Boox Picco

The Boox Picco is official, with the company demonstrating the device at IFA. The Boox Picco is a 4.7″ EINK device with a touchscreen, frontlight and… drumroll… USB C! I can hear XTEINK users frustrated with the pogo plug getting excited about the Boox Picco already. The Picco does not run Android 11, as originally hoped. It seems to be a custom OS. So we can hope it’s an ESP32 device and that we’ll have another reader that supports Crosspoint. Price is unknown, but it would need to be $100 to be competitive with XTEINK’s X4 Pro. Feature wise, the Boox Picco is a real alternative to the XTEINK X4 Pro from a company well known for EINK devices.
