If you rely on digital notetaking for school or work, an e-ink device is a boon. Black Friday‘s lingering deals are delivering some unexpectedly great finds. Whether you need an A4-sized canvas for PDFs or something slimmer for daily class notes, Boox still has two standout devices on sale.
Even though Black Friday ended yesterday, the Boox Note Max is down to $655 (a $185 discount off its $840 list price), and the Boox Go 10.3 is now $390, down $20. You can also add the Note Max keyboard cover at 50% off for a more laptop-like setup.
The Note Max packs a crisp 300 ppi Carta 1300 display, ideal for reading and heavy PDF markups. It runs on an octa‑core processor with 6GB RAM, supports Google Play apps and, according to PCMag’s review, “If you’re looking for a serious digital notebook with no distractions, this one delivers.”
The Go 10.3, on the other hand, features a 10.3-inch Carta 1200 screen with 300 ppi clarity, stylus support, Android 12 and a lightweight 5mm frame. With 4GB RAM, 64GB storage, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, speakers and a mic, it’s built for portable reading and notetaking.
If you’re in savings mode, there are still some great deals to be had at Amazon, Walmart and Best Buy.
