- **Pricing:** Paid. Lumi (front-light) version listed at $429.99 on the official BOOX store (launched around $449.99); the light-free Go 10.3 (Gen II) is $399.99. Stylus included; cases and keyboard folios sold separately or in bundles.

## Features

- **Dual-tone front light** — White and amber LEDs blend from cool daylight to a soft warm glow, letting you read at night without a harsh blue-light wash. This is the headline addition over the light-free Gen II model.
- **300 ppi E Ink display** — A 10.3-inch, 2480x1860 monochrome ePaper panel under a flat cover-lens delivers text close to laser-print sharpness with deep black ink.
- **Full Android 15 with Google Play** — Runs a near-complete Android tablet OS with Play Store access, so you install the same reading, note and productivity apps you already use rather than converting files.
- **InkSense Plus stylus** — Bundled pen with 4,096 pressure levels and USB-C recharging for handwriting, annotation and sketching, with handwriting-to-text conversion built in.
- **Paper-thin, light body** — 4.8mm thick and about 364g, among the lightest and slimmest 10-inch E Ink tablets, easy to slip into a bag or hold one-handed.
- **Broad file support** — Reads 26 formats including PDF, EPUB, AZW3, MOBI, DOC, DOCX, CBR, CBZ plus image and audio files.
- **Weeks of standby battery** — A 3,700mAh battery delivers days to weeks of use depending on light and radio usage, aided by E Ink's low power draw.
