The Onyx Boox Page is a strong text reader with a week-long battery, but its built-in store only offers public domain books, so bring your own library.

What we don't like about Onyx Boox Page

  • Noticeable ghosting issues, particularly when viewing images, comics, or using non-native apps
  • No official IP rating for waterproofing, making it less durable near water
  • Steep learning curve due to the complexity of Android and numerous customisable settings
  • Lacks a system-wide native dark mode, leading to bright screen flashes during page turns in dark themes
  • Native Onyx bookstore is limited mainly to public domain works
  • Higher price point compared to dedicated ecosystem e-readers like the Kindle Paperwhite
  • Plastic chassis can be a fingerprint magnet and may feel less premium than metal competitors

Verdict

The Onyx Boox Page is a versatile 7-inch e-reader featuring a high-resolution 300 PPI E Ink Carta 1200 display and built-in physical page-turn buttons. Powered by a Qualcomm octa-core processor and 3GB of RAM, it runs on Android 11, providing full access to the Google Play Store for third-party apps like Kindle and Kobo. Key hardware highlights include 32GB of internal storage expandable via microSD, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, and an adjustable Moon Light 2 front-lit system for warm or cold tones. Its main pros are the exceptional portability of its 195g lightweight design and the freedom to access multiple reading ecosystems on one device. However, common cons include the lack of a waterproof rating, occasional screen ghosting that requires manual refreshing, and a slower boot-up time when the device is fully powered down to save battery.
