Aragonite BOOX Nova Air Smart Ink Tablet: Lightweight, Fashionable, Renewed Design

Our old friend Aragonite BOOX e-book has a new product. This is the BOOX Nova Air smart ink tablet released on the evening of August 25th. The aragonite BOOX product line covers sizes from 6 inches to 13.3 inches, meeting the diverse needs of different groups of people. This new product, Nova Air, belongs to the 7.8-inch Nova series. The last update was the Nova 3 in October last year.

7.8 inches The screen size is close to the 7.9 inches of the Apple iPadmini, making the overall size of the device close to this well-known popular size. Back then, Apple chose this size when designing the iPad mini to allow easy reading of "miniature" 32-open PDF books, and you can also enjoy 4:3 format video when you turn it over.

The 300PPI ultra-clear ink screen has been upgraded again with the help of the sharpness. It is also similar to the retina screen that iPad mini has long used. It can display more clear details of original format book layout, comics, web pages, etc. The original handwriting film is affixed to the machine when it leaves the factory, which improves the handwriting damping and feels better.

is a full-featured tablet, rather than a pure text-rich e-book reader. A common screen size can expand the possibilities of the device. In Kindle the classic 6-inch screen, and larger tablets A balance is achieved between the 10.3 inch screen.

In the simple packaging that BOOX old friends are already familiar with, we find that BOOX Nova Air adopts the design language that was completely renovated this year. The magnesium-aluminum alloy metal body and magnesium alloy rear shell present an elegant texture. The new spraying process of the back shell this year, like the little stars flashing in the night sky, adds a touch of freshness and agility to the light body of the Air series.

Back to the front, the ink-and-wash gray panel close to the natural color of the ink screen can reduce the interruption of readers when the black or white panel is reading.Give readers a more focused and pure reading experience. On the basis of a very narrow frame, the ink-wash gray cover can also make the screen bigger.

As the name implies, the Air varieties in each series of products must have the basic characteristics of lightness and thinness. BOOX Nova Air's 6.3mm ultra-thin body, about 235g naked weight did not let us down, 18.2% thinner than the previous generation, 11% lighter, for you who love the device to put on a protective cover to relieve the worries.

Speaking of protective covers, the optional magnetic button protective cover officially produced by BOOX Nova Air is worth mentioning. Except for the necessary openings on the side of the machine, there is only one physical power button; the screen supports gestures such as up and side swipe. But after lightly attaching the protective cover with a "click", the left edge of the screen can identify the page up and down buttons set at the connection of the protective cover, making the reading process more smooth and natural.

Some of the BOOX products we have reviewed before may be a bit tight after putting on the full cover. The magnetic key protection cover solves this problem. The attached body and the protective cover are relatively firmly connected. If you accidentally open the shell occasionally, you only hold one side of the cover with your hand, and if the other side of the body is suspended in the air, it will not be easy to throw it off.

After appreciating the appearance and screen, let's take a look at the configuration and software. BOOX Nova Air uses Qualcomm's 8-core processor, 3GB of memory, and 32GB of storage space to achieve fast page turning speed, low application power consumption, and no freeze when installing APP.

BOOX The general customized version of the Android system for the whole series, we have introduced many times before. Among them, BOOX Nova Air adds more color to the functions related to instant notes, supporting original handwriting handwriting, handwriting recognition and original handwriting search. The system's built-in note application has 5 different strokes, supports note layers and has a variety of preset templates, "Colorful Notes" can also display the set colors after exporting.

as an ink tablet with a moderate screen, stylish appearance, powerful performance, thin and portable,BOOX Nova Air also has the functions of super format compatibility and taking notes at any time provided by the same operating system. It is a one-stop ink tablet device that can meet most of the light and heavy reading needs.
