Hisense A5C vs A5 Pro CC COLOR eInk Smartphone Comparison

Ғылым және технология

The Hisense A5C and Hisense A5 Pro CC are the only two color E INK phones on the market. They came out around a month apart and side from tech specs, what are the main differences? The A5 Pro CC has more features, such as a dedicated speaker on the bottom, two microphones, a fingerprint module on the back and it is running Android 10, whereas the A5C runs Android 9.0

    I am so impressed with the refresh speed, the colours are not the best BUT, 100% better than having just a B&W screen, thanks for the review.

    I got mine yesterday and fell in love with it. It looks nice and clean, display is really surprisingly fast and very pleasant to look at. The colors are there. I looked at the picture of gamut and there is in fact only 6 real colors which could be easily distincted, just six pools of colors around the gamut and that's not good for lower contrast images but hey, I didn't wanted it for viewing photographs. It is grat for reading and I love the scrolling using the touch sensor. Also I got mate protection screen by default and have no issues with reflections. I just love it and hope it will serve me for years and by the time I look forward to see more phones with e-ink.

    @@cafeadicto Oh, hey! Yes, it certainly is! I use it as a normal phone now. For the colors, there are more of them, I am just dumb because I had smooth mode on, on clear mode, which is the slowest, there are plenty of colors. Battery life life is from 4 days of my "heavy" use, like scrolling through facebook or reddit with some backlight on, to little more than a week when I don't use it very often. I read around an hour a day on it so it serves this purpose well. Some downsides are obvious, I don't look at videos for example, Which is actually a good thing because I spent a lot less time on the phone than I used to, same applies to socials. Screen appears laggy, my friend told me that he wouldn't get used to it switching from 120 Hz amoled phone. Also the speaker could be little bit better, it's not very good for enjoyable listening to music. The plastic that it is made of is matte and it is starting to show some wear even though, perhaps because, I care about it like for an eye. I didn't manage to buy flip case so I use that pocket type with ribbon and sliding it in and out takes its toll. Also the camera could be better but it is good enough for documentation and occasional use, I can send you a sample if you wish. What works really well is fingerprint sensor, it rarely misses. Buttons are comfy. Headphone jack works as intended. Connectivity works without problems although I keep it on 2G most of the time because I found out that 4G eats battery noticeably faster. Computing power and storage is kind of overkill in my opinion, I never needed more than 3Gb of RAM, all files, apps included, are less than 7Gb and I feel I don't really need so powerful processor for flipping pages :D. From the hardware side it is comparable to phones in the price relation of phones I can get here. All in all it fits my requirements for a readers' phone perfectly and I am satisfied with it.

    ANDROID 10 AND WE STILL HAVING NO SUPPORT FOR EINK ... CMON GOOGLE .. Things we want to see improved on future color eink smartphones! -More color and faster refresh rate if possibile - Reflectivity! We need antiglare display, not glossy!! (Or at least antiglare screen protector that doesnt ruin the quality like that) - Backlight: The front light is amazing, but at least a control to set it to a warmer tone for night!! (Can be just with a software update?) - GOOGLE PLAY! Maybe the most important thing? - Special COLOR MODE: In Windows, if you setup High Contrast mode it is amazing how you can simplify all the UI and buttons. Similar thing for smartphone? (Not only the launcher and system UI, but also on the apps)

    It will be a hard sell, I think. People use smartphone as a media consumption device. Speed and display quality are very important considerations when people buy phones. e-ink screen just cannot be compared to AMOLED display. I think using color e-ink on smart watches may stand a better chance as you won't be using it to watch movies. Longer battery life and always on display are important consideration for smart watches.
