Last week I posted about a new device from Onyx that turned up on the FCC website called the Boox Go 10.3, and now it has officially been released. That was fast.
The Boox Go 10.3 has some cool things going for it, like the fact that it’s the first eNote other than the Kindle Scribe to have a 10″ 300 ppi E Ink screen. It also runs Android 12 and has Google Play built-in for installing apps. The price is also pretty reasonable at $379.
However, there is one thing that some folks just aren’t going to like about the Go 10.3, and that’s the fact that it lacks a frontlight, which seems like an odd choice in this day and age. But this is Onyx we’re talking about! They’ll most likely release a “Pro” model in a few months with a frontlight and some other upgrades.
Other than the higher resolution screen and the lack of a light, the Boox Go 10.3 is a lot like the Note Air3 from a specs and features standpoint, but it has a different design so it’s quite a bit smaller and lighter. It’s only 4.6 mm thick, and it weighs in at 375 grams, which is 75 grams lighter than the Note Air3.
