The great advantage of e-readers or electronic book readers compared to tablet screens is its famous electronic ink technology, whose main virtue was to protect our eyes from visual fatigue. But this could have changed following the launch of the BOOX Tab Ultra C. Now, this tablet becomes the competition for Ebooks.
Not only that: this magnificent and peculiar tablet is sold with a series of accessories through which it is possible to transform it into something very similar to a laptop. We tell you everything in detail in the following paragraphs.
display features
The most striking element of this tablet is its prodigious screen. Its about Kaleido 10,3 3 inch e-ink touch panel, which gives us up to 4.096 colors and high resolution in both black and white (2.480 x 1.860 pixels) and color (1.240 x 930 pixels). It does not reach the level of image quality of AMOLED screens, but it is not far from them either.
Particularly interesting is its front lighting system, as well as the Carta 1200 glass screen with flat protective lens. The sensitivity of the touch layer (which is 50% thinner than the previous model) is guaranteed by the work BOOX stylus touch, that works with 4.096 different levels of pressure.
Also worth noting is the presence of a 16 MP front camera, more designed for scanning documents than for taking photographs.
Better reading experience
La electronic ink (e-ink) It is what all e-book readers use to offer a comfortable and safe reading experience to their users. Its advantages are well known to users of this type of device: the brightness of the screen does not hurt the eyes, not even after prolonged viewing. Furthermore, its range of vision is greater, while Battery consumption is very low.
The quality of the reading experience is even better thanks to some additional technical aspects. First of all, we must highlight the presence of a powerful GPU that allows the device to work fluidly and respond quickly. On the other hand, we must talk about the BOOX Super Refresh technology, which reduces latency considerably. This offers us four modes of use different:
- HD mode, which eliminates annoying afterimages.
- Balanced mode, to use for both reading and writing.
- Quick mode, which speeds up page turning.
- Ultra fast mode, ideal for working with applications and viewing dynamic content.
Everything, in short, makes this tablet a product ideal for reading lovers.
Read, write, draw…
It is also worth highlighting the possibility of using the BOOX Tab Ultra C as interactive notepad with the use of the digital pen (the Pen2 Pro, a digital pen that has a high-precision tip and is included in the box). Not only because the tablet supports 24 different digital formats, but also because it has an extensive panoply of built-in tools: hyperlinks, automatic screen rotation, text boxes, custom light settings, synchronization instruments …
All these practical functions allow us work more fluidly and efficiently. Without having to worry about battery life (6300 mAh, capable of lasting many days on a single charge) and with 128 GB of storage, expandable via microSD card.
We cannot forget the aesthetic factor either: the design of the tablet is beautiful, balanced and, above all, functional. A tri-fold magnetic protective case is included in the purchase box to play with to achieve the most comfortable viewing angle for reading and taking notes. It is made with very light synthetic materials that are pleasant to the touch.
