Still on the hunt for a really good video capture / hdmi capture dongle
I think we’re actually intrigued and open to build this!
What helps to know: - is 1080p ok? - what’s the minimum size you’ll be ok with ? - aspect ratio? - any other important details?
most of the time its pretty good!
in dimmer environments, you can boost contrast by boosting the backlight a bit
and we're working on OS level native OCR
in the meantime you could use myscript nebo

but we've got a bunch of things in the pipeline also
for example, one sec like 'app delaying / intentional friction' functionalities built into the OS
not kidding
its hard to get things made at low batch sizes with good economics!
(third party video based reviews coming in the weeks ahead! youtubers hopefully will actually reply to us now after the attention of this launch)
PS this review does a good job of describing the perf / tradeoffs of the G99 https://www.notebookcheck.net/Xiaomi-Redmi-Pad-review-Afford...
we're gadget nerds, its not as bad as you think :)
in fact, no early users have complained about performance at all, either to us or on twitter
we're open to feedback on how to improve the next gen! all we ask is to judge based on actual performance on intended workloads and not specs nor crysis lol
we understand that, and we hope we can bring the price down with scale
for some of the folks who its worth it for, some of the reasons are: - onenote or noteshelf or goodnotes on eink working without lag makes it worth it - obsidian or google docs or your terminal working without latency - you end up reading way more substacks, articles, blogs, things in the browser - dragon ball z on eink is fun :)
its vulnerable for us as a small startup on a shoestring budget to offer this, but it is the right thing to offer
(sorry we will update the page to add details to refund/return!)
2) daylight actually uses microperforations in our LivePaper display, so we're able to use a backlight, which in our opinion is superior in multiple ways
one of which, is what you're describing! our backlight doesnt affect writing feel or distance from pen tip to display!
(also way better contrast with BLU on with backlight)
3) thats awesome! feel free to reach out if you want to collaborate, we want to build the best PDF experiences out there as we're serious about knowledge work
anjan at daylightcomputer.com
we will share more details about our pdf reader later this summer when we do an official software launch!
I like gadgets and sunsets
