Welcome back to the channel.

歡迎回到頻道。

Today we are giving a review of the Books Note Air 3C.

今天，我們將對 Books Note Air 3C 進行評測。

There's a lot of products like this hitting the market these days.

現在市場上有很多這樣的產品。

People love the idea of the Kindle, the e-ink, e-reader situation, and with a company like Remarkable who seemed to me the first to hit the market with a version of that that you could actually write on.

人們喜歡 Kindle、電子墨水、電子閱讀器的概念，而像 Remarkable 這樣的公司，在我看來是第一家在市場上推出可以在上面書寫的電子閱讀器的公司。

There's been a lot of companies bouncing around with that.

有很多公司都在琢磨這個問題。

Books to me is one of the leaders and they were kind enough to send me the Note Air 3C.

對我來說，Books 是其中的佼佼者，他們非常友好地給我寄來了 Note Air 3C。

I'd love to review some of their other products as well so let me know in the comments if you'd want me to do that with the Palma or maybe one of their just regular readers.

我還想評測一下他們的其他產品，如果您希望我評測 Palma 或他們的普通讀者，請在評論中告訴我。

This is one specifically for taking notes and what's cool about Books and what sort of sets them apart from someone like Remarkable is they do have the whole Google Play Store.

這是一款專門用於記筆記的軟件，Books 的亮點在於它擁有整個 Google Play 應用商店，這也是它與 Remarkable 等軟件的不同之處。

So if there's any apps you're used to using on your laptop or maybe your iPad but you want to sort of dumb down that experience, you can get them here.

是以，如果你習慣在筆記本電腦或 iPad 上使用任何應用程序，但又想簡化使用體驗，你可以在這裡獲取它們。

So I'm going to walk through, I've had this for a couple weeks now, I'm going to walk through sort of how I've set it up for my use cases and I know there's a lot still that I need to sort of realize and figure out and play around with this thing to get it.

是以，我將介紹一下，我已經用了幾個星期了，我將介紹一下我是如何為我的用例設置它的，我知道還有很多東西需要我去認識、去琢磨、去玩弄它。

But I'm in a good spot now where I feel like I know what I'm doing with it daily.

但我現在的情況很好，我覺得我知道自己每天在做什麼。

I've set it up in a way that I like and I want to talk about the good things and the bad things about it.

我把它設置成了我喜歡的方式，我想談談它的優點和缺點。

I've tried really hard to make it not just a regurgitation of these videos and sharing them but to be more behind the scenes look at what we do here on the channel, what we have coming up in terms of product reviews and even deeper thoughts on these reviews in themselves as well as shout outs to the community, all sorts of fun stuff.

So it looks like we have got a cover for the product.

這樣看來，我們已經為產品找到了封面。

We have the product itself and then what are these?

我們有產品本身，那麼這些又是什麼呢？

Some extra marker tips.

一些額外的標記提示。

So I'm excited.

所以我很興奮。

I do believe this comes with a stylus as well.

我相信它還配有觸控筆。

So let's start with the cover.

讓我們從封面開始。

I know that's not the most fun part.

我知道這不是最有趣的部分。

Now the cool thing about this E Ink device is it's actually colored.

現在，這款 E Ink 設備最酷的地方在於它實際上是彩色的。

So you're going to get an interesting, seems sort of dimmed down color palette but color nonetheless on E Ink and I think that's super exciting.

是以，你會在 E Ink 上看到一個有趣的、似乎有點暗淡的調色板，但還是有顏色的，我認為這超級令人興奮。

So here's the case.

情況是這樣的

It feels very premium.

感覺非常高級，上等。

Feels nice and silicone.

感覺很好，有硅膠質感。

I know there's some interesting reading methods and stuff you can do here and I've heard that the magnets are really strong here too.

我知道這裡有一些有趣的閱讀方法，而且聽說這裡的磁鐵也很強。

That's sort of a good portfolio look that hopefully will keep the thing protected.

這也算是一個不錯的組合外觀，希望能保護好它。

Alright, let's check out the product itself here.

好了，讓我們來看看產品本身吧。

So you have my dirty knife that Ben keeps telling me to clean and I will keep ignoring him.

你拿著我的髒刀子，本一直叫我擦乾淨，我卻一直不理他。

Alright.

好吧。

I've never had a tablet quite like this that you can write on so I'm super intrigued to try out this product.

我從來沒有過這樣的平板電腦，可以在上面寫字，所以我非常想試試這款產品。

Simple packaging.

包裝簡單。

There's books right there.

那裡就有書。

Pull off the cover.

拉開蓋子。

Got some nice foam there to protect the thing and here's the tablet itself.

這裡有一些很好的保麗龍來保護它，這是平板電腦本身。

Very thin.

非常薄。

Very, I wouldn't say light, but I think that's a good thing.

很輕，我不敢說很輕，但我認為這是好事。

I think it's got a good amount of like heft to it so it's not just like flying all over the place.

我認為它有很好的厚重感，所以不會到處亂飛。

So that's my first impression there.

這就是我的第一印象。

We'll put that aside.

我們先不談這個。

In this box we have the stylus itself with a rubber tip.

在這個盒子裡，我們有一支帶橡膠筆尖的觸控筆。

Really quick, I say itself so much in these reviews.

真的很快，我在這些評論中說得太多了。

Here's the tablet itself, the stylus itself, the marker itself, the Apple Watch itself and it really bothers me.

平板電腦本身、觸控筆本身、記號筆本身、Apple Watch 本身都讓我感到困擾。

So I'm either going to have Ben start to edit them out or I just need to get better at it, which is actually what needs to happen.

所以，我要麼讓本開始把它們剪輯掉，要麼我就需要在這方面做得更好，這才是我需要做的。

I won't put that on Ben.

我不會把責任推給本。

Alright, what else do we have here?

好吧，我們這裡還有什麼？

This is a pen tool, I guess to get into extra storage and then the charger itself.

這是一個筆形工具，我猜是用來進入額外的存儲空間，然後是充電器本身。

Alright and then over here is our various pieces of paperwork.

好了，這邊是我們的各種文件。

Let's first look at this writing tool here.

讓我們先來看看這個寫作工具。

It's pretty nice, pretty light, little nib or whatever you tip, whatever you want to call that.

它很漂亮，很輕巧，筆尖很小，不管你怎麼稱呼它。

It does have, I don't think it has batteries, but it's magnetic and will stick to the side of the tablet, which is cool.

它確實有，我不認為它有電池，但它有磁性，可以吸附在平板電腦的側面，很酷。

And then you do have the tip cover, which I think is nice as well.

此外，您還可以使用尖端蓋，我認為這也很不錯。

Nice touch.

這招不錯

Alright, let's get into the actual device here and see what this is all about.

好了，讓我們進入實際設備，看看這到底是怎麼回事。

Can you just slide it out?

你能把它滑出來嗎？

You surely can.

你當然可以。

Wow, that's very interesting.

哇，太有意思了。

Like I said, I've never had anything quite like this, so I'm super excited to see what this is all about.

就像我說的，我從來沒有吃過這樣的東西，所以我非常想知道這到底是怎麼回事。

Alright, so you have on the outside here, along the, you can hold it this way and this will be the bottom, but most of the time we'll probably be using it this way, up and down.

好了，這裡是外側，沿著這裡，你可以這樣拿，這裡是底部，但大多數時候我們可能會這樣用，上下都可以。

But either way, on the side or on the bottom, you have your door here to, I guess, add some extra storage.

但無論如何，無論是在側面還是在底部，你都可以在這裡找到門，我想，可以增加一些額外的儲物空間。

I don't think this has cellular data, but I could be wrong.

我認為它沒有蜂窩數據，但也可能是我錯了。

Ben, check me on that.

本，查查我。

Here is USB-C charging port.

這裡是 USB-C 充電接口。

These look like some microphones and then you do have double speakers here, so I guess a stereo sound.

這些看起來像一些麥克風，然後這裡有雙揚聲器，所以我猜是立體聲。

Around the bottom, nothing.

在底部周圍，什麼也沒有。

Side, nothing.

邊，什麼都沒有。

But this is where the pin actually can connect and, I mean, that's pretty solid on there.

但這是針腳真正可以連接的地方，我的意思是，這上面非常牢固。

That's where that sticks.

這就是堅持的地方。

And then you do have on and off button here and then it looks like another microphone.

這裡有開關按鈕，看起來像是另一個麥克風。

And then around back, no air, 3C, with a little bit of information on charging and then serial number or something.

然後繞到後面，沒有空氣，3C，有一點關於充電的資訊，然後是序列號什麼的。

I'm going to be honest with you, I don't like, I don't love the orange coloring, but I thought this was more orange and it's actually kind of like a pale pinkish red, salmon color.

老實說，我不喜歡橘色，但我以為它更像橘色，實際上它有點像淡粉紅，也就是鮭魚色。

And I actually really like that.

事實上，我真的很喜歡這樣。

I don't know if that shows up well on camera or not, but that's actually more of like a salmon color, which I love way more than the orange that I thought it was.

我不知道相機拍出來的效果好不好，但其實更像是三文魚色，比起我想象中的橙色，我更喜歡這種顏色。

So there's that.

就是這樣。

Let's just see what this thing is like to boot up.

讓我們看看這東西啟動起來是什麼樣的。

It says power off, which is cool.

它說關閉電源，這很酷。

So I'm pushing and holding there.

所以，我一直在那裡推著。

Onyx.

瑪瑙

Nice.

不錯。

So that's a good look.

這樣看起來不錯。

That's in there too.

這也在裡面。

All right, device is starting.

好了，設備啟動。

Yep.

是的。

So we're in the United States.

所以我們在美國。

We go ahead and hit next.

我們繼續，點擊下一步。

User agreement, privacy policy.

用戶協議、隱私政策。

So far, I really love this.

到目前為止，我真的很喜歡這個。

We're not in Beijing.

我們不在北京。

Eastern time.

東部時間

There we go.

好了

Date is not 327.

日期不是 327。

You know what?

你知道嗎？

Actually, I'm going to hit cancel and I'm going to say set time automatically.

實際上，我要點擊取消，然後說自動設置時間。

And I'm hoping when we connect to Wi-Fi, this will all right itself.

我希望等我們連上 Wi-Fi 後，一切都會好起來。

Auto sleep five minutes, auto power on 15 minutes.

自動休眠 5 分鐘，自動開機 15 分鐘。

Let's go ahead and just keep everything standard for now.

讓我們繼續前進，暫時保持一切標準。

So let's do bottom gestures.

那麼，我們來做下手勢吧。

All right.

好的

So we got back on the right side, back home screen in the middle, e-ink, center on the left, volume, back.

右側是返回鍵，中間是主螢幕，電子墨水屏，左側是中心鍵，音量鍵，返回鍵。

Cool.

酷斃了

And then over here is brightness.

這邊是亮度。

I like that.

我喜歡這樣。

Up and down swipe gestures.

上下滑動手勢

Oh, I want to turn these on.

哦，我想把這些打開。

I think those are cool.

我覺得這些很酷。

Setup is now complete.

設置現已完成。

Cool.

酷斃了

All right.

好的

Initializing the library.

初始化圖書館

So I'm going to sort of like stop it here, at least for now.

所以，我想在這裡打住，至少現在是這樣。

I'm going to come back to you guys in a few weeks.

過幾周我再來找你們。

You know what?

你知道嗎？

I'll do one thing.

我會做一件事。

I'll do one thing.

我會做一件事。

I'll start a new note, create a notepad, blank, create.

我會新建一個筆記，創建一個記事本，空白，創建。

And I'll just write.

我就寫。

Do you want it to connect to Wi-Fi to activate AI recognition?

您想讓它連接到 Wi-Fi 來激活人工智能識別功能嗎？

Yeah, I'm going to turn Wi-Fi on.

是的，我要打開無線網絡。

I don't want to miss any of that.

我不想錯過任何精彩瞬間。

All right.

好的

Let's see what it's like to write on this thing.

讓我們看看在這東西上寫字是什麼感覺。

Oh, that's weird, man.

真奇怪

Let me describe this because I've wondered how this feels ever since I've watched a few reviews on these type of things.

讓我來描述一下，因為自從看過一些關於這類東西的評論後，我就一直想知道這是什麼感覺。

So not only does it have a certain sound and grippiness to it, but there's also, wow.

是以，它不僅有一定的音效和抓地力，而且還有，哇。

There's also a certain, like, if I can show you with my hand, when you push, it feels, and I don't know if it's the tip of this or if it's the screen itself, but it feels like you're kind of pushing into, like, this is silly, but it feels like you're kind of pushing into, how's that for a visual effect, huh, Ben?

還有一種感覺，比如，我可以用我的手給你演示一下，當你推的時候，我不知道是這個頂端的問題還是螢幕本身的問題，但感覺就像是你在往裡面推，比如，這很傻，但感覺就像是你在往裡面推，這種視覺效果怎麼樣，嗯，本？

It feels like you're pushing into the page, like it feels like, you know when you have a stack of paper and you're writing on top instead of, like, a piece of paper on a table.

這種感覺就像你把紙推到頁面上，就像你有一疊紙，你在上面寫，而不是在桌子上寫。

That is wild.

太瘋狂了

Okay.

好的

Give me a couple weeks.

給我幾周時間

I'm going to just use this thing nonstop and I'll come back to you guys with my experience.

我會一直使用它，然後再向你們彙報我的使用心得。

Super excited to try this out.

非常想試試這個。

Thanks to Books for sending me this.

感謝 Books 寄給我這個。

This thing is cool.

這東西很酷。

First of all, I think something that I didn't realize is I've kept it in the case.

首先，我想我沒有意識到的一點是，我一直把它放在箱子裡。

I think this is a nice look.

我覺得這個造型不錯。

It's a nice feel.

感覺不錯。

It's definitely kind of hefty.

這絕對是個大數目。

And I think when I first opened the tablet itself, I thought it had a little bit of heft, but then I used it in the case for, like, a few days and then actually took it out of the case and I was like, oh, whoa, the case actually adds quite a bit of heft to this thing.

我想，當我第一次打開平板電腦時，我覺得它有點笨重，但後來我把它放在保護套裡用了幾天，再把它從保護套裡拿出來時，我就覺得，哦，哇哦，這個保護套其實給它增加了不少重量。

But it's not unmanageable.

但這並非不可收拾。

Like, this is nice.

比如，這個不錯。

And in fact, I kind of like the heft.

事實上，我還挺喜歡這種厚重感。

I think it could be a bit lighter, but I know they just released their Go series or something, which is more of a competitor to the Remarkable 2, for instance, and it's lighter and thinner and all that good stuff.

我覺得它還可以再輕一些，但我知道他們剛剛發佈了 Go 系列之類的產品，它更像是 Remarkable 2 的競爭對手，更輕、更薄等等，都是好東西。

But I really wanted to test out color because this tablet does have color, whereas, as you can see here, a nice color display, whereas that new device is black and white only.

但我真的很想測試一下顏色，因為這款平板電腦確實有顏色，而正如你在這裡所看到的，它有漂亮的彩色顯示屏，而那款新設備只有黑白兩色。

And I have some thoughts about color with e-ink, but here's the device.

關於電子墨水的色彩，我有一些想法，但這就是設備。

I've been using it, like I said, for a while.

就像我說的，我已經用了一段時間了。

I love the materials.

我喜歡這些材料。

And I think I mentioned earlier, I love this salmon color, which I thought was going to be bright orange.

我想我之前說過，我喜歡這種三文魚色，我以為會是亮橙色。

I definitely like the salmon better.

我肯定更喜歡三文魚。

It's pretty thin.

很薄。

You've got dual speakers here.

這裡有兩個揚聲器。

You've got a microphone and a slot here if you want to add extra storage.

如果您想增加額外的存儲空間，這裡還有一個麥克風和一個插槽。

The pen kind of does this weird thing where there's like three different places it can snap on.

這支筆有點奇怪，好像有三個不同的地方可以扣上。

I don't know why, but that's nice.

我不知道為什麼，但這樣很好。

I think without the case, it's a little scary being on there.

我想，如果沒有箱子，站在那裡會有點嚇人。

You might lose it.

你可能會失去它。

But the case kind of adds a little buffer to it, so it's not as hard to knock off even without.

不過，外殼給它增加了一點緩衝，所以即使沒有外殼，也不難敲掉。

See how that works.

看看效果如何。

And then this helps a lot, too.

這個也很有幫助。

So I do like that.

所以我很喜歡。

I think something with the newer tablets they've done with this is make the whole thing removable because that's kind of annoying.

我覺得他們在新款平板電腦上做了一件事，就是讓整個平板電腦都可以移動，因為這有點惱人。

But you can lock that back there, which is super nice.

但你可以把它鎖在後面，這一點非常好。

So I like that.

所以我喜歡這樣。

So if you open it up here, this is completely off.

所以，如果你打開這裡，這裡是完全關閉的。

It has standby and then off time, which playing with those settings is going to help this thing last longer.

它有待機時間和關機時間，使用這些設置可以延長它的使用壽命。

If you put it into off mode more often and let it stay in standby mode for less time, it will save more battery.

如果多將其置於關機模式，減少待機時間，就能節省更多電池。

Because it is e-ink, it sticks on this image and will stay here.

因為它是電子墨水，所以會粘在這個影像上，並留在這裡。

I think indefinitely until the end of time, maybe.

我想也許是無限期的，直到時間的盡頭。

So you can pick this.

所以你可以選這個。

You can pick your standby image or platform layout, whatever.

您可以選擇備用影像或平臺佈局等。

This is what I currently have.

這是我目前擁有的。

I've played around with some photos and stuff, but ultimately I thought this was nice.

我在一些照片和其他東西上做了手腳，但最終還是覺得這個不錯。

So when you first boot it up out of off mode, it does take some time to boot up because it actually is off.

是以，當你第一次從關閉模式啟動它時，確實需要一些時間來啟動，因為它實際上是關閉的。

So you're starting it back up.

所以你又開始了。

When it's standby mode, you can just tap it and it's right back to where you left off.

當它處於待機模式時，你只需輕點它，它就會回到你離開時的位置。

But we're going to go ahead and jump in.

但我們還是要繼續跳下去。

I'm going to go ahead and move, just for aesthetic purposes, move that off.

為了美觀起見，我要把它移走。

And I have found the different ways you can use the stand.

我還發現了使用支架的不同方法。

I think a really cool way you can use it is this way here.

我覺得這種使用方式很酷。

So let me show you while this thing's still booting up a little bit.

讓我在這東西還在啟動的時候給你演示一下。

So this is an interesting look and it's on their website and stuff.
