The Boox Go 6 (Gen II), priced at $200, is the newest version of Boox's Android-powered ereader, launched this summer. It features a 6-inch E Ink screen with a 300PPI resolution, which is high enough to provide clear text and images without straining the eyes. The device also includes stylus support, allowing users to take notes, highlight text, and draw directly on the screen. Available in four colors—Shell, Custard, Plum, and Stone—the Go 6 (Gen II) has 3GB of RAM, up from 2GB in the previous model, and 32GB of internal storage that can be expanded with a microSD card. It runs on Android 11, which is functional but does not receive the latest security updates. The device has a 1,500mAh battery, offering several days of use with moderate reading and app use. However, its battery life is shorter than that of competitors like the Kindle and Kobo. The Go 6 (Gen II) is not water- or dust-resistant, so it is recommended to use a protective case in environments like the beach or poolside. Weighing 160 grams, it is lighter than the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and includes an adjustable front light with options for dimming, brightness, and color temperature to reduce eye strain during long reading sessions. The Go 6 (Gen II) supports stylus input through the Boox InkSense Plus, which is sold separately for $46 or included in a bundle with the ereader. The stylus works well with the default reader app and some third-party apps, allowing users to highlight text and take notes. However, the experience is not as smooth as using a dedicated writing device like the Supernote Nomad. The Go 6 (Gen II) does not have a built-in bookstore with a wide selection of books, so users must rely on third-party apps like Bookshop.org, The StoryGraph, and Moon+ Reader. These apps can be used to buy, rent, and read books, but some settings may need adjustment to optimize readability on the E Ink display. Ghosting—where previous screen images linger—can occur when switching between apps and menus, though Boox offers various refresh and color modes to help reduce this effect. Files can be transferred using BooxDrop, cloud storage, or a USB-C cable, and the device includes features like adjustable refresh frequency and app-specific settings to optimize performance. While the Go 6 (Gen II) is a versatile ereader with Android capabilities, it may not be necessary for those who already own a first-generation Go 6. It is a good option for users looking for more flexibility with third-party apps and stylus support, though some setup and configuration may be needed.
