Boox Go 6 Gen II Merges E-Reader Versatility With Note-Taking

The updated Go 6 retains the 300PPI E Ink display of its predecessor but upgrades the internal hardware to 3GB of RAM. The most significant shift is the compatibility with the InkSense Plus stylus, allowing users to sketch or annotate documents directly on the screen. While the stylus costs an additional $45.99, the device offers a unique ecosystem advantage: because it runs Android 11 with access to the Google Play Store, users can install both Kindle and Kobo applications, consolidating multiple platforms into one piece of hardware.

Physically, the device features a 1,500mAh battery and a screen light with adjustable color temperature, matching the core specifications of entry-level competitors. It distinguishes itself with 32GB of onboard storage and a microSD card slot for expansion, a rarity among compact readers. Available in four colors—plum, stone, shell, and custard—the device is set to begin shipping on June 17th. Though the writing experience may not rival premium tablets like the Remarkable Paper Pro, the flexibility of Android-based note-taking apps provides a versatile alternative for those seeking more than just a closed-system reading experience.
