It takes up as little space as a flagship Android device, but instead of an OLED panel, Boox\u2019s Go 6 is equipped with an anti-glare HD ePaper display with warm and cool light tuning.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company has priced the small tablet at $199, which is reasonable for a device that likely won\u2019t replace your smartphone any time soon. It\u2019s powered by a humble, but upgraded, 3GB of RAM and Qualcomm 2.0G Octa-core processor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The chipset doesn\u2019t make this e-reader any less capable, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0GQXZGSMY?tag=aromerogoog-20\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Boox\u2019s other tablets<\/a> prove. It runs on Android 11 and has the same Play Store access as most devices. The display and internals let the 1,500mAh battery last for much longer than a device with full color display.<\/p>\n<p>\tAdvertisement &#8211; scroll for more content<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" height=\"512\" width=\"1024\" data-id=\"717936\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Boox-Go-6-Gen-II-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-717936\"  \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" height=\"512\" width=\"1024\" data-id=\"717937\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Boox-Go-6-Gen-II-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-717937\"  \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Boox Go 6 Gen II is purely adorable with what the company says is a design inspired by suitcases, of all things. The front display is surrounded by a white bezel and the back takes on several muted colorways.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The major difference in this update comes from its InkSense Plus stylus support. Boox says the stylus is sold separately for $42, which is a shame considering the focus of this model revolves around the pen. The company has a reputation for <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2026\/03\/17\/boox-launches-go-10-3-gen-ii\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">devices<\/a> with excellent stylus implementation, and the Go 6 Gen II is expected to bring similar paper-like feedback.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Boox Go 6 Gen II goes on sale today for <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.boox.com\/products\/go6gen2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">pre-order<\/a> with shipments expected to being around June 17.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/google.com\/preferences\/source?q=https:\/\/9to5google.com\" aria-label=\"Add 9to5Google as a preferred source on Google\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-dark\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-preferred-source-badge-dark.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Google as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"google-preferred-source-badge-light\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/google-preferred-source-badge-light.png\" alt=\"Add 9to5Google as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"disclaimer-affiliate\">FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links. <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/about\/#affiliate\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">More.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Boox Go 6 Gen II turns one of the best Android e-readers into a pocketable notepad with&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":634189,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[59,86,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-634188","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-gb","tag-technology","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/634188","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=634188"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/634188\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/634189"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=634188"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=634188"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=634188"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
