I'd love to win this and I have an eink yt channel so I'll do a review. I recently bought the tcl nxtpaper 40 and while it does reduce eye strain its still an lcd with filters and matte screen. Is yours RLCD?

    I really hope it doesn't use temporal dithering or FRC. I think everyone here would prefer true 6 bit over 6+2frc. Can you verify if this tablet uses FRC and dithering ?

    I wish it was 120hz or at least 90hz refresh rate

    orangepeel Thanks for the great question! And I'm sorry to hear about your nausea. We have a setting in the tablet that pushes it to work at 60-120 fps. So no effort required.

        vegeta97 Hi, thanks for your question! The Daylight Tablet uses a special kind of ePaper, with some proprietary IP that makes it - in our humble opinion - pretty darn special. We call it LivePaper. It's similar to the Pebble watch.

        It lets us look like e-ink, while having a fast and smooth frame rate.

        Also, what's your Youtube channel? I'd love to check it out!

          Daylight_Co wow that's awesome! If this thing does not use FRC and is true 8 or true 6 bit color depth and not 6+2 FRC or 8-2frc, and does not use any form of dithering.. I will totally buy one

            I think this is some kind of scam.

            It seems to be just and LCD that is made to be black and white, but I don't see any reason why it would not have temporal dithering or other source of flickering as any other LCD.

            Why they just cannot make the displays they made some 7 years ago - those were perfectly strain free, just copy that techn and most of us would be done. No need for any fance e-ink or reflective LCD's. It's not about blue light at all, it's all about flickering due to various forms of dither and PWM.

              Agree 100%. The fact that a screen has no backlight does not exclude flicker; it is not even a 2 way dependance, like the backlight can be flicker-free, not tens of kilotertz mumbo-jumbo. Instead of going back to a solid-tested route, the producers like to scratch the left side of their head with the right hand, bringing up all kind of marketing gimmicks.

              One other main issues is that the marketers don't even understand the problem (therefore neither the fix) and they just relay on whatever the tech division tells them. They sell something that sounds cool.

                This looks way better than eink display. How many OS update does it get? Are you guys working on a color too?

                Maxx I totally agree with you on this. But maybe this have to do with fining manufacturer that can produce them.

                Do you know what are the technical specs that 7nuesrs old lcd design that make so eye friendly?

                Two things that I really like about eink display is no really bright light shining on your eyes and can view in a bright sunny day outside.

                    Whether or not I win the raffle, I would love to try out one of your tablets using whatever mechanism is available i.e. tester, sale tryout period, etc.

                      magi44ken I don't know for sure, but it seems that the color gimmicks, i.e. Temporal Dithering and of course PWM are the things that irritate the eyes.

                      There seems to be zero effort on producing a flicker free display, but yet there are many who complain about dry eyes. We should get people to realize that it is not a problem of lubrication in the eyes, it is a problem of flickering light. It is also not a blue light problem. While there is some evidence that blue light in large quantities is not good for the eyes long term, it is not the source of acute eye strain. This can be easily tested by anyone, using a total blue blocker glasses or just very dark sunglasses. If it was blue light, then the glasses would solve our problem, but it does not.

                      I'm afraid these companies are just out to prey on people like us, trying to capitalize on the blue light problem.

                      But yeah, I'm open to trying this device, too, but seeing is believing.

                        I would love one. If I won, I'd do an unboxing review on YouTube. It would be awesome to not have blue light in a device. My eyes are sensitive to led lights so it would be great.
