The WeChat Reading App is equipped with a 6-inch E Ink Carta 1300 electronic ink screen with a resolution of 1448×1072 (300 dpi), and the display effect is close to that of paper. The device is equipped with a Qualcomm 2.0 GHz octa-core processor , equipped with 2GB of memory and 32GB of storage space , runs the Android 11 system, and provides a basic e-book reading experience. This configuration is entry-level in the current e-book market and is suitable for daily reading needs.
Lightweight design, suitable for long-term use
The reader body measures 148×108×6.8mm and weighs only 145 grams . It is relatively light and thin and suitable for holding in one hand. Ink screen technology can reduce the impact of blue light, provide a relatively comfortable reading experience, and is suitable for long-term use.
Deep integration with WeChat Reading App
This reader supports synchronization with WeChat Reading accounts , allowing users to seamlessly switch reading progress between their phones and the reader. In addition, the device does not support the Google Play Store and is mainly suitable for e-books in the WeChat Reading App , which is more inclined to a closed ecosystem.
As an e-book reader manufactured by Onyx and launched by WeChat Reading, this device is mainly aimed at users who are accustomed to using WeChat Reading. Compared to other e-book readers on the market, its hardware specifications are entry-level, but thanks to its deep integration with WeChat Reading, it provides a more convenient reading option for readers who have already subscribed to the platform.
