that's right it's your resident Inc boy
other than James the other guy that looks like me to talk about another
e-ink tablet this one's called the big me I want to say the model name but we
are unclear as to what the model aim actually is we'll get into that but the
key feature here that you should be interested in is the color this is an
e-ink Tablet running Android with an a
color eating screen I don't know if I've ever seen a color eating screen in
person so this is going to be experience for me and for you come along oh just
for me what this is this is a weird
stylus okay it's thick it's like thicker
when I did the books I noted that like the apple pencil it was kind of the
perfect size because it feels like pencil size but this one is thicker this
is like a thick pencil and it's got three buttons on it I do not know what
those buttons do but what I do know is
that this stylus has 4096 levels of pressure sensitivity
which seems to be the only number I ever say for styluses is are there other
levels so now I'm curious there's a like a is that a connector on the end there's
a SMART connector there or a pogo pin or whatever you call that it's a mystery
hole okay let's take a look at this tablet big me once again just for me and
in fact that is me right there they drew a picture they missed the mustache and
the glasses and the hair color is off okay so it turns out that an e-ink color
screen just looks like a regular screen
but worse that's a joke we're gonna turn it on
we're gonna look at all that but first I wanna look at the outside so interestingly we have a power button
that also looks like a fingerprint reader confirmation it is a fingerprint
reader and it's on the left side of the tablet the other one that we opened I
was like okay this is taking some real cues from iPads this one's like you know
what we know iPads would have the power button on this side we're not doing that
okay we're different we've got what looked like four microphones on the top
on this side we've got the connector for
the stylus I'm just going to throw that on there right now okay that is scary
look at that I mean it's magnetic and
there's there's magnets over here as well to keep it keep it there but oh my
goodness look at this WOW moving on uh on the bottom we have
okay a USB type-c port and what I'm
guessing is not a SIM card slot like I thought last time
oh it is a SIM card slot on the back
we have oh it's like a frosted glass looking aesthetic plus a camera of some
kind that probably going to be for scanning documents now before we turn it
on there's an accessory box that I already kind of disassembled USB type c
to a no charger though interestingly you
can figure that out on your own apple style it also came with these why are
there two different pins for the SIM card slot you put them on your keychain
you got little holes now also in this
accessory box is this little dookie that I have I have no idea what that is is it
something to do with the stylus I don't think so oh these are
tips for the stylus this is like a
little pincer thing so you can pull the tip off
look at that that's an entirely novel thing to me you know you think you've
seen it all and then you encounter a stylist tip puller thank you big me for
giving me this opportunity to learn something it's very
big of you I thought it was big of me stop documentation oh it calls the
speaker horn I made a mistake
um on the Hello on the bottom or the left side I guess of the tablet we got
two I call them speakers they're not speakers they're actually called horns
magnetic absorption charging port of
electric what that's what they call the magnetic charging connector they call
the stylus tips cartridges and then this
thing is a cartridge clip to read some books baby oh and then
lastly this folio thing um good e-reader oh it's magnetic it
should be magnetic but the magnets are on this this side instead of like an
iPad the magnets are on the back and then the folio attaches to the back
magnetically but there's no magnets on the back I don't know how to give you
the angle but there's two little holes in the folio there it's got kind of like
a silky feel all right let's clear this all this stuff off and I'm gonna turn it
on and find out exactly how much having
a color e-ing screen adds to your experience after this message from our
sponsor thank you dbrand for sponsoring
this video I guess there are a bunch of
weirdos but they do make some pretty cool stuff I know for a fact that their
grip case is called the grip case because it's kind of grippy and like
you'd think they'd come up with something like a little bit more creative but
for example it's impact resistance so you could call it something like
indestructible case or something or like a pun the punchable case or punchable
company the grip case can also be customized with any of dbrand skins
including the new palettes collection they just released
what pallets palettes check out dbrand
at Shortline is.com maybe you click it because it's funny what am I looking at
here is this the home screen this doesn't look like the home screen does
it have gestures what home is this
Android this looks like the app interface of one
of the apps that I used on the other on the books okay I I just need to get my
bearings here I don't even know where I am what is this thing there's a little
oh I need that pen
oh no there's not a home there's a power button on the pen
and do I hold it it's out of battery what is this what's this button this
went to it got rid of the sidebar
this is very confusing because this is a different brand and they're using a
custom Android skin obviously but like
design of the UI looks very very similar to the
books but it seems like the UI is different than the books Jake brought up
that I should explain why the UI is so confusing Android has a design that is
already fairly user friendly so when you reinvent the wheel and try to make it
completely different it better be more user friendly if you're coming up with
something different make it similarly user friendly because this is just
confusing I I don't know where I guess this is the home screen no even clicking
the home button won't take me away from offline books how do I just go back to
the apps I don't know that's the end of my rant about the UI okay that's all I'm
gonna say so we got dark enhancement what whoa
whoa okay let's put that back down a refresh mode Let's go to top fast
refresh mode just so I can use the thing pivot enhancement okay that's a little
bit better wow look at that latency though I feel like that's worse than the
books color brightness give it all the way give me give me all the what that
looks like it got less bright that doesn't seem to do anything adjusting
the color brightness okay time to go over some some specs and stuff that I
didn't quite hit the first time uh this is a 10.3 inch screen and the resolution
I guess of the screen is 1872 by 1404
but that's only in black and white mode in color mode which I'm in right now
it's less it's it's quite a bit less it looked significantly like fuzzier when
I'm up to the refresh rate the other thing I should mention right now is that
there's a front camera as well there's a back camera that we saw and there's a
front camera here that I didn't even see the first time around five megapixel on
the front 8 megapixel on the back which
frankly I feel like you I would want the higher megapixel count on the front
since it's like am I going to be walking around taking photos of other people
with this can I not switch to the front camera okay I'll just take a photo of
you guys ready this is so weird again
all right wow okay so we are in color
mode right now I want to switch to Black and White how do I do that what does
this pause button up here apply split screen oh that's that's not a pause
button that's split screen okay oh it has dual tone as well okay because
people got really upset that I had the
yellow backlight on the whole time last time I'm gonna have the cool backlight
there and the there we got full in half all right is
everyone happy with this are we happy with this color you let me know so now
I'm gonna fly through some of the features of the device I mean just like
just take the point that the UI of this Android implementation is very confusing
okay now take that and then we're going to talk about the more important stuff
are you ready let's go so as far as we can understand this uh tablet uses a uh
processor using eight ARM cortex a53
cores which is kind of an older core you know you don't need a crazy amount of
power for to run applications although I
could I wish this thing had some more of something I don't know if it's processing power before I get any more
Lost In The Weeds I'm gonna open up a book okay in the book reading interface
if you tap in the middle you got your ENC controls at the very least that came
up in the books that nothing came up when I couldn't figure out how to bring
up the actual controls I like the clarity I mean obviously the clarity
will depend I mean it it could be the case that when we were trying trying to
figure out how to like turn off the color like you were saying it could be
the case that the sharpness just kind of increases a little bit when you're not
looking at anything with color in it which might be the case here let's say
if I bring that up again everything's to zero dark enhancement
yeah I could use a little bit more contrast it's there we go I like that a
little bit better than the default no complaints about the actual physical
like look of the text let's go to the notes app I appear it looks like I've
turned on the stylus I think I clicked
the power button and it It beeped red a few times and it's got some pressure
sensitivity I'm not getting any whoa I'm
feeling like resistance on different parts of the
screen like it's smooth and then bump bump bump
bump bump bump I'm feeling bumps on the screen as I drag the stylus across this
is so confusing so we got pen we got range which I guess means
okay range means select I can select
something to delete sure okay we got shapes rectangle oh it
just makes a rectangle and then I can adjust the size am I on the uh fast
refresh rate I am wow I'm on the top fast refresh rate and this is really
choppy there we go we got options to to change the type of of drawing let's go
to the brush and we will draw in red
this is what's so interesting to me about e-ink screens it's like it can't
handle giving me a real-time preview of as I of when I'm dragging the rectangle
to be a different size but when I draw it's like perfectly fine to like give me
the input of the pen on screen as soon as I as soon as I draw it if someone
understands exactly how eating screens work put something in the comments about
why the whole screen has to like struggle when I change the size of a
rectangle why it can just like render
the output of the pen right away does it have
it has palm detection or whatever I'm writing
notes I will say that the the writing
feel it does feel more like writing on
paper than it does that you're writing on an actual eating screen and I feel
like I can kind of put pressure on it that's like one of the issues with
tablets and like using styluses every time I use a stylus with a tablet
depending on the display maybe they're better at this now but you feel as if
you're gonna like break the display when you press on it but with this one I can
actually feel like I can rest my hand on it and I don't feel like I'm gonna like
break something and also when you press on the screen it doesn't give you that
like Distortion around the the tip of the pen then you sometimes see with like
LCD uh displays I guess YouTube is
already on here we're gonna try and run crab rape
okay
I hope I hope the viewers pick up on my frustration
with this because you know watching the video I will say that I'm pleasantly
surprised at how fast the refresh rate is we don't know the actual Hertz number
of this because you know it's been hard enough to find the actual name of the
product but I am sort of impressed with it like you know you can watch
it's enough to kind of get the gist of what's going on in the video uh I will
say the speakers are bad there's a thing for office there's voice controls oh and
I can scroll and there's more stuff going on there's voice translation good
e-reader I guess is there like store for books oh no you can buy actual products
here they have a store app to like buy more products from from all sorts of
they have Amazon Kindle scribe they have a shopping app okay this is a shopping
app for do you see what I mean
logo customization what is that help me
out here it's done loading oh no it just
the loading bar went to the end and then it went back is this just customer case
if you have questions you can contact big me88 on WeChat okay and they have a
telephone number okay make me a logo I'm gonna draw a book
oh this is not I thought this was a place for you to draw but it it it's not
this is oh
this feels like I was having a Trippy
dream and then I became Lucid in the middle of it and I'm trying to like talk
to people in the dream but there's and they're saying things but the things
that they're saying don't make any sense because I'm having a dream so they'd be
like morning good and we're at lunch I was having later to go inside the car
and it's like it could be a sentence but it's nonsensical all right I'm down here
because unboxing this product was was exhausting
uh thank you big me for sending what we
think is we're pretty sure is called the ink no color uh overall the each
individual experience in the in the tablet uh was okay using the notes app
itself once I kind of figured out where everything was that was okay using the
e-reader app was okay somewhat impressed
with the refresh rate speaker suck but
overall my takeaway from this tablet is
that uh the UI is horrible and I could
learn how to use it but it would take a long time uh I would
say don't get this product Because unless you're willing to spend a number
of hours learning how to use it when it's an Android device and it probably
should be more easy to use it's seven hundred dollars so that's too much if
you want to see uh more unboxings of things that make a little bit more sense
on ShortCircuit subscribe hey go watch the books tablet that I unboxed uh
because that one made a little bit more quite a bit more sense
