Boox is set to unveil its new Picco e-reader in November, following a teaser in July. The device is expected to be a competitor in the e-reader market, particularly in the niche for readers who prefer physical page-turn buttons.

Unlike the Xteink X4 e-reader, which features magnets on the back for attaching to a phone, the Picco will not have this feature. Instead, it will offer physical page-turn buttons that can be customized with different actions for short and long presses.

The launch of the Picco is anticipated to provide more details about the device, which was initially teased back in July but provided almost no specifics at the time. The unveiling is expected to reveal the full specifications and features of the new e-reader.

The Picco is part of a growing market for e-readers, with various manufacturers introducing new models each year. The device is expected to compete with other popular e-readers in terms of functionality and design.

While the Picco's launch date is confirmed for November, the exact details of the device remain to be seen. The unveiling is expected to provide a clearer picture of what the new e-reader has to offer to potential buyers.
