“Xteink launched the Xteink X4 Pro, an upgraded version of its existing X4 that adds a touchscreen, a home button, and an updated design”
they didn’t mention the backlight until further down the article. figured that would be worth a mention like right away since the older models didn’t have one.
Yeah, it's weird they didn't mention that. I have the original X4 with no backlight, and I don't need one. But I know it's a huge thing for a lot of people.
definitely why i have been waiting for in a micro reader! i think im finally ready to get one for commuting.
I never thought I would enjoy reading micro ereaders, but I read more on this thing than I do on my others. I love it!
