About this deal

The Meebook Pen/Stylus does not use Wacom EMR technology which has become a standard amongst its peers. There is an option on the top menu bar to switch to A2 refresh mode, which improves the performance slightly, but it’s still not something you would choose to use an e-ink screen for. Another thing that I noticed is that if you haven’t used the pen for a while, you have to press one of the buttons on the side to turn it back on before it will work.

On the top right is an option to view all of the open apps and background processes, WIFI connectivity symbol, battery life remaining and a clock. For example, I don’t often visit the gallery or downloads, so I removed them from the home screen and instead have shortcuts to launch the Kindle app and ComiXology.

Files can also be transferred to and from the Meebook using the USB-C cable, or LAN sharing facility. Of course, you can’t see red blue and green on the Meebook’s monochrome screen but you will be able to see it when exported.

Inside of the box, there is a quick start guide, USB-C cable and a sim card tool, that unlocks the SD card. On the top left, there is the home screen button, back button, refresh and front-lit display option to control the luminosity. This app supports a myriad of eBook formats, such as TXT, CHM, FB2, MOBI, HTML, RTF, HTXT, EPUB, PDB, DOC, PRC, PDF, DJVU, ASW, PRC. Many Android apps have animated page turns and all sorts of bells and whistles, they look great on a smartphone or tablet, that can easily handle refreshing, but E INK is a different beast. So, they’re both erasers – it would have been useful to be able to change one of them to the lasso selection tool but if there’s a setting for it, I was unable to find it.

The Meebook is shipped with a Chinese dictionary, so you will need to manually install a dictionary in your own language.

The hardness of the nib tap-tap-tapping on the hard screen also detracts from the overall writing experience. There is no g-sensor for auto-orientation between landscape and portrait, but page orientation can be changed manually. You can adjust the global contrast, to make everything darker or lighter, in terms of the text and menus.

Instead, it uses active capacitive technology, and, for this reason, it requires a AAAA (that’s four A’s) battery for power. If your collection resides on a cloud storage provider, such as Dropbox, Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive, you can easily install those apps and download them to your device.This distance makes it feel as though you are writing about a millimetre above the paper, which can be somewhat offputting. There are speakers, which can be used to listen to audio content, such as audiobooks, podcasts or music. If you are a big comic fan, there is now support for CBR and CBZ, two of the best and well known formats. On the software side of things, the menu system is bright and bubbly, with enough features to appeal towards the average user who wants to read books, but also do some light drawing, or note taking.
