The Best LCD Writing Tablet - Xiaomi Mijia LCD Blackboard

[@heroes-of-balkan]

If this tablet could send data to PC as you input on the tablet, it would be excellent tablet!

[@mariolis]

Thats the point tho its not electronic , its not a tablet it should just be seen as paper that you can use over and over again

[@zavaraninoveuhorky]

new versions for china market have that function... sadly it will take months to arrive at my market (EU) so i have to get by this version

[@meMYSELFnU]

I would like to confirm this is indeed the best writing tablet. Sadly, it's not offered in my country so I had to purchase it from abroad, it got held up at customs and I had to pay double the cost just for clearance. So when I felt like purchasing a second, the second time around I settled for another brand that was offered locally. And let me tell you... the local one looks and feels so cheap that I want my money back. This one truly exudes quality.

[@iwanbulajic2]

Can you use it for studying and practice math? Thanks

[@meMYSELFnU]

@@iwanbulajic2 It's like a sheet of A4 paper that you can write on and erase. So it's good for anything you need to write down but not keep for long.

[@iwanbulajic2]

@@meMYSELFnU was it durable for the time you had it? Anyway i saw someone recommend a app which works flawlessly with this device (can convert note into black and white drawing) sorry for my bad English and thanks again 👍🏻

[@meMYSELFnU]

@@iwanbulajic2 I still use it, I even bought a second one. I'm a teacher so I use one with my students and I have a second one at home with to-do lists for the day. I don't know about any apps but I sometimes do take pics of the board with my phone before erasing, and that works fine for me. I'm very happy with the quality, I have tried 3 different brands and this is the best.

[@meMYSELFnU]

I honestly don't know why you would ask about the other brands, considering I just said they were a lot worse :D One of them was rather a children's toy. It leaves a trace in all colours of the rainbow. For me that's fine since I'm a teacher and give it to 5-year-olds to learn the alphabet. The other was very bad quality and the pen was made of plastic with rough edges that scratched my fingers. I would suggest just googling what is offered in your country and choose the best.

[@ceesparxxx]

If this thing was capable of earasing mistakes, instead of erasing the entire display, it'd be the best by far. But its a little hard to overlook that fact for me lol.

[@yakuza01]

yeah, I agree. That's kind of a big downside to me but might still give it a try due to the very low price.

[@merlefi6162]

This would be so much fun for making some quick sketches!

[@NReluctant]

It is awesome for that!

[@AnjaLSL]

I bought this. It is sturdy but quite heavy. Also it is too smooth to write on. It feels more like glass than paper which gives you less control. I had a cheaper one once, that felt more like paper. Also the "pressure sensitivity" is no more than other lcd tablets. I just want to inform you all because I bought three and now I wish I'd only bought one...

How was it after a year? I just changed mine's button battery after a year because I noticed the writings became harder to erase like, you need to press the erase button a couple of times to completely clear it and the greenish "ink" color became more on the brownish side or like it's loosing its "ink." After battery replacement I still don't see that green bright tint compared to when it's still new.

Mine is still working great.

[@stratosg9899]

I have exactly the same problem, I need to press the erase button 10 or more times in order to erase completely the screen, and the fault is not the battery. Does anyone has a solution?

[@huaren1978]

Can it do partial erase, say when we made a spelling mistake and we want to erase then rewrite?

[@chriss8971]

No. It's one of the reasons it's so cheap. You pay a lot more for models with partial erase.
