Onyx Boox Leaf 2
The e-reader market has long been dominated by two major players: Amazon and its Kindle devices, and Rakuten Kobo with its own line up of ebook readers, each having exclusive access to their own online book stores. With the Onyx Boox Leaf 2, avid readers don’t need to pledge allegiance to either company, because the e-reader runs Android 11 (with a customized front-end) with full access to the Google Play Store. That means users can not only load both the Kindle and Kobo Android apps, but other ebook sources, games, and even productivity apps like Gmail. The hardware is solid, too, with the Leaf 2 offering dedicated page turn buttons and a beautiful 300 PPI E Ink screen.
