Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using your BOOX Go 6, fully charge the device using the provided USB Type-C cable. Upon powering on, follow the on-screen prompts to connect to your 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network. Once connected, log into your Google account to access the Play Store.
Compatibility: The device supports file transfer via USB On-The-Go (OTG) and wireless syncing. Ensure your MicroSD cards are formatted to FAT32 or exFAT for best compatibility.
Care: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to clean the screen. Avoid using harsh liquid cleaners, as the E Ink layer is sensitive. We recommend using a magnetic protective cover to prevent scratches when carrying the device in a bag. Keep the device away from extreme temperatures and moisture to protect the Lithium Polymer battery.
