Hello!
I just received my Go 10.3 and figured I was going to start posting about it as I mess around and figure out how it will work for me.
Didn't see a Boox community, so I made one. Hopefully other Boox users will find it and contribute as well.

I've been thinking about one for a while, although I'm not sure what I'd really use it for. If you don't mind my asking, what enticed you to purchase?
I already have a Supernote A6X that I use as my journal and sketchbook, but I wanted something larger for use at work to sketch out flow diagrams and have the larger canvas for reference docs.
I also wanted to see how Boox's options for pens and pencils worked for drawing. I've started doing some of those tests now, which I'll be posting about soon.
Having a more tablet-esque enote device at the larger 10" screen size seemed like a better fit for news reading, so the Boox was the option that fit best.
Do you not have any enote device right now?
I have a Go Color 7 that I only use as an e-reader, but it seems like a solid device. Happy with it so far.
How is the battery life on it? I've been thinking about the Go 6 but worried about the battery life.
Like you I just want to us it as a standalone eReader and not a full on tablet. Hoping the battery lasts a decent time if you just use it like a kindle.
The battery is really good on it. I have the backlight on low, usually. I have charged the thing about once a week, I think, and I use it every day. Looking at the stats, I've read for 40 hours since I got it three weeks ago.
