This is where the micro-SD card reader placed along the rear comes in play. Rather, you will have to roll up and down the lines to read it all. Also, while the curved display is great in offering a similar feel as typing on a real typewriter, it isn’t great for comprehension. However, the good thing here is that the display with its paper-like feel offers the least strain on the eyes while also being battery efficient too. That said, it being a reflective E Ink display that probably lacks front lighting, you will need external light to be able to see what you have typed.
The keyboard is backlit too, which means it is perfectly operable irrespective of the external lighting condition. The Flowo is different in this respect given that the curved display offers a similar feel to that of a real typewriter in that you can actually roll the virtual paper to move up and down the lines.įurther, the curved E Ink display, as Yanko Design reported, has the same width as an A4-sized paper and comes with a round knob on either side which can be used to roll the page up and down, something that you’d do on a real typewriter as well. Notable among them is the Freewrite or the Digital Memo Pomera DM30 all of which feature a keyboard but have a tablet-like E Ink display on top. This way, the display is the closest it can be to the real thing among all such digital typewriters we have seen emerge in the recent past. Developed by Italian designer Jody Del Bianco, the Flowo keeps things simple in that it comprises of a keyboard with a curved E Ink display attached to the upper edge of the keyboard. The Flowo – short for Flow Word – is just that. The mechanical typewriters of yore might have long gone out of fashion though the same continues to inspire manufacturers to come up with modern versions of it using the latest advancements in technology.
