The Onyx BOOX Nova Air C is a tablet with a 7.8 inch E Ink display, support for capacitive touch and pressure-sensitive pen input, and Android 11 software.
While Onyx hasn’t officially introduced the tablet yet, the company has submitted documents to the FCC that include pictures and a user manual with detailed specifications. The only things we don’t know are when the Onyx BOOX Nova Air C will go on sale or how much it will cost.
For the most part, the specs and design look a lot like the original Onyx BOOX Nova Air that launched last year, and which currently sells for $350. The key differences are that the new model will come with newer software and a color ePaper display rather than one that’s limited to 16 shades of grey.
Keep in mind that color E Ink displays tend to have a much more limited color palette than LCD or OLED screens, maxing out at 4096 colors. Colors tend to look less vibrant. And because of the way E Ink implements color, the pixel density will appear much lower when viewing color content than black and white materials.
That said, the addition of a color screen could make the tablet more useful for viewing digital textbooks, magazines, comics, or websites and the user manual also shows how you can take advantage of color when drawing pictures or highlighting and annotating documents. The color display will also most likely drive up the price of the BOOX Nova Air C.
Specs for the device include:
| Onyx BOOX Nova Air C | |
| Display | 7.8 inches 1404 x 1872 pixels Color E Ink Front light Capacitive touch Digital Pen |
| Processor | 8-cores @ 2 GHz |
| RAM | 3GB LPDDR4X |
| Storage | 32GB |
| Battery | 2,000 mAh |
| Wireless | WiFi (dual-band) Bluetooth 5.0 |
| Ports | USB Type-C OTG |
| Audio | Speaker Mic |
| Software | Android 11 |
| Dimensions | 194 x 136.5 x 6.3mm |
| Weight | 245 grams |
The tablet comes with a customized version of Android 11, but it allows installation of third-party Android apps and there’s even an option to enable the Google Play Store built right into the default software (but it’s not enabled by default).
Users can also set a per-app screen refresh rate for appts that benefit from higher refresh rates.

Everyone in AR wants to buy some Micro LED tech.
Google is adding more fuel to the AR fire burning inside the company. The Information reports Google has struck a deal to buy Raxium, a "five-year-old startup that develops tiny light-emitting diodes for displays used in augmented and mixed reality devices."
Raxium hasn't released a commercial product, but its work revolves around Micro LEDs, which can make the kind of tiny displays AR devices need. Today, pretty much everyone buys their OLED display technology from Samsung, but Micro LEDs are expected to be the next big thing, and there's no clear winner in that market yet. Apple has been investing in the technology for some time and bought a Micro LED startup in 2014, while Meta is partnering with a company called Plessey for Micro LED tech. The juggernaut Samsung is also interested in the market and is already selling Micro LED TVs.
Google's latest wave of AR development involves job listings for an "Augmented Reality OS" that promises to reach "billions" of people and a "Project Iris" AR headset. The hardware division also bought a company called "North," which made AR glasses that actually looked normal. That "Project Iris" headset is supposedly due out in 2024.

BA.2 is now accounting for about 75% of SARS-CoV-2 sequences worldwide.

After weeks of decline, the global tally of COVID-19 cases is now ticking back up. This uptick is raising concerns that we could see yet another surge amid relaxed health measures and the rise of the omicron subvariant BA.2, the most highly transmissible version of the virus identified to date.
According to the latest COVID-19 situation report by the World Health Organization, the global tally of new weekly cases increased 8 percent for the week ending on March 13, totaling over 11 million cases. Cases are increasing in the Western Pacific, European, and African regions. Korea, Vietnam, Germany, France, and the Netherlands reported the highest numbers of new cases.
"These increases are occurring despite reductions in testing in some countries, which means the cases we are seeing are just the tip of the iceberg," director-general of the World Health Organization, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said in a press briefing Wednesday.
