The tablet is finally well up in Europe so let's have a quick first look while I'm working on my full review.

這款平板電腦終於在歐洲上市了，讓我們先睹為快吧，同時我也在準備我的完整評測。

Like and subscribe to not miss that in-depth review.

點贊並訂閱，不錯過深度評論。

Just one thing I want to mention first since there has been a bit of controversy surrounding other e-paper devices lately.

我只想先提一件事，因為最近圍繞其他電子紙設備出現了一些爭議。

This review unit was provided by a company with no strings attached.

該評測設備由一家公司無條件提供。

And they also didn't see and won't see any contents I produce up front for approval.

他們也沒有看到，也不會看到我事先提交的任何審批內容。

Creating my videos without outside interference has always been important to me.

不受外界干擾地創作視頻對我來說一直很重要。

So having editorial independency is at the core of my reviews.

是以，編輯獨立是我評論的核心。

And if I can't rely on that working with the company, I simply won't move forward with such a collaboration.

如果我不能依靠這種方式與公司合作，我就不會繼續這樣的合作。

But instead buy devices myself if I think they are interesting.

但如果我覺得這些設備有趣，就會自己購買。

Okay, so now that this is out of the way, let's go ahead and check out the Hands Note 2.

好了，話不多說，我們來看看 Hands Note 2。

Unboxing this, there's not a whole lot in the eco-friendly box.

開箱一看，環保盒裡的東西並不多。

Just a USB-C cable and the tablet itself.

只需一條 USB-C 連接線和平板電腦本身。

It doesn't come with a stylus but has USI 2.0 support.

它沒有配備手寫筆，但支持 USI 2.0。

Which I'll test in the full review.

我將在完整的評論中進行測試。

With only 4.9mm, the tablet itself is incredibly thin.

平板電腦本身僅有 4.9 毫米，薄得令人難以置信。

Not the thinnest when looking at devices like the Remarkable 2 or Bookscore 10.3, but right now the thinnest color e-paper tablet on the market.

與 Remarkable 2 或 Bookscore 10.3 等設備相比，它不是最薄的，但卻是目前市場上最薄的彩色電子紙平板電腦。

The design reminds me a bit of the Huawei MatePad Paper with the soft touch material on the grip and on the backside.

它的設計讓我想起了華為 MatePad Paper，手柄和背面都採用了柔軟的觸感材料。

Which gives a bit of an analog feel.

這給人一種模擬的感覺。

Thanks to the thin build and also the light weight of just 345g according to my scale, the Hands Note 2 feels very well balanced and is easy to handle.

Hands Note 2 的機身很薄，重量也很輕，根據我的體重秤，僅有 345 克，是以手感非常平衡，易於操作。

The frame on the sides seems to be made of aluminum and it has this matte black finish.

兩側的邊框似乎是鋁製的，表面為黑色啞光處理。

On the top we have the power button, the volume rocker is on the right side, the speaker is on the left and the USB-C port and microphone are on the bottom.

頂部是電源按鈕，右側是音量搖桿，左側是揚聲器，底部是 USB-C 端口和麥克風。

The tablet has a quad-core CPU, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of non-expandable internal storage, of which around 50GB are usable.

這款平板電腦配備四核 CPU、4GB 內存和 64GB 不可擴展內部存儲空間，其中可用空間約為 50GB。

It runs Android 13 with the UI being close to the stock Android experience.

它運行 Android 13 作業系統，用戶界面與 Android 系統的體驗非常接近。

So this is not the same customized experience than on an Engine tablet with Android, but essentially the regular Android experience.

是以，這與使用安卓系統的 Engine 平板電腦上的定製體驗不同，基本上是普通的安卓體驗。

Now let's check out the most important part.

現在，讓我們來看看最重要的部分。

The display.

顯示屏

It's a 10-inch reflective LCD or short R-LCD with 200 ppi and Handstar's proprietary EcoVision technology.

它是一款 10 英寸反射式 LCD 或簡稱 R-LCD，具有 200 ppi 和 Handstar 專有的 EcoVision 技術。

So this is not e-ink, but another reflective e-paper technology that promises three advantages compared to e-ink.

是以，這不是電子墨水，而是另一種反射式電子紙技術，與電子墨水相比，它具有三個優點。

It's flicker-free and has no ghosting, it can show more it's much quicker than e-ink.

它不會閃爍，沒有重影，可以顯示更多內容，比電子墨水快得多。

Same as e-ink, this type of display relies on ambient light.

與電子墨水一樣，這種顯示屏依靠環境光。

The Hands Note 2 doesn't have a front light, but the company already confirmed to me that they will release more devices with front light soon.

Hands Note 2 沒有前置照明燈，但該公司已經向我確認，他們很快就會推出更多帶有前置照明燈的設備。

So this is just the first step in Handspray's e-paper journey.

是以，這只是 Handspray 電子紙之路的第一步。

But back to the Hands Note 2.

但回到 Hands Note 2 上。

I'd say the most important change compared to other R-LCD I've recently used is the front glass finish.

與我最近使用過的其他 R-LCD 相比，我認為最重要的變化是正面玻璃的處理。

Instead of it being glossy like the one on the AIMU S1 for example, the Hands Note 2 has this matte display surface.

Hands Note 2 的顯示屏表面並不像 AIMU S1 那樣光滑，而是採用了磨砂材質。

It's similar to many e-ink displays and reduces glare significantly.

它與許多電子墨水顯示屏類似，能大大減少眩光。

So this is actually usable outdoors without annoying reflections.

是以，在室外使用時不會出現惱人的反光。

Which sounds like a little thing, but that was actually my main complaint with other e-ink displays.

這聽起來是件小事，但實際上這是我對其他電子墨水顯示屏的主要抱怨。

Outdoors is really the natural environment for this tablet.

戶外確實是這款平板電腦的天然環境。

Outdoor viewability of the display is really good and colors appear much more vibrant than with color e-ink.

顯示屏的室外可視性非常好，色彩也比彩色電子墨水鮮豔得多。

And even though the resolution of 200 ppi isn't that much higher than the color resolution of e-ink Elite 3 devices, which is 150 ppi, the screen of the Hands Note 2 is a bit crisper than what I expected.

儘管 200 ppi 的分辨率並不比電子墨水 Elite 3 設備 150 ppi 的色彩分辨率高多少，但 Hands Note 2 的螢幕比我預期的要清晰一些。

But I'll have to test this more in depth for my full review for final judgment.

不過，我還需要對它進行更深入的測試，才能做出最終評判。

So stay tuned for that.

敬請期待。

But right now I'm kind of impressed at how well this works.

但現在，我對這套系統的運行效果印象深刻。

As you can see there's still a viewing angle stability issue that I'll come to in a second.

正如你所看到的，仍然存在視角穩定性的問題，我稍後會提到。

But even with that, just being in the shade outside looking at the display is a surprisingly nice experience.

但即便如此，在室外的陰涼處觀看顯示屏也是一種令人驚喜的體驗。

And in direct on any regular backlit LCD tablet like watching videos, browsing the web and so on.

而在任何普通背光液晶平板電腦上都可以直接觀看視頻、瀏覽網頁等。

So you don't have to compromise as much as on an e-ink display when it comes to the refresh rate, ghosting and color fidelity.

是以，在刷新率、重影和色彩保真度方面，你不必像電子墨水顯示屏那樣妥協。

What also makes the Hands Note 2 better than our LCD tablets I've used in the past is the very low display stack.

Hands Note 2 比我過去使用的液晶平板電腦更好的地方還在於它的顯示屏堆棧非常低。

The contents on the screen are very close to the top glass layer, making it feel much more paper-like than any other recent reflective LCD I've seen.

螢幕上的內容非常接近玻璃表層，與我最近看到的其他反射式 LCD 相比，感覺更像紙張。

So this all sounds pretty great.

所以，這一切聽起來都很不錯。

But as always, where there's light, there's also shadow.

但是，和往常一樣，有光的地方就有陰影。

The reflectance of an R-LCD is typically lower than with e-ink, which means it needs more ambient light and a brighter environment for best readability.

R-LCD 的反射率通常低於電子墨水，這意味著它需要更多的環境光和更亮的環境才能達到最佳可讀性。

As you've seen, this is not an issue outdoors where it looks great.

正如您所看到的，這在室外不是問題，因為室外看起來很不錯。

But indoors, just from my quick test, I'd say you need at least around 500 lux for the display to be reasonably usable.

但在室內，根據我的快速測試，我認為至少需要 500 lux 左右的亮度才能合理地使用顯示屏。

And the brighter the room, the better.

房間越亮越好。

But that doesn't mean that you can't use it in other lighting situations.

但這並不意味著您不能在其他照明情況下使用它。

In this specific setup right here, with 3 LED lights positioned here, here and here, with roughly 200 lux and the tablet sitting flat on the desk like this, it's also usable thanks to the good contrast levels because the black levels are very deep.

在這裡的具體設置中，3 個 LED 燈分別位於這裡、這裡和這裡，照度大約為 200 勒克斯，平板電腦就像這樣平放在桌面上，由於黑階非常深，所以對比度也很高，是以平板電腦也能正常使用。

The screen's background is a bit darker in such a setting though and I'd say it's comparable to e-ink Aledo 3 without using the front light.

不過，在這樣的設置下，螢幕的背景會更暗一些，我認為在不使用前置光源的情況下，它與電子墨水屏的 Aledo 3 不相上下。

But again, I'll do a couple of side-by-side comparisons in my full review soon.

不過，我還是會在不久後的全面評測中進行一些並排比較。

And that brings us to the second downside, which is how R-LCDs reflect light.

這就引出了第二個缺點，即 R-LCD 如何反射光線。

As I said, I can see the screen's contents easily with this setup.

正如我所說，通過這種設置，我可以很容易地看到螢幕上的內容。

But from your perspective, the screen just looks very dark.

但從你的角度看，螢幕看起來非常暗。

That's because it's not just about the reflectance, but also about how light is diffused.

這是因為它不僅與反射率有關，還與光線的漫射方式有關。

Because e-ink diffuses light omnidirectional, it's much less susceptible to different viewing angles than a reflective LCD.

由於電子墨水能全方位散射光線，是以與反射式 LCD 相比，電子墨水不易受不同視角的影響。

Because the reflected light on an R-LCD is more directed and not diffused in every direction.

因為 R-LCD 上的反射光更有方向性，不會向各個方向擴散。

That's the reason the screen looks dark from where you're sitting and looks fine from my perspective in this specific setup.

這就是為什麼從你坐的地方看螢幕很暗，而從我的角度看，在這種特定的設置下，螢幕看起來還不錯。

And that's also why it's important to have a generally bright environment with an R-LCD than just a single pointed light source.

這也是為什麼使用 R-LCD 時要有一個總體明亮的環境，而不僅僅是一個單一的尖頭光源。

So, depending on the ambient light, you might need to adjust the tilt to get optimal results with a reflective LCD.

是以，根據環境光線的不同，您可能需要調整傾斜度，以獲得反射式 LCD 的最佳效果。

And that is really the main disadvantage compared to e-ink.

這確實是與電子墨水相比的主要缺點。

But as I mentioned, Handsfree is actually preparing to launch multiple R-LCD devices with front lights that most likely won't have this specific drawback thanks to the built-in light.

但正如我所提到的，Handsfree 實際上正準備推出多款帶有前置照明燈的 R-LCD 設備，由於內置了照明燈，這些設備很可能不會有這個特定的缺點。

So that will be especially interesting to see.

是以，這將是特別有趣的事情。

As for the Handsnote 2, without a front light it aims to be used mostly outdoors, which the promo material for the device also clearly emphasizes.

至於 Handsnote 2，由於沒有前置照明燈，它的目標主要是在戶外使用，該設備的宣傳材料也明確強調了這一點。

And after my first hands-on with the tablet, I agree that this is where the device really shines.

在我第一次親身體驗這款平板電腦後，我同意這才是這款設備真正的亮點所在。

If you're outdoors, often struggle with the readability of a typical backlit LCD and e-ink is too slow for what you want to do or ghosting is an issue, I'd say even without having gone into too much detail yet, the Handsnote 2 is definitely worth a closer look.

如果你經常在戶外活動，經常為普通背光 LCD 的可讀性而苦惱，而電子墨水對你想要做的事情來說又太慢，或者重影是個問題，那麼即使還沒有過多的細節，我也會說，Handsnote 2 絕對值得你仔細看看。

Before forming a final opinion on indoors use, however, I'll need to run a few more tests because there are a bit more compromises depending on the lighting setup, for example.

不過，在對室內使用形成最終意見之前，我還需要再進行幾次測試，因為燈光設置等因素會帶來更多妥協。

But generally, I'd say the Handsnote 2 is less of an indoors device because of the darker screen and viewing angle dependency in a not so bright environment.

但總的來說，我認為 Handsnote 2 不那麼適合在室內使用，因為它的螢幕較暗，在光線不那麼明亮的環境中視角會受到影響。

I'll take a more in-depth look for my full review in general soon, where I'll also talk about the Android 13 user interface, test the stylus support and check out battery drain, which should be especially interesting.

我很快就會對我的全面評測進行更深入的瞭解，屆時我還會談談 Android 13 的用戶界面，測試手寫筆的支持情況，並檢查電池耗電量，這應該會特別有趣。

I'll also compare it to other devices in different environments, so you get a better sense of what to expect from the eCovision screen.

我還會將它與不同環境下的其他設備進行比較，這樣你就能更好地瞭解 eCovision 螢幕的預期效果。
