E Ink devices have long served as efficient tools for writers, students, and researchers. Products like the reMarkable 2 and Kindle Scribe have attracted large user bases with their paper-like writing experience. However, the hardware limitation of a single screen remains unsolved: reading documents while taking notes simultaneously is impossible, writing annotations requires constant page switching, and frequent app switching easily disrupts focus. The newly launched Inkleaf foldable dual-screen E Ink tablet precisely addresses this pain point — and is currently the only foldable E Ink device on the market.
Dual 10.3-Inch Carta E Ink Screens: Read and Write Side by Side
When unfolded, the Inkleaf features two complete 10.3-inch Carta E Ink displays, naturally forming a dual-window layout of "left screen for reading, right screen for writing." Whether reviewing PDF documents while writing annotations, reading textbooks while organizing class notes, or reading an e-book while writing a review — there is no need to switch between apps. With the companion stylus, content can be dragged across screens, dramatically improving efficiency for excerpting and cross-referencing materials.
For a long time, students, researchers, and writers could only achieve simultaneous reading and writing through cumbersome setups — pairing a tablet with a paper notebook, or juggling two electronic devices. The Inkleaf accomplishes this workflow in a single device, radically simplifying the learning and creative process.
Slim Foldable Body: Portable Yet Premium
The product features a 180-degree fully open hinge design. When closed, it resembles a hardcover book; when fully unfolded, the two screens lay flat on the same plane.
Thickness and weight: The closed thickness is only 8.4mm, weighing 480g — slimmer and lighter than a typical paperback book. Each individual screen measures just 4.2mm thick, a significant advantage over mainstream single-screen e-readers: the reMarkable 2 is 4.7mm, the Kindle Scribe is 5.4mm, and the Boox Note Air4 C is 5.8mm — none of which support a foldable dual-screen design.
Build quality: The entire device is crafted from cast aluminum, with the hinge precision-milled. The side features physical page-turn buttons positioned to fit the thumb's natural grip, providing tactile feedback for effortless one-handed page turning.
The compact hardcover-book-sized body serves not only for daily reading and writing but also doubles as a portable secondary screen on the go — ideal for cafes, hotels, and commutes.
Android Open System: No Subscriptions, AI-Powered Note Search
The Inkleaf runs on Android, offering open compatibility with mainstream e-book and document formats. PDF, EPUB, MOBI, and TXT files can all be imported directly. Accessing your own content requires no subscription fees, with no mandatory membership threshold. The device features a built-in AI handwriting search function that recognizes all handwritten note content — simply enter a keyword to quickly search across all notes, enabling instant location of target passages even among vast amounts of handwritten documents.
Pricing and Availability
The foldable dual-screen e-reader is priced at approximately $450, with the first batch of devices scheduled for delivery to initial pre-order customers in August 2026. The device comes with a pressure-sensitive stylus and USB-C cable, ready for full reading and writing functionality out of the box, with no mandatory paid accessory bundles.
For those who need to read and take notes simultaneously for extended periods, the Inkleaf breaks free from the design constraints of traditional single-screen e-readers, optimizing hardware form factor based on actual workflows — making it a truly innovative product that redefines digital reading and writing devices.
