    The Supernote is running a version of Android that let’s you sideload stuff, but I haven’t messed with it too much. There are also boox devices that are Android based and the inkpalm from Xiaomi.

    For the most part though, I think the android versions they use are generally very old.

      Ah that’s a shame, if there’s no guarantee of any kind of ongoing support then it’s just ewaste-in-waiting

        Meh, Supernote could shutdown tomorrow or upgrade to Android 16 and neither would change anything about how I use it. They also made the internals of this generation replaceable.

          That’s good. My concern is generally with security updates but I guess it really depends what you’re using the device for.
