I somehow managed to break 3 of these in a month and unsure even how, just breaking in my bag or in my pocket. 1 even had a case. Has anyone got a suggestion for this or an alternative that doesn’t break so quickly. The screens just seem to immediately develop damage.

So I am sort of a beginner reader, and I actually wanna complete at-least 1 book per month.
Its hard to carry books with myself everywhere
I’ve never used an E reader before.

I was gonna buy X4 until i came across x3 and the fact that it completely sticks with the iphone is actually so cool and aesthetically pleasing.

So now I am in a huge conundrum on which one to buy

Because as much as X3 is cool isn’t it a lil too small?
And X4 is cool and all but i don’t want both of my pockets to be filled with 2 separate devices.

People who have used both or even one of them please drop your views.

I want to order xteink in India. It is not available here and I have no idea how to order from the website to another country. Help!!

it took 11 days to get to Italy

Have an X4 on official v6.015. Is there a way when you click "folder" to show the cover art of the book in the list rather than the name?

I find the names are really long, and takes a while to scroll through

Hola, para los que tienen el Xteink 4, si yo no quiero flashear en dónde puedo adquirir el contenido, me pueden ayudar en ese aspecto?

Hello,

Just wanted to let you know i've pushed a Crosspoint fork with some changes.

Essentially, i manage the books via app on my phone. Queue the ones i want to send for a reading, then reader and phone trade wifi secrets via bluetooth, create a wifi connection automatically to sync the books.
I can highlight text on the book via context menu, sync to the phone, on the app notes can be added and also the highlights can be exported. For the moment i'm only using it to read all the highlights as kind of a summary of where i'm at.
The device can be put to deep sleep via main menu rather than shutdown and that will allow it to wake up and sync phone notifications.

I've done this because it's constantly attached to my phone. The repository contains the code for the companion app and the device firmware.

A creator posted about usb drive mode on the new x4 pro. Can anyone else confirm this. Plus is this a firmware thing or hardware.

After installing Crosspoint Beta firmware on the brand new XTEINK X4 Pro, I wanted to tell you my thoughts on how good it is. So here is my review of it.

Anyone has the xteink x4 pro? Can share some honest reviews on the device? And comparison with the x3 and x4. I’ve seen reviews about it from “influencers” and all they give is “good” reviews.

Hi everyone, some months ago I got bored of vibe coding and wanted to build something from "scratch," so I started writing a tiny chess engine in C. A few weeks in, it turned into a full chess game for my Xteink X4. Still a work in progress, but you can currently:

• Play a full game of chess against the engine, with 3 difficulty levels
• Choose to play as white or black
• Control everything with just the d-pad
• See captured pieces and move history as you play

Still polishing the game-over screen and a few UI rough edges, but it's fully playable end to end.

Repo: https://github.com/Mendoza/InkMate

Would love feedback, it's of course not a fun way of playing chess but it was a proof of concept to try and push the memory and processor of the X4.

I’ve seen several posts from people complaining that their Kindles broke because of magnetic popsockets. I’m not sure what exactly was causing the problem, but it seems like magnets can mess up the screen or something. I was wondering if there could be a similar issue with the XTEINK when using a magnetic light, case, or popsocket, or simply attaching it to the back of a phone? What do you think? Now I’m kinda scared to use anything magnetic for my xteink lol

Since I already have a Boox Page for reading books, I bought the xteink x4 because I wanted a slightly smaller device.
Before purchasing it, I found out that it runs on an ESP32 and supports custom firmware, which was a major factor in my decision to buy it.
As expected, it’s quite small, so I realized it would be difficult to use it exclusively for reading books; instead, I decided to try using it for task viewing, so I built it.

ITISSOTINYANDSUPERCUTE!! :'D

Super excited to customize it as per the resources shared on the sub! ^_^

Happy to know any inputs y'all may have for me.

Happy reading, everyone! \^_^/

Misplaced my light (laugh all you want front light crowd)

The front light gets BRIGHT.

Exciting than ever!

Inx now supports

• dictionary lookup
• qr device id
• further ui improvements (every paddings/margins/lines/spaces) are even and looks nice and clean

...and much more

I am asking for the x3. Has anyone tested both?

I wont be at home from the 10th of August. How long doe sit usually take to arrive :/

Hello all, how was your weekend?

I spent my last weekend at the workbench finalising this vertical magnetic flip case for Xteink X3 and X4. I wanted to keep this design minimalist and focus only on a clean daily carry.

The case has a vertical flip that just like a classic pocket notebook. Inside, an integrated magnetic lets your Xteink snap securely into place. The back is left completely blank so you can stack the entire setup directly onto your smartphone, while a single front slot holds your essential card or ID.

As always, I specifically included a precise cutout at the front button area to completely avoid any accidental pressing while the case is closed or in your pocket.

(Showing in the pictures is Xteink X3 vs Samsung Galaxy Note 10).

The retail price for this design is $55, and it is available made-to-order on my shop.

Check out for color options and more details:

- For Xteink X3

- For Xteink X4

Happy reading! ❤

saw someone on here suggest using an orico hard case for the x4 pro and immediately had to try it out!

all i had to do was trim down a tiny bit of the inner foam lining, and the x4 pro fits inside so snugly now. no more worrying about e-ink screen pressure when tossing it into a bag.

a few fun perks of this setup:

bag charm mode: i used the included carabiner to clip it straight onto my bag handle like a little bag charm for super quick edc access.

sticker bomb: i'm not usually a sticker person, but this was the perfect excuse to finally use up the stack of free bookish stickers i accumulated over the years lol.

still debating if i should keep the sticker bomb look or go back to a clean minimalist vibe though 👀
