The iFlytek Fika is in the same category as devices such as the Boox Palma series and the Bigme HiBreak. The Fika has a Carta 1300 monochrome E Ink display that is 6.13 inches in size and has a 300 ppi. The display has an adjustable warm light and uses iFlytek’s IFR 2.0 fast refresh algorithm.

The Fika packs a 2,580mAh battery that charges at 10W. iFlytek says the battery will last up to 1 week on a single charge with 2 hours of reading daily. It will also last up to 21 days in standby mode. The compact ereader features a dedicated AI button on the right that can automatically detect the text on the screen and suggest possible questions and related reading materials.
