As a bibliophile with limited storage space in my home, I’ve relied on a Kindle to house my personal library for more than a decade. After all, you can’t habitually fall asleep with a stack of hardcovers (not that I haven’t tried). When the Kindle Scribe landed on my desk, I fell in love with the idea of an e-reader with even more functionality, throwing my notebook obsession into the same Mary Poppins bag of tricks as my e-books.
However, the BOOX Note Air 4C completely overhauled my interpretation of what an E-Ink tablet can offer. Sleek and powerfully built, it runs Android 13 for app access, delivers a surprisingly good writing experience, and features a vibrant color display that handles all kinds of content. It’s not cheap, and it won’t replace your multimedia tablet, but for anyone wanting their Kindle to do a lot more than just downsize their bookshelf, I think the Note Air 4C offers plenty. Let me explain how.
