Color E-ink looks CRAZY Under a Microscope!

[@AntVenom]

A long time ago, there actually was a smart watch that used a colored e-ink display. The Pebble Time. After Pebble was sold off, I was always amazed that the technology didn’t seem to get iterated on much. It seemed like it had a ton of potential, especially with how smooth the animations were on that watch.

[@RayRayIsCoolio]

man, an eink display on a smartwatch sounds amazing

[@LinkofLight]

Yes! It always amazed me how that watch's display seems to have been forgotten about. I still use it to this day (thanks Rebble) and it's honestly incredible smooth and colorful it is. It obviously isn't as vibrant as a traditional display, but it's still one of the best e-inks I've ever seen. I imagine it's small size has something to do with it, but I would have hoped that almost a decade of technological innovation would have made that technology more widespread in e-readers and such. Edit: After reading through some more comments, turns out the Pebble Time was an "e-paper" display which is a different technology. The more you know! I still think my last sentence still applies, that the low-power, paper-like display market should have developed so much more by now. Whether is issues with patents, lack of research or funding, or whatever reason, it's still a shame and I hope the slow uptick in these kinds of devices help push these technologies forward.

[@elaquen7]

i feel like the fact that a single company holds all the patents to e ink technology makes innovation less likely to appear, since that company is the only source of advancement in this field and there is no competition.

[@jeremia9077]

The reveal that it was really just a normal E-ink display, but with a color-filter, was somehow mindblowing. Reminds me of how CRT screens did the same thing. Tho, it also explains the muted colors, and why they didn't go with a subtractive color scheme (CYMK) even tho they're dealing with physical pigments.

Pebble Time smart watch used coloured eink

[@yensteel]

Agreed, companies such as Sony, Seiko, and Fossil Hybrid all use E-ink displays but the common consumer aren’t attracted to them so they got low sales and died out. Features/price is a common factor most people care about. Tech that looks old is unattractive to them. “If it looks old, it has to be cheap. If it’s not cheap, I would rather get a Samsung/Apple/Garmin instead”

[@Tomazack]

@@simmmomom No. It was coloured LCD disguising as e-paper, not e-ink.

[@StarkRG]

As an owner of several Pebble watches, @@Tomazack is correct, the screens are a very-low-power type of LCD. They don't have the ghosting problems that e-ink has, resulting in higher usable refresh rates (though "update rate" is probably a better term to use with e-ink), but they still require power to maintain a static image. I think some people were confused because they're transflective, meaning they use reflected ambient light most of the time but have a backlight if you need to see it in the dark (the slightly underhanded marketing didn't help).

Awesome video! Just a note: E-Ink devices have frontlights, with LEDs sitting in the bezel either on the side or bottom/top of the screen. The light is guided by a light carrier film on top of the e-ink screen, so the screen is evenly lit.

[@sungi7833]

If you've ever seen other eInk displays, the refresh rate on this screen is insane!

[@krelsen7]

i think some devices in the past have been able to do this, but the tradeoff is that the higher refresh rate leaves more ghosting, so it's usually a setting.

[@ziginox]

The refresh rate really reminded me of those awful passive STN displays from the early/mid-2000s. Honestly, not bad.

[@yensteel]

Boox’s super refresh technology is really good, the best in the industry but it is more intensive on the battery. What users are really complaining about is that BSR is always turned on. You get 10x more battery life on the Note Air 3 (B/W) than the Note Air 3C.

[@epaper_eink]

[@Steamrick]

I have the Lenovo ThinkBook Plus G4 with colored eInk secondary display. The display is very much like the one shown here - probably from the same factory, too. The Lenovo has two options for driving the eInk: A high-refresh mode with 12Hz that has decent ghosting and very bad contrast and colours - as seen here. The other mode is called 'reader mode' with maybe 2Hz, long input lag and terrible ghosting, but the colours are *much* more vibrant. Great for reading books or comics, but useless for anything where the content changes with any regularity.

I would like the idea of an e-ink display on a transit pass, so that you can see how many tickets are left on the card, or even a credit card, so that you can selectively display information.

[@rogeliocano9536]

[@AltCutTV]

There are screen differences too of course. But usually it has less to do with the screen than the processing board. The more regular e-book focused readers mostly go for battery time and use as low power CPU and OS as possible. Like the typical Kobo. But some using the exact same screen (Tolino for example) have a more powerful CPU and run Android. They are perceived as updating faster because of this. The downside, battery time. Being counted in days instead of weeks.

[@rogeliocano9536]

The pebble watch used a type of LCD screen that had chips next to every pixel that allowed it to save power not e-ink. The reason not many companies use e-ink is because one company owns the patents on e-ink and that means that no other company can use it without paying exorbitant amounts of money for something that may not sell.

[@bimalbasnet65]

I know many people have issues with E-Ink displays due to refresh rate and other factors. But we need to understand that e-ink was created to replicate paper on an electronic device. And given that, it has been hugely successful. I myself own a Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition 11th generation, and trust me it is a game changer for avid readers. You wont ever have to buy a book from a local store again. And as for colour e-ink displays, its going to be a revolution for Manga readers, if the colour version is available.

[@-nathopolis-7024]

“Rubber protection is always a good idea” that was subtle but hilarious

[@Spl1ntMan]

4:34 LCDs (Liquid Crystal Displays) typically do not have colored diodes. Instead, they use a combination of a white backlight and colored filters to produce images. Here’s a more detailed explanation of how this works: Backlight: LCDs use a white backlight, which is often composed of LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) that produce white light. This backlight illuminates the entire screen from behind. Liquid Crystal Layer: The liquid crystal layer controls the amount of light that passes through by aligning the liquid crystals in different ways when an electric current is applied. This alignment changes the light's polarization. Color Filters: In front of the liquid crystal layer, there are color filters arranged in a grid of red, green, and blue (RGB) sub-pixels. Each pixel on the screen is made up of three sub-pixels, one for each primary color. Sub-pixel Control: By varying the alignment of the liquid crystals in each sub-pixel, the amount of light passing through the red, green, and blue filters can be controlled independently. This allows the display to create different colors by combining different intensities of these primary colors.

I never thought I'd see Zack bring in a BOOX device for testing. (2:35) It IS a great idea, Zack. The rubber cap is there to prevent the nib from getting bent while not in use. I lost the pen cap for my BOOX Pen2 Pro (different from the Pen Plus included with the tablet but still included a rubber cap), and the nib ended up getting bent when I carry my Note Air2 in my backpack. I would then keep forgetting to find a substitute for the cap. Argh! (7:02) To help you figure out the name: There was originally a model that was just called the BOOX Note 10.3, which in turn was the successor to their N96 series, and was then succeeded with a few models up to the Note Pro, then the Note2. That series lasted up to the Note5 alongside which the Note Air was released which was, to me, basically their answer to the reMarkable 2 which came out around that time, but with their more open software experience. It was followed up with the Note Air2 (the regular Note series was discontinued), Note Air2 Plus, then the current series which is the Note Air3 (greyscale display) and Note Air3 C (colour display). (7:11) (corrected at 9:34) There was a Chalid Raqami KZbin video where he peeled the plastic layer off. (7:31) (corrected at 8:58) (7:58) The Tab series does have a camera and camera bump as that series is optimised for productivity (the camera is used primarily for scanning of print documents), while the other series like the Note series are optimised for reading. (9:27) That reminded me of some posts I saw on the official BOOX Facebook group where the EPD panels somehow manage to break, however that had never happened to mine.

Also, I am fairly certain that most of the BOOX tablets with “matte” displays are in fact using glossy glass with a textured plastic layer pre-applied at the factory. It is nice to know that they’re using strong, scratch resistant plastic for that.

I've just learned that e-ink screen pixel have texture like film grain, this might just be a better screen type for movies in the future, if some companies dare to invest in to fix the low refresh rate and limited color.

4:21 the e-ink display is reflecting the light not combing the colors like a classic display. So you can make white by reflecting red green and blue.
