It's not an e-ink display, but rather a monochrome transreflective lcd. [1] [1] https://www.reddit.com/r/eink/comments/1bk294i/comment/kvx17...

#522Hi 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…
Adding an additional comment here for a little extra visibility. I would absolutely love, like really love, a USB-C portrait monitor version of this. If I could just plug this in to my existing laptop and use it for reading specs, technical docs, …etc that would be amazing. Android tablet is a tough sell for my employer due to compliance, security, and such. So buying one of those for work use would take like a year…

I second this. I really enjoy reading and writing on an Onyx e-ink tab, and I like the full Android functionality, but I can never use it for work or even for personal email logins, because I don't trust their custom Android build. I would be somewhat more inclined to trust Daylight than Onyx, but any custom OS is too potentially vulnerable to backdoors for my use cases. Something like this that you could load your o…

FYI: goodereader has a bad reputation in the eink world. Their reviews are fair but their shop is borderline scam.
Thanks for the head's up. I don't agree.

Anyway, congratulations! I both hope you succeed and that it helps drag the 60Hz eink needle forward across the industry.

Any chance of the A4 size device and higher DPI in the future? Will pay any money for that. A4 e-ink has considerable audience that doesn't know they need it – people who read papers. All the academia is formatted for A4 and stored in PDFs, which is pretty unreadable even on 10". People literally print them on paper to read. I currently enjoying A4-sized Boox Tab X and it's a game changer, as I read a lot of papers a…

It’s reflective LCD (RLCD).
But with a backlight, which is novel I think?

but I would totally love this. in fact, I have a remarkable tablet just for reading "papers" (ahem Dungeons & Dragons PDFs). but switching quickly between pages is tricky there...
