Q: I heard that Hanwang is going to release a new electric paper book in May, is there any difference between it and Huawei's ink level board?
A: Thank you for your attention. This time, the proposed release is a handwritten electric paper, which is a new category, focusing on handwriting and reading functions. Through the investigation of customer use experience, the company found that the capacitive screen + handwriting, in the mobile phone and pad use smoothly, but on the ink screen, the experience is not very good: first of all, the capacitive pen needs to be charged, and the ink screen saves power, can not be charged for a long time; secondly, the ink screen itself does not emit light, similar to paper, is the principle of reflected light, adding a capacitive screen on the ink screen will affect the clarity of the ink screen; again, the combination of the capacitive screen and the pen will also cause the screen to be mistakenly touched, affecting the use experience. Based on the above considerations, we have done some addition and subtraction on the new product, such as removing the capacitive screen and light guide plate, making the electric paper thinner and clearer, and interacting through Hanwang's self-developed wireless passive electromagnetic pen and physical buttons, handwriting is smoother, and the page turning speed is faster. Increase battery capacity to keep the product on standby or for longer. The note-taking software is also more optimized. In short, unlike tablets, it is a professional handwritten note-taking and reading device. Stay tuned and thanks again.
