This. I'd buy a reasonably priced 10+ inch E-ink display that I can use as an art display on the wall or a creative dashboard of things I care about. However, anything above the size of a Kindle is too expensive for this purpose. A kindle is rather too small...

I will wait until I can buy one for < EUR 200.

I dont need wifi, "smart", or "cloud" features in it. Just the ability to push images into it statically.



I was planning to do a similar project and I was thinking about the below displays. Leaning towards the 10.3" because of the price and resolution.

Inkplate (https://e-radionica.com/en/inkplate.html) might work for you. It's still something you have to program yourself, but it's fairly streamlined.


Nah ... those are still tiny compared to even a DIN A2 poster.


There is a 9.7" monitor in there. It's not the 10+" that GP asked for, but it is within 5% of that target.


Fair ... I just read your response and assumed it was answering to my complaints :-) He specifically asked for a 10" inch display and your proposal fits there.


This is something I'd love to make, but I fear it would be impossible to make it less than 500 USD, currently. Not including taxes.
