This is what they announced in their We-Chat Account ( link ) on Dec 1. Apparently some historical event.

They also posted this picture and hinting to December 15 - 6pm

So the question is, are they posting about some product enhancement (e.g. new frontlight tech), or even some entireley new product. It remains to be seen. The We-Chat users are wildly speculating about it.

As Dasung being the industry leader in eink monitors, this will be interesting to watch regardless. So stay tuned Dasung fanboys!

So far they posted a picture of a smart watch screen. Not sure what do so with this hint.

Ok update: Dasung just said there will be news on 25th of December at 3pm (presumably Chinese time)

Although I think it’s going to be something different, I hope so much for a bigger screen (maybe 20").

They really make a big mistery around it, but why would they post a little eink screen? Are they releasing an eink watch?

We stay tuned…

Still hoping this is a trap and they are going to release something huge :see_no_evil:

Hopefully it’s a trap. A bigger monitor would be so dope.

Edit: Could also be a color eink tablet which you can use as an external monitor

Name: Dasung Paperlike 253

Size: 25.3"

Resolution: 3200x1800

Greyscale, Vesa Mount.

No exact pricing yet, but it it’s “1xxx9”, so it could be anything from 10009¥ to 19999¥, so about 1500$ and 3000$ or 1250€ to 2500€ respectively."

As soon as there is a final pricetag, I have to talk to my boss :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: I hope the first reviews will show similar results as for the 13.3 inch.

#13

Does your company pay custom monitors for their employees ?

#14

As I am the guy who orders IT stuff, it shouldn’t be a big deal :joy:
But even for other people in the company it should be possible if one has some good reasons (I do get problems when looking into a screen for too long).

Nice, Dasung made it to german media:

#16

That’s amazing, since it’s indirectly linking to our forum. Btw golem is a big deal in Germany (next to heise).

#17

Finally, an e-paper monitor of decent size! And the resolution is impressive too. Just lower the price a bit and make it full color and I’m sold. I’d buy that for $1000. I know some people would pay more for it, but I’m not that rich, lol… I paid $200 for my last monitor, so $1000 is already a 400% step up :joy:
