The main problem Gmini MagicBook A6LHD in an unstable and partly buggy software part. The rest of the iron is normal. And if there is a choice of two readers, read the Gmini MagicBook A6LHD thread and decide. Everything is described and written there.

Corrected everything in Magellan 2, and Darwin has already been released on the latest firmware. Personally, I have not noticed one. There was still no freeze or reboot. There were no mistakes. I used not only the reader, but also an Internet (downloaded books) and indulged with Pocket, and read notes on Evernote. The truth is that you buy a book, you turn it on, you load books there and everything, you can read and there are no problems. And further, users are already engaged in customization. Well, I want them to replace the screensaver for example. Everything suits me by default, that on Darwin, that before that on Magellan 2 (on the latest firmware). Anyway, from 2012 I use Onyxes, the problem was always the same for me, the screen was beating. The books themselves are never buggy. But I did not use early books on Android either. -------------------- Nokia 6600, Nokia N73, Nokia N95 8gb, Nokia N8, Nokia 808, Sony Xperia Z3 compact, Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro, Honor View 10, iPad Air 128gb LTE, Huawei M3 8.4 ", Onyx Boox Darwin 2, Onyx Boox Monte- Cristo 1 & 2, Fiio X5 II, Zidoo X8 & X9s & X10 2.1.22 + rus.

Guru [online] Group: Friendssavagemessiahzine.com Messages 2197 Check in: 07.06.11 Honor View 10 6/128 Reputation: 93 | Lex0871, By the way, yes, I missed this model, apparently recently released! Not a bad competitor. The difference in 2000r. I, too, for Onyx. Firstly, the book itself is more compact, secondly it is really stable and there are no problems with the sensor (this is not a stone in the direction of gmini, I just emphasized that Darwin is fine with that. And thirdly, the cover is stylish and practical with smart function Of the advantages of GMini, probably only the price and headphone jack. Next IMHO. Surely the backlight will not be so uniform. On the reader extra buttons. For example the screen update button. On Darwin, you can assign a left-key hold to this case. And even better, do not bathe at all with this and enable the update every 3 pages. Well, support for Onyxes is better. There is a feedback through the forum. At least with the Mac center it is there, so serious problems, if any, are all solved in the new firmware. But I don’t know how important it is now, since the latest firmware is excellent. Not ready to answer whether it is worth overpaying 2000r for Darwin. If the screen in real life is not worse and there are no critical bugs, then it may not be worth it. But for me, the dimensions, support, interface, moon light and cool case are worth it. Yes, if the dollar were now smaller, the book would have cost 6990, but what to do ... Well, the last, after all, weight is critical. I had a captain Nemo. The book is cool, but heavy infection ... This GMini is about 100g heavier. About. This is significant. Especially if you hold the book with one hand, for example in transport. It is not worth shaking off this parameter, but, in principle, the planets are heavier, but people use them and nothing! :) But for me personally, the compactness and lightness of the last 6 "onyx is a fat plus. Now a review of this GMini read. Not bad. The main mistake - autonomous work. Despite the good battery optimization is not. Yes, on paper 2600 with 1700 mAn it is ridiculous to compare, but in reality everything is different. 4-5 days in sleep mode is VERY short. Even not so, it will be correct that the book is discharged coolly in sleep mode. The same Darwin practically does not discharge. Well, roughly, like the iPad. So, not optimized sleep mode, a childhood disease that has already been overcome on smartphones. So the book needs to be turned off. But there is one more thing. And how much charge will be spent on constant on / off? Not a little. That is probably the main problem. And so, as for reading, everything should be the same as Darwin, because you can put the same Orider or Alrider. Therefore, I think that this: 2000r difference, this is a plus GMini. And of course the headphone jack. Autonomy and weight are its disadvantages. Well, to the minuses a bad on / off button needs to be written down. She will have to use often, maybe fall off. I think this: if you are sure that the screen is not broken at the book, then Onyx must be taken. Figs with him, the path is more expensive, but it is a long-playing gadget. And he bought for a longer time than a smartphone. If you read a lot and often, then these 2000 you will not notice at all. But there is still Magellan 2. If I was asked, I would advise Darwin to choose. But if a person would decide to buy GMini, then I would not dissuade. In general, you need to use, read reviews. In theory, except for the battery accumulator, everything should be good and fast, the iron allows. In general, in theory, the speed is not slower than Darwin, it should be. Well, Alrider does all the work. It is advanced in itself, nothing is required of the manufacturer at all. Ahrider allows you to adjust the backlight and fonts. Yes, almost all. Well, something like this! :) Post has been editedxGREGORYx - 26.05.15, 22:57 -------------------- Nokia 6600, Nokia N73, Nokia N95 8gb, Nokia N8, Nokia 808, Sony Xperia Z3 compact, Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro, Honor View 10, iPad Air 128gb LTE, Huawei M3 8.4 ", Onyx Boox Darwin 2, Onyx Boox Monte- Cristo 1 & 2, Fiio X5 II, Zidoo X8 & X9s & X10 2.1.22 + rus.

Tried and the substrate is plastic and protective glass - it didn’t stick, this contrast worsened a lot. I wrote to the fact that, for me, the Onyx book will be unreadable only because of the broken screen. And so, she will justify her money. The e-book is the most fragile gadget and there is a certain risk in buying expensive books. But, like, native covers protect well. But you need to be careful.

Buttons on Onyx darwin how to act? is the default scrolling right and left? And what other functions do they perform? And the same question on the bottom center button. And how are they for convenience? Which reader has a better location and their use? It seems that Gmini has more buttons or are they symmetrical and perform the same thing only from different sides for convenience? Posted on 05/27/2015 09:05: [email protected], 06:42 I wrote to the fact that, for me, the Onyx book will be unreadable only because of the broken screen. So the same minus and Gmini. In this regard, it is better only because it is a bit cheaper? Post has been editedphil84 - 27.05.15, 09:08 |

Guru [online] Group: Friendssavagemessiahzine.com Messages 2197 Check in: 07.06.11 Honor View 10 6/128 Reputation: 93 | phil84, Exactly. It is better because it is cheaper. (It's not so pitiful to break) It's like with clothes, it's better to get dirty sweatpants, than a suit!))) But if you are careful when worn, everything will be fine. Do not drop a book or pinch it in a backpack, for example. The cover is excellent, it protects, but, nevertheless, you need to be careful. More accurate than with a smartphone or tablet! :) The screen is e-ink, thinner than a CD. I call it the eggshell. Everything needs to be done without pressing, with light tapas. But, as I said, the cover protects. And so, without a cover, in general a reader, any, it is better not to take it out of the house! By default, the side buttons are by single-click pressing. The left button is the previous page, the right button is the next page. Buttons single-position with excellent soft stroke. Holding the left button leads to updating the screen (clears artifacts), this is necessary, for example when browsing, shorter than the "life" outside the reader, as in the reader so you can set the auto refresh pages (I recommend 3 pages). Buttons can be reassigned in the settings. Top button on / lock / lock once. If the book is not turned off and kept in sleep mode, then you don’t need this button at all, as the cover can lock / unlock the book (gMini doesn’t have this). The central button is the Back button. Very comfortably. She will constantly return you to the position back. It also turns on / off the backlight (I do not use it, I adjust the backlight with gestures in the OReader.) Such management, in practice, is one of the most convenient. And the central button is a great solution altogether. Buttons I would write Onyx plus. For me personally, the gminib buttons seem less convenient. But there are two-sided side buttons. That is, you can flick through with one hand and forward and back. But I'm not worried about this when I hold the book with one hand and I need to go back to the page - I use tap on the screen or svayp. Tap zones are also configured in the reader. The default settings are more than convenient.

At current prices, this is pretty expensive gadget. As for the buttons, it's a matter of taste and management habits. I do not think that the choice of buttons was decisive and decisive in the matter of choice. Go to the store and hold both readers in your hands, turn them on. The only way to make a choice.

Onyx has their signature Moon Light. In the Russian market, they are one of the first began to use the backlight. In theory, yes, Darwin lighting should be better. But in practice - we must look. Moonlight, moonlight, fairly white and uniform illumination with a cool shade. I did not compare with any gMini, I can not say anything. But in general, of famous people, Sergey Golubitsky uses Onyx and they are very pleased with him.

Impressions are only positive, everything is done qualitatively, starting with the packaging. But on embedded programs have questions. Fbreader- among the pre-installed programs is missing (there is OREADER, a modification of ALReadera), but in the Play Market only the "Update" FBreader is offered. And when updating, I get the message "The package file is signed incorrectly. Delete the previous version of the application and try again." (FBreader in the list of required applications - only here we got complete synchronization of all devices). Tell me what to do, where to attack?

It took me 60% of the charge for the first three days, and this despite the fact that the screen was turned on for only 4 hours. I understand that the battery should still swing, but still somehow inhumane. Internet off, no memory card.

Guru [online] Group: Friendssavagemessiahzine.com Messages 2197 Check in: 07.06.11 Honor View 10 6/128 Reputation: 93 | Shadow, I have 8 days living so far. Now 24%. Started counting from 90%. I can say that in the sacred mode the book does not almost discharge. At least visually. For example, for two days the book is lying, and the discharge is at 1% of everything. The book is very discharging wi-fi. If you just read and the entire load on the battery will only read pages + backlighting, then the book will live for a long time. I do not use a memory card, so I can’t say if it affects the battery or not. Turning on and off, too, the charge eats off. Probably like this: if you read every day, then you should not turn it off. If you read, for example, 2 through 2, then you can. It also depends on the charge controller, maybe it deceives me. When I included the book, she lived for a long time. At least 2 weeks. But usually 3 and even 4, although it may not read so much. I then had a mode, after an hour of inactivity - auto power off. Yes, I opened the Android settings now, the item is a battery. Standby mode is only 6%. And the screen is 95%. So the device is sleeping really well.
