X3 Arrived from April 4 Easter sale

X3 Arrived from April 4 Easter sale

My X3 arrived unscathed. I haven't had any time to use it yet but it really does feel great in the hand.

I did upload crosspoint and will probably use the small font for a while, which is shown, and see if I have to jump it up to medium. It really doesn't seem as small as it looks while reading.

Ignore the margins on the sleep screen photo as it's a direct copy from my x4 folder which is cropped to that size screen so by default there is some white margin showing on the x3 until I resize them.

The magnetic case that it comes with really makes it feel safe to slip in a pocket but is definitely a cheap feeling product. It gets the job done though and actually feels good in the hand with the top flap folded backwards while using and handling. All of the buttons are accessible that way as well.

I'll probably make some kind folding leather slip for it instead though as that's more of my thing.

I don't read a lot, but I'm trying to get into it more rather than doom scrolling on my phone in downtime. I figured a chapter or two here or there really adds up.

These devices are really impressive to throw in a front pocket or a small bag and I really believe that Xteink is filling a gap that is missing for people. I absolutely love the basic e-reader set up and don't think that it needs to be complicated with fancy sync apps and mini games, or calendars with notepads. We all already have phones that are more than capable of habit tracking.

If the company reads any of these posts then please know that I appreciate the simplicity of what these little devices are and the mobility that they provide. Please keep them simple in the future or at least always offer a simple and affordable version of these products. Try to source reliable parts, I know there have been screen problems and sunlight fade. People will pay a little more for a product that will last years.

Anyway, I'm very happy with these things.
