Is there an independent review, preferably video?

#102Man looked super cool but its just too expensive for me. I hope you guys are successful so your price point can go down a little so I can buy one in the future!

#103Hi yall, founder of Daylight here. Happy to answer any questions you have. Long time lurker, so this is pretty cool to finally take part :) I made this because I wanted the eye-strain free and minimalist qualities of my kindle/Eink applied to so much more of what I do on a computer. Lack of speed and ghosting felt like it made traditional Eink impossible to do most computing tasks. So we focused on making the most Pa…
What if I want this display tech but just as a monitor to use with my existing setup for doing engineering work? (E.g. emacs, tiling window manager, etc.) The device as it's presented looks like a consumption device ("tablet" etc), but tech like this seems like it'd be most useful for a production device (general purpose computing device, programming/development tools). I'd like the display, but uncoupled from the li…
Keep an eye on the market for RLCD monitors. I read Hanspree are releasing one ~Sept.

#104IMO, the software will be the most important part of the device, not necessarily the screen.
What makes the Remarkable great is that it's functionality (while limited) makes for an excellent experience.
Any more details on what apps will be built in and designed for the device? (not just 3rd party Android apps that will feel like any other tablet).
Also - I would order this immediately to support more e-ink devices, but the display is too small for me - at least 13" to display full page documents.

I watched the videos here: https://daylightco.gorgias.help/en-US#article-509983
But it looks like it suffers from backlight bleeding if the screen brightness is at medium or full. I'm a bit concerned about that, can you help explain why that is happening.

#106Earlier quoted context omitted.
Huge congrats! I've been dreaming of something like this for a while - instant pre-order!
your support means everything! thank you! i wish people could understand how hard it is to survive low volume novel consumer electronics.. not meant to solicit pity, but to appreciate why we're all just stuck with big tech after indie company after indie company fail
make a display for framework laptop. please

we've built our own PDF parser / renderer, so we have a pretty good beta PDF reader app we're building
next up would be epub reader / support
and then building our own notetaker & typewriter app (though google docs, lex.page, IA writer are pretty good)
and many more services and apps, like actually finally good handwriting recognition

#108Looks nice! I think I'd only get it if I could use it as a monitor though. Displaying more than grayscale colors would be a plus too. Still glad to see it though.
we aim to build a monitor, but hardware companies arent very hot for VCs, so cash flow from selling the tablet is the primary way we are going to fund building a monitor, phone, and laptop
So good to hear! This seems like it would be right up the alley for a company like Nothing Phone
