Boox, the company behind the pocket-friendly Palma e-reader, has revealed its cheapest device yet. At just $149.99, the Boox 6 Go features a six-inch 300ppi E ink display and a wider-than-the-Palma form factor for reading while on the go.
The device uses an upgraded Carta 1300 E ink display that’s supposed to offer deeper blacks and brighter whites. Like many of Boox’s other e-readers, the Boox 6 Go is pretty light, weighing in at just 146 grams (or 5 ounces) and measuring a quarter of an inch thick.
Along with Android 12 and the Google Play Store on board, it runs the latest version of Boox’s firmware, which introduces a minimalistic interface, a dark mode option, and a new handwriting tool. The Boox 6 Go ships with a 2.0Ghz octa-core processor and 32GB of storage. But it only has 2GB of RAM, which could slow down performance — especially if you want to download and use Android apps.
Either way, the Boox Go 6 could be a good fit if you’re looking for an e-reader that’s a bit larger than the Palma, but cheaper and more portable than its other options, like the Go Color 7 or the Go 10.3.
