That’s a very niche product
I’d pay a pretty penny for a good e-Ink monitor. I don’t want it curved though. I’d spend $500 or something.
I read a LOT and it would make my life so, so much more enjoyable.
Why no curve? Isn’t this just a baby curve?
Cause if I am reading something that benefits from e ink, I dont need a fuckign curve. And If I wanted to play minecraft, I wouldnt use this.
No John, you will play Minecraft on your curved e-ink display and you will like it.
The good news is they make flat ones. The bad news is the price. https://shop.dasung.com/

E-ink, absolutely, I’d love a monitor where I can read and do work at night without my eyes burning out of my skull from overexposure to the LEDs (I’ve turned down brightness, used FLUX to reduce color temp, etc.; it only works so well).
Curved though? Yeah, sounds about as useless as 3D TVs and previous curved monitors to me lol.
I did. I’ve always wanted an e-ink monitor. Now for the price to come down.
- People with severe eyestrain or eye conditions that benefit from having reflective instead of transmissive display
- A display that needs to be readable outdoors in bright sun
Too many dorks in here asking “why” instead of “why not”!
This is the coolest straight-to-landfill e-waste I’ve seen in a long time.
I want a colored e-ink display that I can read my comic books on. I want it to be vibrant and bright.
Never heard of e-ink screens until now, but don’t vibrant and bright colors kind of defeat the purpose?
ever hear of a kindle before?
Well the point of e-ink is to simulate paper, and just be easier on the eyes. it’s supposed to be looked at with reflected light. So, for example lamp in your room, would reflect off the device like it’s reflecting off paper, making reading easier on the eyes.
So an e-ink comic would look like a piece of comic book paper when you’re holding your next generation kindle or whatever e-reader. Currently for comic books we have to use a ipad or some other tablet which emanates the light.
So you want OLED…
No I don’t want it to be backlit. Only front lit.
Yes please!
I bought used inkbook color version 1 with Kaliedio Plus on eBay for $250 and it is worth every penny. I exclusively read comics and manga on it.
What kind of refresh rate would something like this have?
I saw Linus Tech Tips review an e-ink monitor and it was atrocious
Dansung? Dam, son.
Let’s make something worse, like a computer monitor, and charge 4x the amount for it!
At least it has a little curve to it, I hear that makes it feel better.
What the fuck is a curve good for besides making the box bigger and not sitting flat against a wall.
Curved monitors are as annoying as 3D glasses.
I wish companies would stop trying to force bad design.
But…
#Why?
would e-ink work great for excel sheets or is it just me?
I want eink back screen on my phone.
