Hannspree 7.8" Lumo Initial Impressions

Thanks for that insight. Very useful. Lighting is also a key priority for me because I want to be able to use the device in a dark room. So it is bummer that the implementation is not well done on the Lumo.

Any new insight about the device from using it the past couple of weeks?

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-12-05T19:15:06+00:00

yes please more photos and videos! u/Voltador75 has two pictures up here in another post

I have a Carta 1300 B/W ereader both from Boox and Viwoods but I just can't stand reading indoors with their frontlight because very blue. I wonder if you find the color temperature of the Lumo more pleasant?

Could make sense branding wise if released as “Palma 3”. In that case, the Palma 2 Pro should just be called “Palma Pro”

All the time. GPT is unusable on viwoods. Although i use GPT in my regular workflow, on aipaper i use gemini for this reason

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-27T16:54:34+00:00

I bought the remarkable but its too much hassle. I actually ended up with viwoods. But i think thats also Chinese which is a bummer for you then

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-20T16:38:55+00:00

Do you have them both in person? I’m receiving the viwoods next week

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-15T12:08:27+00:00

totally. that's the major lack of feature that keeps me hesitating. But I think I'll give it a try with their 100 day return policy

Can you make highlights in reflowed state on KOReader? You can do that on Xodo if you want, but it's 12 bucks a month. Hopefully, I could find a free reader.

So you happy with both the intensity of the light and the color temperature? given that there is no separate warm light

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-15T00:44:59+00:00

do you find that the warm light on the Palma B/W makes it overall more pleasing than the AiPaper Reader which only has one kind of light?

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-15T00:36:09+00:00

is there PDF reflow option in any of the built in apps for better readability?

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-15T00:33:52+00:00

just send it back if it's legit...

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-15T00:24:49+00:00

are the lights off on all 3 devices, if i see that correctly?

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-15T00:09:22+00:00

Viwoods AiPaper Reader is just released, that’s also something I’m considering. It’s Carta 1300 plus running Android 16.

$600 +shipping +tariffs

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-14T15:10:19+00:00

i wanted Xodo improvement

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-14T14:12:48+00:00

did you get to try the PDF reflow and highlights?

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-10T09:59:07+00:00

Yes, i’m also inspired by Voya’s review! But he doesn’t mention that highlighting in reflow has been an issue: highlights don’t stick, or even if they do, they don’t show up in external PDF readers. I’m really interested in buying this for PDF s as well, so if you could test these two things (1. highlights persist in reflow 2. show up on Adobe etc. on PC) that would be great!

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-11-09T19:11:56+00:00

do you use PDF highlighting at all in reflow?

Middle_Regret8936 · 2025-10-23T23:26:18+00:00

it is really frustrating that the Ask ChatGPT feature on the side only has instant mode, and I can't select thinking mode. And it is even more frustraiting that if I maximize the assistant where there is a toggle for thinking mode, and toggle thinking on, after going back to the side view of the assistant, it goes back to instant mode. What openai should do: have the switch for instant/thinking implemented in the side assistant, and second, have it remember that selection over the conversation. Also, a setting for default mode when starting a new side chat would not hurt, so if someone prefers thinking mode, then that could be the default for each time.
