      I hate that this tech is still so expensive… It has been 20 years, yet an eink phone with the specs of a $30 boost phone is like $300

      E-ink is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more battery efficient and more pleasant to read: If you just want to read an ebook, this will let you read for days without charging.

      I don’t have one of these but I do have a Kobo Libre and it’s great if you like reading. I charge maybe once or twice a month if that.
