I ordered mine last Apr 10th Friday and got it on Apr 13th Monday only because Canada Post doesn’t deliver during the weekends. The tablet, keyboard and the stylus are all in really really good condition. I ordered their einktab emr stylus too and it’s flawless. I also don’t have to worry about the cap that the boox pen 3 has. 5 stars for the fast processing, delivery and product quality. Highly recommend 👍

The Boox Note Air 5C has the exact capabilities I was looking for. Scrapbooking, note taking, sketching and OCR are very good. The only drawback is the very dim and reflective screen making work hard on the eyes and outdoors work impossible. Without the back light on full it’s not possible to work and battery life is just a few hours.

Hi Marc,
Thank you for your feedback.
The Note Air 5C uses a color E Ink screen, which may appear dimmer compared to black-and-white E Ink devices. You may refer to the following blog for more details:
https://einktab.ca/why-color-e-ink-tablets-look-darker-than-black-and-white-e-ink-screens/
Regarding the lighting, please note that E Ink screens use front light rather than backlight. This is one of the key differences between E Ink and LED screens, and it is also what makes E Ink more eye-friendly.
To improve battery efficiency, you may try adjusting the following settings:
Go to Settings > Power
Set Wi-Fi to disconnect immediately after sleep
Set Bluetooth to disconnect immediately after sleep
Set Audio to disconnect immediately after sleep
Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Nice device. The pen and the pen management is the weak point is all. Very quickly you will lose either the rubber cap or the top cap. Getting a new pen is inevitable.
