It’s not technically an E Ink phone but...

It is a 6-inch E Ink Android tablet. So that kind of makes the Boox Palma an E Ink phone right? The lack of a SIM tray means this won’t be replacing anyone’s iPhone, but given it initially went on sale for $250 you can bet I’ll be buying one as a secondary device to hang out in my purse.
