Boox P6 Pro announced with 5G connectivity, Kaleido 3 color E Ink screen | Infinium-tech

After a series of teasers, Onyx has officially announced its latest smartphone-sized e-reader – the Boox P6 Pro. It is notable because it adds cellular connectivity with full 5G support and also comes in a special edition with a Kaleido 3 color E Ink screen with 4096 colors, as we have seen on Amazon’s Kindle ColorSoft models.

The Boox P6 Pro also comes in a regular monochrome E Ink screen version, using the Carta 1300 screen. Both have a diagonal of 6.13 inches and some large bezels around the screen. One advantage of the Color E Ink models is additional stylus support.

Both feature etched glass panels and 824 x 1,684 px resolution and automatic brightness adjustment. You also get stereo speakers and a single rear-facing 16-megapixel camera, which will be useful for scanning QR codes.

The P6 Pro series comes with an unspecified octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset coupled with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. You can also expand the storage thanks to the onboard microSD card slot. The P6 Pro model boots Boox OS 4.1 based on Android 13 and supports dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5 connectivity. It also has a 3,950 mAh battery with 15W charging over USB-C.
