Xteink S4 is running Android and will support sideloaded apps

The Xteink S4 is a new pocket-sized Android e-reader that runs Android 11 and supports sideloading apps, serving as the successor to the minimalist Xteink X4. It offers enhanced software flexibility compared to traditional e-readers but represents a routine product iteration rather than a major technological breakthrough.

Background

E-readers traditionally run proprietary OSes, but some newer models use Android to allow app installation and customization. The Xteink X4 was known for its minimalist design and basic functionality.
