At the time, these two e-readers with compact displays were limited to China, but the Pro variant is now making way to global markets under a different name. For seekers worldwide, BOOX recently pulled the wraps off the Go 6 (Gen II), which comes with the same vibrant colors and is a pronounced step up over the previously drab-looking Go 6 (2024).As its name suggests, the second-generation BOOX Go 6 comes with a 6-inch ePaper display (BOOX refrains from making an E-Ink claim here, and the exact make is unclear). Despite its small size, the display supports a high resolution of 1448 x 1072 pixels, ensuring a print-quality 300 dpi output. The monochrome display supports a backlight with adjustable warmth.
