The screen acts like apaper page made of tiny ink particles which can migrate and modify the layoutof your screen in a second. An E Ink® display achieves ultra-low powerconsumption in a thin, light form. This display technology can maintain animage without any power consumption. Once the image is written, it willremain indefinitely without consuming any additional power. The E Ink®display technology is thus energy efficient and drastically reduces powerconsumption. Due to its innovative technology, when the screen switches froman image to another one, the screen goes through a clearing process whichcauses a black to white transition.Note: Image can remain on screen even with an empty battery.
