BOOX Note Max 13.3: The E Ink Tablet Built for Professionals

There is a moment every document-heavy professional knows: a 200-page PDF opens on a laptop, and the choice appears. Squint at a full page, or zoom in and scroll forever. The Note Max exists to end that choice. Its 13.3-inch screen shows a complete letter-size page at full readability, on E Ink that is as easy on the eyes at hour eight as it was at hour one.

A full page, finally

The Note Max pairs a 13.3-inch Carta1300 glass screen with a 3200 x 2400 resolution, which works out to 300 ppi. That is the same pixel density as a premium pocket e-reader, spread across a page the size of the documents you actually work with.

In practice, that means contracts, journal articles, drawings, and scores display one-to-one, with footnotes and fine print legible without zooming. The G-sensor rotates between portrait for documents and landscape for side-by-side layouts. And at 4.6 mm thick and roughly 615 grams, it is lighter than most of the paper stacks it replaces.

Markup that feels like pen on paper

The included stylus writes with 4,096 levels of pressure sensitivity, so annotations have the natural weight and taper of real ink. For professionals, this is where the Note Max earns its keep:

• Lawyers can mark up agreements in the margins the way they were trained to, then export the annotated PDF back into the workflow.
• Researchers and academics can annotate papers at full size, with highlights and handwritten notes living directly on the document.
• Architects and engineers can review drawings on a page large enough to respect the drawing, redlining on site instead of back at a desk.

With an 8-core processor, 6GB of RAM, and 128GB of storage, there is room and speed for a working library of thousands of documents.

Add the keyboard case, get a distraction-free workstation

Because the Note Max runs Android 13, it is not limited to reading and inking. Email, cloud storage apps, and document editors all install normally. Pair it with the dedicated keyboard case and it becomes a remarkably focused writing machine: a full-size page of text, no glowing screen, and none of the notification churn of a laptop.

Dual speakers and a built-in microphone round it out for dictation and calls, and the USB-C port handles charging, OTG accessories, and audio.

Where it sits in the lineup

If your work leans toward colour-coded markup or you want an adjustable front light in a lighter body, the 10.3-inch Note Air series is the natural alternative. If you want this same 13.3-inch canvas with a colour screen for design work, look at the Tab X series. And for choosing a gift for the professional in your life, our holiday gift guide puts the whole lineup side by side.

For budget-minded buyers, we periodically stock an open-box Note Max with a free case included. Open-box units carry the full manufacturer warranty but are final sale, so they suit buyers who already know this is the device for them.

Put a real document on it

Specifications only tell half the story; the other half is watching your own worst PDF open at full size. Bring one on a USB drive or in your cloud account to our Oakville showroom and try it on the Note Max in person, or order online with free shipping across Canada and 30-day returns on new devices.
