There is very little left for the Kobo Aura One to launch, it's something many already know, including Kobo's rivals. It is because of that many manufacturers are applying discounts on their devices to make them more attractive for those who are looking for an eReader these days or just want to change devices.
Onyx Boox does not have an 8-inch device but is downgrading some of their eReaders like the Onyx Boox T76 Plus. This eReader has a 6,8-inch screen and a somewhat lower price than the Kindle Oasis and the Kobo Aura One. But Is it really an alternative for eReader lovers?
Onyx Boox T76 Plus will have Android 4.0 despite its ram memory
This eReader has a a single core at 1 Ghz, accompanied by 1 Gb of ram and 8 Gb of internal storage. The Onyx Boox T76 Plus screen has Carta technology with a resolution of 1.440 x 1.080 pixels. The device also has a touch screen and illuminated, which places it in the middle line of many of the eReaders on the market. But the Onyx Boox T76 Plus also has a 1.700 mAh battery and a headphone output which certifies that the device will be able to play mp3 files.
Although the most striking thing about Onyx Boox devices is their operating system. Onyx Boox T76 Plus has Android 4.0, a very old version for all the power that the device has, something that should not worry most readers but for those looking for something more like an electronic agenda or something similar.
The new price of the Onyx Boox T76 Plus is $ 209, an interesting price for many, especially if we consider it as the only alternative to the Kindle Oasis. However worth? It really doesn't seem like it. Currently there are two alternatives: either wait for eReaders like the Kobo Aura One or look for other alternatives that have similar components. In this case we could have the Tagus Tera 2015, a similar model from the same company that has a cost of 199 euros, a lower price that offers similar benefits.
In any case, it seems that the Kobo Aura One is not going to be indifferent to the market and the Onyx Boox offer won't be the only one we find Do not you think?
