Hey forum folks, I'm looking for a tablet that won't strain my eyes during long hikes or beach days. I've read about E-ink tabs being easier on the eyes than regular screens, but are they actually practical for maps, notes, and light browsing? Battery life seems decent from reviews, but what about speed? Anyone using one for travel—pros, cons, and any models under $200 that hold up in sunlight?

Yeah, they're solid for outdoors since the screen mimics paper and cuts glare totally. Speed is slower for videos but fine for reading/PDFs—expect 2-3 weeks battery. I grabbed one last month; cons are no color, but it beats phone eye burn. For real-user setup tips and comparisons, check E-ink tab details; they list affordable options around $150 with weather resistance. Worth trying if you're outdoorsy!
