Dasung Launches Paperlike 103: Breakthrough 60 Hz E-Ink Display for Enhanced Reading Experience
January 21, 2025In 2023, Dasung made headlines by launching the world's first color e-ink monitor and a portable 12-inch color e-ink touchscreen monitor in the U.S.
Dasung has introduced the Paperlike 103, a portable e-ink display featuring a 10.3-inch screen and a groundbreaking 60 Hz refresh rate.
This refresh rate significantly surpasses the typical range of 10 Hz to 40 Hz found in earlier e-ink monitors, enhancing responsiveness.
However, e-ink displays remain more power-efficient and can retain information without power, which is beneficial for long-term use.
The introduction of the 60 Hz refresh rate could drive wider adoption of e-ink technology, following Dasung's previous innovations in the field.
The Paperlike 103 boasts a resolution of 1,872 x 1,404 pixels with a 4:3 aspect ratio, making it ideal for reading and content consumption.
Despite these advancements, e-ink technology still faces challenges in color accuracy and HDR capabilities compared to LED displays.
To improve user experience during extended use, the monitor includes a dual-tone front light with adjustable brightness and color temperature.
Additionally, it features Auto-Clear technology to minimize ghosting and supports capacitive touch for easier navigation.
E-ink monitors like the Paperlike 103 are known for their low power consumption, glare-free screens, and excellent visibility in outdoor conditions.
Connectivity options include Type-C, ensuring compatibility with various devices and support for both Windows and Linux operating systems.
The device is priced at 1,999 yuan, approximately $273, making it an accessible option for users seeking advanced e-ink technology.
