BOOX Go 7 Color (Gen II)β β β β β After five years, I replaced the Poke3 with the Go 7 Color. Itβs a lot faster and more responsive, brings back physical page turning buttons, and adds (pastel) color. Like its predecessor it has a sharp e-ink screen and runs any Android-based ebook reader app.
Farewell to Fryβs ElectronicsI miss two things about Fryβs Electronics: 1. Being able to walk in and grab random parts immediately. 2. The decor.
Kobo (eBook store and readers)β β β β βA solid alternative to Kindle, from the eBook selection through apps and hardware. The app works well on my eink tablet without too much tweaking, though it still wants to sell me more books before I can open the one I want to read.
Microsoft Surface Go 2β β β β βA great ultra-light Windows 10 tablet with detachable keyboard. Or an annoyingly slow Windows 11 tablet.
Onyx BOOX Poke3β β β β βI used the Poke3 as my main ebook reader for almost five years. Itβs a convenient size, has a clear e-ink display, and can run the Android app for (almost) any eBook store.
Pebble 2 Smart Watchβ β β ββThe rare smartwatch that was actually designed to work well as a watch. It was discontinued ages ago, but the just-announced Core Duo 2 is essentially an updated version.
Samsung Galaxy S4 (Phone)β β β β β Much as I like newer phones, there are a few things that I really miss about the S4, especially the ergonomics.
