The Boox Picco is coming — heres how to preorder the tiny e-reader
As of Sept. 28, preorder the Boox Picco e-reader. The tiny e-reader will launch by November, and is available to preorder for $109.99 on Boox's site.
The Boox Picco, a compact 3.97-inch e-reader, is set to launch in November at a price of $109.99. The device, part of Boox's new Tile collection, differs from the brand's other e-readers like the Palma and Go 6 which operate on Android and allow app access through Google Play Store. In contrast, the Picco Tile operates on its native library without an Android system, meaning no external apps can be accessed.
However, it does come with a few additional apps such as a Pomodoro timer and Todo (a to-do list app). Users can upload files to the Picco via a USB-C cable or the new Boox Tile app. Measuring about the size of a deck of cards, it can also magnetically attach to the back of an iPhone using MagSafe. The e-reader features a dual-tone front light for adjustable warmth and brightness and includes a power button, page-turning button, and a function switch for toggling between front light and dark mode.
Although the exact ship date remains unspecified, Boox's website indicates shipping will occur in October, though a representative confirmed delivery by November. For those looking to expand their Boox e-reader collection, the Picco can now be preordered directly from Boox's website at $109.99.
