Stylish, original, but very expensive.

Dutch businessman Alexander Klöpping released 32" e-ink display that can show the front pages of fresh newspapers daily. The device is called E-Ink.

I'm a news junkie and the power of the front page has always fascinated me. So when I came across article, written by a Google engineer who created an e-ink device that showed him his favorite daily, I envied him. Then I also created this for myself, using ready-made equipment. And now anyone can buy it. It is beautiful.

He released E-Ink in collaboration with the Slovenian company Visionect, which produces monitors with electronic ink for corporate use. The businessman accidentally found out that they are just releasing screens that are comparable in size to an unfolded newspaper page.

The gadget received a screen without backlight and with a low refresh rate, which, according to the developers, is ideal for demonstrating wall art. In addition, thanks to this, it has low power consumption and can work for several weeks or even months.
