The refresh rate of each app can be independently set to achieve optimal performance without affecting the system-wide refresh settings. Here you will learn about them and how to select the most suitable one.

Refresh Modes Explained
The BOOX Tab Series devices have several built-in Refresh Modes which are different from typical BOOX devices:
HD Mode (System Default): For reading books and other static content. It can show the crispest texts with the most minor ghosting.
Balanced Mode (Default for third-party apps in color E Ink models): For turning pages and browsing books and pictures. It has subtle ghosting, but it also enhances the screen responsiveness.
Fast Mode (Default for third-party apps in monochrome E Ink models): For browsing websites and other content that require scrolling. Although ghosting is severer, it can render a more responsive and smoother viewing experience.
Ultrafast Mode: For video and other dynamic contents. It has the smoothest response but with the greatest detail loss.
*Regal Mode: As a refresh solution with less ghosting and better display quality especially optimized for color E Ink models, it is ideal for page-turn between color illustrations such as in comics and manga apps.

Note: Only available for third-party apps.
