Onyx has announced the release of a new software update for their lineup of Boox ereaders that run Android 6.0.
So far the initial release is only available for the Note Pro and Nova Pro models, but other Boox models should be getting the update soon too, probably this week.
The new update version is 2.2.1.
This update brings a lot of changes, although Onyx notes that the Android 9.0 update and split screen feature released with the Max3 and Note2 won’t be available just yet.
This goes to show that the Android 9 update really doesn’t mean much of anything at all from a user perspective since they brought most of the new features and UI updates to the old Android 6 software as well.
They’re already working on a 2.2.2 update with even more new features.
To download the update, you can go to the settings section on your device and download the update from there. Onyx also has the update files available to download from the support section of their website.
Here’s the changelog for the 2.2.1 update:
