According to Boox, the company is offering up to 15% off select e-readers and tablets for the back-to-school season through direct savings and bundled free gifts available on its official site and Amazon storefront. Shoppers can access these temporary price reductions until August 23, though discounts on Amazon require a Prime membership for certain devices.

The smartphone-sized device features a 6-inch glare-free screen, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of SSD storage, and support for the Boox InkSense Plus stylus. Buyers purchasing directly also receive a free protective cover.

Note Max Discounts and Hardware Specifications
The 13-inch Note Max bundle is available for $720, reduced from its regular price of $840, providing a $120 total savings according to Boox listings. This package includes the large-format tablet, a tablet cover, a keyboard cover, and replacement stylus tips. Alternatively, the standard Note Max bundle costs $630—saving shoppers $60—and includes the device, a tablet cover, and stylus tips.
Weighing in at a slim 4.6mm thickness, the Note Max includes 6GB of RAM, 128GB of SSD storage, and AI-assisted editing tools for organizing notes and outlines. Its monochrome, paper-like display is designed to reduce eye strain during extended study sessions, and all hardware runs on the Android operating system.
Comparing Boox Sales to Amazon Kindle Alternatives
For readers weighing alternative e-reader ecosystems, Amazon prices its standard Kindle devices without seasonal discounts. The 16GB Amazon Kindle retails for $110, featuring a 6-inch glare-free display and a complimentary three-month Kindle Unlimited subscription trial. Meanwhile, the larger Amazon Kindle Scribe is discounted by up to 20% with an eligible trade-in. The Scribe carries a base price of $500, features 32GB of storage and a monochrome screen, and includes a Premium pen.
