2015. Onyx showed 13-inch HD e-reader

This e-reader boasts a newly developed flexible PVI HD touchscreen with a resolution of 2200 x 1650, accompanied by a stylus that enables users to write, draw, or take notes. Unlike its predecessors, this device will run on Google Android instead of Linux, potentially allowing users to install various apps. However, it remains uncertain whether Onyx will provide an app store or continue using the unofficial version of Google Play found on their other e-readers. While Onyx has announced a planned release in Spring 2016, there is currently no information available regarding pricing or exact availability.

One of the standout features of this device is its use of Android 4.2.2 as the operating system, enabling users to install their own applications.
