This is an honest review of things to know before buying an Onyx Boox e-ink tablet, applicable to any Boox models. The device featured in the video is the Poke 3 which I've had for over a year, and the Kindle compared is a 6th gen Paperwhite (released 2013).
► Are you looking into buying a Boox and in the US, UK or EU? I HIGHLY recommend doing it through Amazon if possible. It is very likely the return/replacement/repair policies will be more favorable for you than for purchases made on the Boox website directly.
Boox Amazon storefront links:

🇬🇧 UK - https://amzn.to/3I3ZZpl
The above may be true for other countries as well. You can check against Boox store return policies here: https://shop.boox.com/pages/return
00:00 why I say this video is for any Boox
00:36 what I'm NOT saying
00:51 who I think SHOULD get a Boox
01:25 hardware - planned obsolescence?
02:04 major concern 1 and solutions
03:31 major concern 2 and solutions
04:09 software user experience
05:52 some advice, and a bit on device security
06:18 for users who read in the dark
06:49 for reading ONLY: get a Boox or a Kindle?
I still really like my Boox, but that comes with a few caveats, which I outline in the video. I think Boox has a great lineup of devices with some game-changing functions, but you should know what you're getting into!
I know I'm going to get asked about the blue case in the video! It was purchased locally but these look to be the same models: https://amzn.to/3IEycun or https://amzn.to/3LhAz89
