Bigme has launched a monochrome version of its 6 inch B6 e reader alongside a budget friendly color model. The new Black and White edition offers a flush screen design with adjustable front light temperatures at a lower price point than the original color version. Readers can find the standard monochrome model starting at 179 dollars in global markets.
The new Bigme B6 Black and White comes equipped with a 6 inch E Ink screen boasting a density of 300 ppi. To keep the design sleek, the anti glare display sits completely flush with the surrounding frame. Under the hood, an unnamed 8 core MediaTek processor powers the device, supported by 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. If you need more space, the expansion slot supports microSD cards up to 1TB. A 2100 mAh battery keeps the lights on, while Android 14 runs the software. Connectivity features include Wi Fi and Bluetooth, alongside a built in speaker and microphone.
Chinese buyers can grab this monochrome version for 899 yuan, which converts to roughly 133 dollars. While the hardware only comes in a white finish, the magnetic leather cases are available in several distinct colors. The global price starts at 179 dollars before taxes.
For those who prefer a color display, a secret update just appeared on Amazon. Bigme quietly released a lighter configuration of the B6 Color featuring 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. This budget color variant sells for 166 dollars on the retail site. This is a cheaper entry point compared to the existing 4GB RAM model, which typically costs 194 dollars in the US market.
