The Bigme hibreak Pro, a new Android-powered e-reader, is now available for pre-order for $439. What sets it apart from other E Ink devices is its powerful hardware, which could result in a smoother user experience compared to its competitors.
A Boost in Performance
The Hibreak Pro is equipped with a MediaTek Dimensity 1080 2.6GHz processor and 8GB of RAM, specifications usually found in mid-range smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy A34. This promising combination could translate to a more responsive Android 14 interface, even without the latest software updates. While it may not match the performance of flagship smartphones like the Pixel 8a, the Hibreak Pro aims to offer a distinct advantage for users seeking a distraction-free experience.
Focus on Reading, Not Entertainment
“the experience won’t be comparable to what you get on smartphones,” the device’s specifications make it clear that its primary focus is not on gaming or video streaming.Its limited 21fps refresh rate, even though enhanced with Bigme’s “SSS” fast refresh technology, means users shouldn’t expect a smooth experience for video content or fast-paced games. Scrolling through TikTok or other visually-intensive apps may also not be as engaging. This device is ideal for individuals seeking a mobile device that minimizes distractions and prioritizes the benefits of E Ink such as extended battery life and reduced eye strain.
E Ink Display and Features
The Hibreak Pro boasts a crisp 300ppi E Ink screen,matching the resolution of the amazon Kindle Paperwhite,ensuring a high-quality reading experience. With a 4,500mAh battery, users can enjoy extended reading sessions without frequent charging.The device also includes an impressive array of features: a 20-megapixel rear camera and a 5-megapixel selfie camera, a microSD slot for expandable storage, GPS, NFC, an IR port for global remote control functionality, and a fingerprint reader integrated into the lock button.
A Unique Niche in the Market
