Boox Unveils Palma 3 E-Reader With Stylus Support and Redesign
The smartphone-sized black-and-white e-reader gets a new look, added functionality and a higher price tag, according to The Verge.
Boox has announced the Palma 3, an updated version of its smartphone-sized black-and-white e-reader, nearly two years after the last update to the device, according to a report by The Verge.
The new model features a redesigned body, added stylus support, and a handful of other small updates, the report said. The changes come as the company looks to justify a significant price increase over its predecessor, depending on how buyers plan to use the device.
According to The Verge, the previous version, the Palma 2, launched in 2024 at a price of $279.99. The report noted that the Palma 3's price has risen notably compared to that earlier model, though the exact new price was not specified in the excerpt.
The Verge's report did not provide further technical specifications beyond noting the redesign, stylus compatibility and other minor functional updates. The publication did not indicate a specific release date for the device.
The Palma line has been positioned as a compact, pocket-sized alternative to larger e-ink readers, appealing to users who want an e-reader with a form factor closer to that of a smartphone.
