E Ink is getting a big color upgrade next year – so will Amazon finally jump onboard?
They look very washed out and unsaturated – and that's because of limitations in the screen tech that's been used so far. Most of the current color ereaders use E Ink Kaleido screens, which have the capability of displaying 4,096 colors at no more than 100ppi resolution. And the reason colors look faded is because of filters layered on the screen.
The E Ink Gallery 3 color screen tech can display over 50,000 colors – putting the Kaleido displays to shame – and at the usual 300ppi to match the monochrome screen. Importantly, the colors should look nice and bright thanks to a four-particle ink system for each pixel. The cyan, magenta, yellow and white pigments should allow for a much fuller color gamut.
. And, like the Era, it will sport a built-in speaker as well. That's not what's got us excited about trying out the Viva; we're really keen to see how the colors pop on screen.
