The tech sector has in the past few years begun to see a rapid shift in the application of e-ink displays. More interesting is the development of color e-ink panels. BIGME, one of the leading names in the e-ink display market, has launched the BIGME B251 All-in-One (AIO) E-ink PC and monitor via crowdfunding.

Features

The B251 has a 25.3-inch screen based on the E-ink Kaleido 3 display. It has a resolution of 3200 x 1800 pixels and features a cold/warm dual front light. The BIGME B251 is unique as it combines both an AIO PC and an E-ink display. It features dual front light and voice control.

As per performance and features, the B251 AIO PC is powered by an unnamed 12th-generation Intel Core i5 Alder Lake processor with 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. The PC runs on Windows 11 and the display has adjustable image quality. Input ports for the B251 include HDMI, mini HDMI, DP, and USB, while audio is delivered via dual-channel stereo speakers. The E-ink monitor supports Wi-Fi connectivity for screen castings such as Miracast, AirPlay, and Chromecast.

The power supply to the monitor is via a 19V-rated DC jack. The USB ports available on the BIGME B251 are USB-A, USB-B and USB-C. The new monitor is ideal for users who may need to read text or write for long hours. It also offers excellent document editing, stock trading, programming, and browsing experience.

Pricing & Availability

The BIGME B251 is being offered on the Kickstarter campaign for $1,299 but its original price is $1,999. The AIO PC variant of the model starts at $1,899 on Kickstarter but is originally priced at $2,999. The earliest shipments of the model will be done from December 2023. However, the below-par refresh rate regime of the B251 means that it cannot be used as a gaming product.
