What we like about Pocketbook Inkpad Eo

  • Large 10.3-inch Kaleido 3 color e-paper display with 300 PPI for black and white content
  • Full access to the Google Play Store due to the Android 11 operating system
  • Strong hardware build quality with an ergonomic design and metal construction
  • Excellent battery life (4000 mAh) that can last for weeks with typical reading use
  • Includes global handwriting feature allowing users to write in third-party apps
  • Low writing latency (under 20ms) in the native note-taking application
  • Convenient document scanning thanks to a flush-mounted rear camera

What we don't like about Pocketbook Inkpad Eo

  • High price point (approx. $579/£489) makes it less competitive than similar e-ink tablets
  • Outdated Android 11 operating system with aging security patches
  • Clunky and non-intuitive user interface with important menus buried in submenus
  • Included stylus feels lightweight/cheap and lacks magnetic attachment to the tablet
  • Poor handwriting performance and high lag in non-native third-party apps
  • Heavier and bulkier (470g) compared to some competitors, which can affect long reading sessions
  • Software bugs and inconsistent firmware updates that have occasionally broken functionality

Verdict

The PocketBook InkPad Eo is a versatile 10.3-inch e-note and e-reader featuring a Kaleido 3 colour E Ink screen with a resolution of 300 PPI for black-and-white and 150 PPI for colour. Powered by an 8-core 2.3 GHz processor with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of expandable storage, it runs on Android 11, providing full access to the Google Play Store for third-party apps. Main characteristics include a built-in 8MP rear camera for document scanning and photo-sketching, integrated stereo speakers with four microphones, and a 4000 mAh battery. Key pros include the eye-friendly SMARTlight with adjustable colour temperature, global handwriting support that allows for stylus input across various apps, and broad file compatibility for 17 formats out of the box. However, notable cons include an outdated operating system (Android 11), a somewhat heavy 470g build that can be tiring for long reading sessions, and reported software lag in menus and third-party applications.
