I’m not that techy on the screens front but it’s not totally a regular lcd but not as good as e-ink either. It’s kinda something in between. I’ve only gotten to play with it a for a few minutes so far but it’s hard to describe. These pictures do it some justice though: androidcentral.com/…/tcl-nxtpaper-4-fixes-one-of-…

If anyone was wondering: www.tcl.com/us/en/products/…/nxtpaper-11-gen2
11 inch display with 60 hz refresh, but it sounds like regular lcd rather than e-ink? It has an 8000mah battery that it says can run the tablet through a full day, so that’s nothing like an epaper tablet.
Anyway, I’ve been using Librera FD for reading epubs on Android. Its blurb mentions annotations but I’ve never tried that feature.
I have an Inkplate 10 e-paper tablet but haven’t been using it.

I see, yeah there is something about it in the blurb. How do you like the tablet? Is it responsive? Is it full of Android bloatware? Do you know if it is rootable?
I see there is a 14 inch version that’s about $300 and that starts to get interesting. It’s not “2nd gen” though. And, I had thought of TCL as a lower tier manufacturer with quality issues, but I hadn’t looked into it much.
I like that the tablet has an SD (probably microSD) slot. Don’t like that there’s no headphone jack. There’s plenty of space in those things compared to a phone.

It’s lcd with some matte finish, far from eink.
