# $99 Xteink X4 Pro 4.3-inch touchscreen eReader to support CrossPoint Reader open-source firmware

**[CNX Software](https://daily.dev/sources/cnx-software)** · [@cnxsoft](https://daily.dev/cnxsoft) · 3 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

The Xteink X4 Pro is a $99 pocket-sized eReader featuring a 4.3-inch touchscreen E Ink display at 219 PPI, dual-tone front light, 16GB microSD storage (expandable to 256GB), and likely an ESP32-S3 microcontroller with WiFi and Bluetooth. It charges via pogo pins rather than USB-C and weighs just 72 grams. Notably, all units sold through the official website ship with unlocked firmware, allowing third-party firmware installation. Xteink has become an official partner of the CrossPoint Reader open-source firmware project, which already supports previous Xteink models and other ESP32-based e-readers. The X4 Pro will be officially supported by CrossPoint Reader once it begins shipping, currently scheduled for August 2, 2026.
