Me too. For some reason, I have a soft spot for these displays, also eInk.

I've recently bought Hisense hibreak phone just because I am interested in these things.



and… how is it? i’m tempted to get one too but privacy concerns are holding me back. how hard is porting lineageOS to a new device? ha.


I mixed up companies. I bought bigme hibreak. And I had Hisense A5 cc some time ago.

I used both as a cycling computers, without sim and almost without internet.

It is fine, not great yet, but not bad. Just a bit on a slow side. But overall it is a working solution for my goals.

Screen seems to be worse for maps then I remember screen from hisense a5cc phone. Maybe it is just my memory, though.

Same with battery: it.seems.to be a bit worse then in A5 CC.

Overall, I think color eInk technology is not there yet, at least
