storage space of 128 GB. The manufacturer adds its Boox Super Refresh (BSR) technology, in order to 'Ensure a more fluid navigation and an effective multitasking, he promises. A 3700 mAh battery completes the table. We also note the presence of a shared screen function, which allows you to work simultaneously on two applications. An unprecedented feature on a reader, but all in all classic for an Android tablet. And it is on this point that the Boox readers stand out from many competitors, since they operate on Android, here present in its version 13. The Max note offers full access to the Google Play Store, allowing you to install all Possible and imaginable apps from the shop. Obviously, this kind of device is more suitable for productivity, reading or creation applications. The tablet natively supports many file formats, facilitating the reading and annotation of professional documents.
Optimized user experience
Boox also offers an optional detachable keyboard. This addition transforms the max note into a mobile workstation, allowing faster and comfortable entry for writing documents or management of emails.
The Boox Note Max is marketed at a price of 699.99 euros.
