Speaking of recharging, the book reader has a 3,000mAh battery that promises a long life thanks to the e-ink screen. Storage is 64GB while RAM is 2GB paired with a Qualcomm quad-core processor. The system is based on Android 11. There is only one front camera for face unlock.
Price and availability
HiSense Touch Lite is currently available on AliExpress for US$299 in direct conversion via the official store. It is worth mentioning that the device is only available directly in China, so you have to import it, which can create additional costs with customs duties and taxes.
