Founded in 2008, aragonite is one of the few Chinese e-reader brands that should be mentioned most in terms of popularity and comprehensive strength. The positioning of aragonite is very similar to Sony,The main 10Inch or more large-screen products,Several main products are using high-definition Carta screen,The resolution is far higher than the industry average,The price will not be low,All are above 3000 yuan。 Also known for its good PDF reading, aragonite supports a wide range of text formats and has a larger storage capacity, unlike Sony. In the 2018 Hong Kong Electronics Fair, aragonite performed outstandingly, showing good product innovation.
 
Compared with Sony, aragonite is most criticized for the overweight body of its products. The main BOOX Max Carta and BOOX Max2 both weigh 550 grams, which is also an expensive 13.3-inch large screen product, which is nearly 60% heavier than Sony's DPT-S1, which undoubtedly greatly reduces the portability of these two readers.
 
The heaviness of the fuselage is improved on the BOOX Note. With a weight of 325 grams, the Note is one of the lightest 10.3-inch products. As a flagship reader mainly promoted by aragonite, the BOOX Note has a narrow bezel screen, with a screen-to-body ratio of 74.3%, equipped with Android 6.0 system, and has a storage capacity of 32GB, while in comparison, the 13.3-inch BOOX Max Carta is Android 4.0 system, with a storage capacity of only 16GB, and the price is more expensive than the BOOX Note. This product has a screen resolution of 1872 x 1404pix, although it belongs to the HD category and is better than Sony's DPT-S1, but it is not as good as Max Carta and Max2, which has a screen resolution of 2200*1650pix.
 
BOOX Max2 is more like an improved version of Max Carta, like Note, running memory reaches 2GB, more than most readers, more than double the running memory of BOOX Max Carta, and at the same time there are upgrades in storage space and system, the main highlight is the collaboration with the computer, and the creative addition of the display function, so that the office performance of the reader is greatly enhanced. According to PCmag's review, the Max2 becomes very sluggish when running some note-taking third-party applications (such as Evernote and OneNote), making it difficult for the pen to annotate and record normally.
 
Like the Max Carta, the BOOX Max2 retains the physical buttons, which can bring a more realistic sense of page turning than the average full touch screen, avoiding the need for your finger to slide up too often, and the thumb can complete the page turning without leaving the frame. For those who read PDF files frequently, BOOX Max2's PDF cropping function is also very useful, which can be adapted to the width of the document, and also supports manual trimming, and also provides dual screen display, which is convenient for recording while reading.
 
Aragonite is developed based on the Android system, and compared with the closed reader represented by Kindle, the openness of the Android system allows users to download a variety of third-party reading applications, which breaks the limitations of the platform to a certain extent. Like Sony, none of these flagship products are equipped with reading lights, which is also an unavoidable defect of large-screen products.
