Boox Launches Palma 2 Pro and Note Air5 C With Color E Ink and Android 15

Shipping has begun from Hong Kong with U.S. delivery expected mid‑November.

Overview

  • Both devices are available to order now, with units leaving Boox’s Hong Kong warehouse and U.S. warehouse shipments slated for mid‑November.
  • The pocketable Palma 2 Pro adds a 6.13‑inch Kaleido 3 display, a data‑only 5G SIM slot, A‑GPS, Android 15, and support for the InkSense Plus stylus.
  • Palma 2 Pro hardware includes 8 GB of RAM, 128 GB of storage, a 16 MP rear camera, and a 3,950 mAh battery, with a microSD/SIM tray that can enable dual‑SIM behavior at the expense of expandable storage.
  • The 10.3‑inch Note Air5 C runs Android 15, introduces pogo pins for a folio keyboard cover, and ships with an updated Pen3 stylus designed for a more paperlike writing feel.
  • Color E Ink brings a sharpness trade‑off—effective resolution drops in color mode—and the Palma’s cellular connectivity is data‑only, with Google Play access available via Boox’s usual workaround rather than official certification.
