While we hope that sometime in 2018 we will have those eReaders and monitors with those new color panels With electronic ink, today we go to a new E-Ink monitor that Dasung has been showing off this month with a series of videos on YouTube.
In those videos that appeared on YouTube, Dasung showed the monitor performing various tasks and now we know the reasons for its launch, and it is that last week Dasung launched a campaign of crowdfunding on Indiegogo for its Paperlike 13,3-inch monitor.
The reserve price for the Paperlike arrives up to $ 799 with free shipping in United States. A monitor that is expected to begin to be distributed in August of this year. Having a slightly low funding target, they have exceeded it by 450 percent.
They put on sale up to 30 monitors that could be bought for $ 699, but they have already been reserved by some users, so if you want to get one you will have to go through that price of $ 799. From Dasung they maintain that the price of the monitors when they are in the market will be 995 dollars, so, if you were thinking of buying one, perhaps it is time to reserve it to save 196 dollars.
The price of the monitor is higher than 13,3-inch E-ink readers such as the Onyx Boox Max, which has access to a touch screen, Android operating system, internal and external storage, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and a good number of features that Paperlike lacks.
The Paperlike is a E-ink display with USB cable and a support. It has no battery, touch screen, or operating system. It serves as nothing more than a secondary monitor for the PC. Another of its handicaps is that it will have an E-ink Fina panel that is made of glass, unlike other eReaders that have a plastic-based Mobius panel.
A rather striking concept for an E-ink monitor, but of which it will be necessary to see if it has that success expected. You have the campaign on Indiegogo from here.
Hello, I want this to avoid being "blind" working (browsing, mail, slack and trello), I don't care one or the other, the onyx max or the 13,3 goodereader can work well and easily as monitors?
The paperlike when connecting by cable should go faster than by vnc or similar over wifi. So far my experience with android on eink has been lamentable using an onyx t68, too slow and unproductive to work.
Regards!
