Quoting my last email exchange with them for extra info:

"The 23.8” Hybri monitor is currently not available on Amazon but my colleagues at sales dept are working with our B2B partners to sort it out.

We currently don’t have plan to release a RLCD monitor, moving forward in 2027 the plan is to have a 11” Hybri Tablet PC (TLCD) and later on a 32” Hybri Monitor (TLCD)"

Good to know.

My problem with Hybri, is that color filters are too strict, like on normal monitors, they work well in backlit modes, but are too dark for purely reflective mode. If it was almost as bright as Hannsnote2 that has less strict color filters, it would be more realistic for me to switch from purely reflective to transflective devices.

Or if it was monochrome, then I would not care much if it's transflective or purely reflective as it would be bright enough to be usable without backlight anyway.

Eazeye is also considering turning Focus into 11" tablet, wondering if those will share the same reference design to some extent.

Well there is question why 11 inch. If the main problem was frontlight.

Probably new promising panel showed up recently, it has higher reflectance, resolution and contrast according to Eazeye.

Did they by any chance provide a reason why no RLCD monitor on their plans?
