Boox Go 6 launches in a new generation: Android e-reader with more RAM and stylus support

The Boox Go 6 (Gen II) is now available.

A new, compact e-reader supports stylus input and handwriting recognition, and its built-in operating system makes it particularly versatile.

E-Mobility Launch

The second-generation Boox Go 6, an Android e-reader with an E Ink display, is now available. The 6-inch touchscreen has a resolution of 1448 x 1072 and supports the InkSense Plus stylus, allowing users to create sketches or annotations. Handwriting recognition is also supported. Adjustable backlighting and color temperature are also on board. However, it does not support color content, which might be a deal-breaker for comic book fans.

The device is powered by Android 11, meaning that users have access to the Play Store and can install a wide variety of apps. The device is powered by a quad-core SoC, and the RAM has been increased from 2 to 3 GB. Internal storage is 32 GB, and a microSD card slot allows for quick and easy storage expansion. Data can be transferred not only via USB-C, but also via dual-band Wi-Fi. The battery has a capacity of 1,500 mAh, which should allow the 160-gram device, measuring 149 x 109 x 6.8 millimeters, to provide many hours of reading pleasure.

The e-reader is available in the colors Polum, Stone, Shell and Custard, and the design of the back is inspired by a suitcase. The Boox Go 6 (Gen II) is priced at $399; those who prefer a color display are advised to take a look at the Boox Tablet Go Color 7 (available for $290 at Amazon).

Thanks to the technology, readability in sunlight should be very good.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

Growing up in regional Australia, I first became acquainted with computers in my early teens after a broken leg from a football (soccer) match temporarily condemned me to a predominately indoor lifestyle. Soon afterwards I was building my own systems. Now I live in Germany, having moved here in 2014, where I study philosophy and anthropology. I am particularly fascinated by how computer technology has fundamentally and dramatically reshaped human culture, and how it continues to do so.
