#4I like their approach on going smaller, X4 has the perfect size and I feel like X3 is actually even a bit too small (missing usb c is a bit weird tho).
Compared to kindles going bigger and bigger - now with 11+ I feel like they are too big as a handheld.

#5The X3/X4 are such neat devices with a great community behind them, shame the manufacturer decided to lock down devices sold on AliExpress in an attempt to funnel potential customers into their own store instead of embracing the open source firmware like Chinese handheld gaming vendors usually do. I hope these devices being as successful as they are inspire other manufacturers to build a better device that doesn't try to force customers to choose between running the dysfunctional stock firmware, or having to purchase from the equally dysfunctional manufacturer store.

#7I dream of an e-reader which could have the qualities of a true e-ink technology (ability to read under any light conditions, especially sunny one), while allowing usage of dictionaries like the android Livio offline apps (English, French, etc. )

> missing usb c is a bit weird tho
Everything I own now except for my Pebble watch uses USB-C. I will not buy another device that doesn't use it. (At least with my new Pebble, they shipped it with a USB-C adapter.)

Thanks, do you know if this comment is true still?:
> As of the latest models, XTEINK has started to lock down the firmware to prevent users from installing Crosspoint. So, if you're reading these reviews, beware: the thing that a lot of people bought this for is going away soon.
