Viwoods AI Reader

The Viwoods AI Paper Reader features a traditional black and white e-paper display powered by the latest-generation E INK Carta 1300. The resolution is 824×1648 with 300 PPI. It has a front-lit display for reading at night, and the screen is flush with the bezel and protected by a layer of glass.

Underneath the hood is a 6nm octa-core processor, 4GB of RAM, and 128GB of internal storage. It has a speaker, Bluetooth 5.1, and dual microphones for voice communication apps. It comes bundled with ChatGPT5 / Gemini-2.5-flash / DeepSeek-R1. Flip the screen from portrait to landscape mode via a G-sensor. The Palma Pro introduced a data SIM for apps and reading on the go, and the AI Paper Reader supports data-only SIM cards with 4G speeds and also supports Wi-Fi 2.4G and 5.0G. The dimensions are 159.39×80.27×6.7 mm, and it weighs 138g.

Likely, the major selling point of this device is the inclusion of Google Android 16, making it the first e-reader to use a modern operating system. This will ensure that Google Play apps will continue to work for the next 5-8 years, before the OS is out of date. All apps and browsing functions will work fine due to the Fast/ultra-fast/best display modes/quick refresh technology. The stock reading app supports PDF, EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, and EPUB3.

It is important to note, that this is a dedicated e-reader and does not have note taking functionality.  You can purchase this from the Good e-Reader Store for $399, and it comes in white.
