i think itd be useful for something simple and single use, like you can hang it on a wall near your door to see when the next bus or train is arriving. itd use barely any energy
for reading a book though, idk why he wouldnt just get something like the bigme highbreak. sure its more expensive but its a smartphone too
The main point of the device is to be tiny so you can just have it in your pocket. Hopefully, encouraging you to read more by lowering the barrier to start.
Though I am sure this device is not meant for everyone.
You know I saw that device before and was interested. I think one reason people might like this better is due to the hackability but it sounds like the xteink is fairly hackable too (and probably has better long term support).
Personally I am still trying to go back to physical books before I try another e-reader.
Something very cool completely ruined by the fact that its tiny and would be terrible to read on.

I’d say a vast majority of the people that have to wear glasses for reading would absolutely hate this.
I feel like something like the xteink would be better suited to this class of device though
