Boox adds three new E Ink devices

Boox refreshed its E Ink lineup with two color notebooks and a phone-sized reader built for quiet second-screen use.

In brief

Boox refreshed its E Ink lineup with two color notebooks and a phone-sized reader built for quiet second-screen use. Boox is pushing E Ink beyond reading, with Android 16, Play Store access, note tools, AI summaries, and more portable hardware. Originally reported by Mashable.

Three new devices

The Boox Note Air6 C, Note Mini C, and Palma 3

Boox unveiled the Note Air6 C, Note Mini C, and Palma 3 on Sept. 15, 2026. The Palma 3 revives its tiny reader line after the Palma 2 was discontinued.

“Boox unveiled three new E Ink electronics: the Note Air6 C, Note Mini C, and Palma 3.”

Faster Android hardware

All three run Android 16 with an upgraded octa-core processor, Google Play Store access, Bluetooth 6.0, and Boox BSR refresh tech to cut ghosting.

Prices start high

The Note Air6 C is available now for $579.99. The Note Mini C also costs $579.99, while the Palma 3 will arrive soon at $339.99.

Palma gets sturdier

The Boox Palma 3

The Palma 3 swaps the Palma 2's plastic body for an aluminum frame and adds a paper-textured fiberglass back. Boox pitches it as a low-stimulation second screen, not a Kindle clone.

“Boox embraces the "Quiet Tech" philosophy”

Small reader, extra tools

The Palma 3 has a 6.13-inch, 300 ppi screen, dual-tone front light, 128GB of storage, 6GB RAM, a camera with LED flash for scanning, and dual mics for voice memos.

Air6 C goes work mode

The Note Air6 C and Note Mini C

The 10.3-inch Note Air6 C adds side-by-side document annotation, Calendar Memo upgrades, Lasso, Talk Insights, real-time transcription, and AI document summaries.

“40 percent faster page turning”

Mini C shrinks the notebook

The Note Mini C uses an 8.52-inch Kaleido 3 display and is 6 millimeters thin at 300 grams. It supports work apps like Teams, Outlook, Slack, and OneDrive.
