Different Screens: Kaleido Plus with On-Cell vs. Kaleido Plus

As mentioned above, both Nova3 Color and Nova Air C use the Kailedo Plus screen, but they get a huge difference.

 

Nova Air C features the Kaleido Plus with On-Cell Touch technology. It laminates the touch layer on the electronic ink film to make the colors better. So it’s better in color contrast and saturation whether the front lights are on or off. When using Nova Air C, you can see richer colors in the books, notes, and webs.

Compared to the latest color E Ink tablet, Nova3 Color shows more washed-out colors. But its Kaleido Plus screen with the highest Paperlike Similarity Index is still better than the color eReaders using Kaleido. It can show 4,096 relaxing and soft colors to make your tasks fun and enjoyable.

Nova3 Color's colors are softer with less saturation and contrast.

System and Software Differences

Nova Air C uses Android 11, the most advanced chip in the BOOX products, the latest BOOX firmware, and a closer-to-paper screen. It offers the most powerful color E Ink experience to date. With Nova Air C, you can open a sizeable colorful ebook in seconds, take notes with 16 vivid colors, and install the apps in need for work, study and leisure.
