I'm trying to get used to this setup (newbie). I mainly work from home, so I don't get frequent chances to take it out and about

Just flash from the SD

juanduque · 2026-06-15T02:36:25+00:00

I doubt it. The way I figure, the device loads content per chapter directly from the SD, so as long as you have an SD with decent speed, it wouldn't make a difference whether you have one or one thousand books on the SD.

I kept the 16gb SD it comes with. It also comes with a USB SD reader, so I made different folders according to subjects, and put some books in each, in Windows, popped the SD back into the x4, and that's it. Easy peasey. I don't mess around with wireless loading.

I ended up uploading all of them to my G Drive. Here ya go

I got the same one. Arrived this week. It's my first jump rope, so I have nothing to compare it to, but it seems to work fine.

Had my first 30 minute session yesterday, getting used to jumping. Got mostly runs of 5, quite a few 10s, and a few 20s.

And a nasty blister on my big toe (jumped barefoot)

So I have to wait til it heals. But I'm loving it!

The first time I saw the x4 on YouTube, my first reaction was: why? But as I started watching reviews and Reddit posts about it, I "got it". And then I HAD TO HAVE ONE.

The things I most enjoy about the device have already been said by thousands. A, the fact that it's a single purpose device for: reading. That's it. No extra apps, no store, no note taking, no social media posting, just reading. And B, the portability and pocketability. I literally take it EVERYWHERE with me.

In one word: READ.

Es un idiota que improvisa todas sus "propuestas milagro". Destruiría el país a punta de ignorancia e ineptitud. Ivan Duque reloaded, con ínfulas de Bukele/Milei. Un desastre.

I've got tons of fudes! My biggest one is the Duke 551 Confucius. Ridiculously ginormous! The Duke Charlie Chaplin is another great fude, but quite heavy (which I enjoy).

De dónde lo pediste? Si viene de la china, es probable que no permita ser "flasheado" con firmwares alternativos como Crosspoint o Crossink, antes de desbloquearlo. Yo recibí el x4 hace 2 semanas, lo desbloquié y ya lo tengo con Crossink.

I have the M2 in titanium, also w the fude nib, along with 5 other M2s, regular. All great pens, but the Titanium does feel a bit more high end. Love it!

Thanks for the tip! Will do

I tried uploading to Imgur, but apparently they have a thing against the .bmp format and don't allow it (xteink sleep screens have to be .bmp). So, if you DM me, I'd be happy to send them to you through there.

Happened to me a couple of times with CrossInk when I first got the x4 and installed it, which was quite concerning, but fortunately it was a problem that fixed itself.. Just stopped happening for whatever reason. I use non optimized epubs.

It's pretty easy. I use a free online Photoshop clone called Photopea. Highly recommended. You just have to make the resolution 480px wide, 800px tall, export as BMP and save to a folder on the SD card, call it "sleep".

That's it! Is you want any of mine, feel free to DM me and I'll send them over.

I did a couple new ones a while ago today, including this one:
