I put away my Kindle within minutes of using this handheld e-reader - and it runs on Android

The article reviews the Onyx Boox Palma 2 Pro, a $399 compact, Android 15-based color E Ink device with 8GB RAM, Snapdragon 750G, hybrid SIM with 5G data (no cellular calling), stylus support, and Google Play access to major ebook ecosystems. Its Kaleido 3 display offers adjustable refresh and color modes with decent clarity, though text can appear small without optimization and ghosting requires periodic refreshes; the textured body feels premium but may attract dirt, making a case advisable. While note-taking is responsive, the 6.13-inch screen limits extensive writing or sketching, positioning the Palma 2 Pro as a highly portable, smartphone-like e-reader with broad app flexibility and solid battery life rather than a primary notetaking tablet.
