The mooInk V includes a reading mode allowing it to be held half-folded like a paperback.
The ereader has a reading mode?? This changes everything!
I hear if you fold it 42 times it’s thick enough to reach the moon
Can we just get a thin tablet like e reader with small bevels that can run any normal OS? Android or Linux? Ik they are some but they are mostly Chinese with proprietary hardware and software…
Onyx Boox runs android
No custom roms
How would american with proprietary chinese hardware and software change anything for you?
I like to have control over my computing platforms? And I don’t like to have my shit break when they completely abandon the platform a couple months down the road? That’s why I want FOSS solutions.
Capitalism really doesn’t allow for FOSS hardware

Damnit!
Yeah, OLED isn’t really the best choice for an e-reader.
There’s a reason e-ink is a thing.
“The mooInk V features an 8-inch folding E Ink screen that’s been tested to survive over 200,000 bends.”
You could at least read the sub heading
Where can I get notified when this is available ? 🤔
Who asked for this, I don’t expect many people want a pocket able e reader to carry around every day, I carry my tiny shitty old Kindle in my backpack if needed, otherwise I just listen to audio books or read ebooks on my phone. But the foldable technolog itself is interesting and could have some novel applications down the line
Me* listen, it’s just one of those things you have to try for yourself, when I got my first foldy phone I didn’t get it specifically for reading (I had other more important use cases in mind) but man when I used it for the first time to read a book it was AMAZING to be able to hold it like a book.
Idk maybe I’m weird, but it’s the little things like that lol
*But I want an eink version, but that might be a ways off :(
Great, a device style I hate with a screen style I hate. I look forward to never owning one.
