1. About ONYX

BOOX is presented by Onyx International Inc., which has a group

of professionals who are dedicated themselves to developing

state-of-the-art reading devices.

The beauty of the BOOX is embodied in both its simplicity and its

power. As we are going to show you, BOOX is an open and flexible

platform for both consumers and content providers.

BOOX is powered by a 16-level grayscale e-ink screen that looks

and feels like paper. Passive lighting and diffusing surface relaxes

your eyes and reduces eye strain. By the hand-writing system, you

can take notes while reading or draw up ideas that occur to you.

BOOX takes full advantage of new-generation e-ink screens:

extremely low power consumption, no glare. Each full charge can

sustain 7-10 days' reading(8000 pageturns). By reducing paper

consumption while providing a realistic paper-like reading

experience, e-ink eReaders helps to protect the environment
