I’m not a fan of these TVs sold in picture frame surrounds that firms inform you might be good for displaying artwork in your houses. There’s one thing unconvincing about utilizing a powered, backlit display screen for stuff you’re meant to stare at for fairly some time. Can you actually recognize Turner’s Norham Fort Dawn if you happen to’re battling eyestrain after 5 minutes or so? Maybe the treatment for my dourness is to be present in PocketBook’s new system, InkPoster. It makes use of a giant, colour e-paper show to do the identical job, giving your eyes a greater likelihood of seeing the comb strokes up shut and private.

There are three show sizes primarily based on two completely different applied sciences, Spectra 6 and Sharp’s IGZO. The previous is discovered within the 13.3-inch mannequin with a 1,200 x 1,600 decision, which packs a 14,000mAh battery pack. There’s a 28.5-inch version with a 2,160 x 3,060 show which makes use of a hybrid of each show applied sciences.

The 2 bigger fashions each pack a 20,000mAh battery, with the identical promise of a 12 months or so of working.
PocketBook hasn’t talked about pricing but for both the {hardware} or how a lot it will price to entry its catalog of art work, to not point out any form of timeframe for when you can dangle this in your wall.
