The Boox Palma 3 is the compact e-reader Android fans have been waiting for
There's also stylus support
The Boox Palma 3 is a compact e-reader that resembles a smartphone and has been announced with several upgrades. It features a 6.13-inch, 300ppi E Ink Carta display, similar to its predecessor. The device has a redesigned enclosure with an anodized aluminum frame and a paper-like fiberglass backplate, giving it a more premium look.
According to TechSpot, the Palma 3 runs on Android 16, which is one generation behind the latest public Android release. It is powered by a Qualcomm Q-6690 octa-core processor, paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, which can be expanded with a microSD card. The device also has a 3,950mAh rechargeable battery, a 16-megapixel rear camera, and a fingerprint reader built into the power button.
The Boox Palma 3 is expected to be available soon for $339.99, which is a lower price point than its predecessor, the Palma 2, which was priced at $400. It also offers active stylus support, courtesy of the Boox InkSense Plus stylus, and a camera, which sets it apart from some of its rivals, such as the ViWoods AiPaper Reader, according to TechRadar.
