Aura unveils a £349, 10-inch colour E Ink photo frame
Aura has launched a smaller, lower-priced colour E Ink photo frame, the 10-inch Aura Ink, in the US for $349. Its rechargeable battery lets it hang without a power cable, and its E Ink screen offers an alternative to the company’s brighter LCD frames for people who prefer a photo-like display.
The new model uses E Ink Spectra 6 technology, with three added base colours and a pixel density of 200ppi, compared with 150ppi on the original 13-inch frame. The changes can make images look sharper and improve some colours, but the difference is modest: skin tones may look uneven, some shades can be subdued, and the display reproduces far fewer colours than an LCD. The original 13-inch model remains $499.
In short
- Aura’s new 10-inch colour E Ink frame costs $349 in the US.
- Its 200ppi screen is sharper than the original 13-inch model.
- Colour rendering still has limits, especially for some shades and skin tones.
