digital paper
Screenless reading display
Digital paper is a technology that mimics the experience of writing or reading on physical paper, typically using e-ink displays that reflect light like real paper rather than emitting it like screens.
Digital paper devices prioritize low eye strain and battery efficiency: I take notes on digital paper during long meetings.
The term also refers to virtual notepaper in apps designed for handwriting or annotation.
