Brand overview
Superseded by the Boox Tab Ultra C Pro
TRANSPARENCY NOTICE:
I have used the Boox Tab Ultra C, but it was a long time ago, and I no longer have the tablet.
Therefore, I have left this device as “unreviewed”. And it is likely to remain that way for the foreseeable future because it is no longer being manufactured and has since been superseded by the Boox Tab Ultra C Pro.
Please be aware that there is higher likelihood that information about this device may be inaccurate because I no longer have a unit to do a hands-on check – I do have systems in place to try to avoid errors and do my best to ensure accuracy, but like most humans, I am not infallible.
