Samsung has introduced a new generation of digital display with the 13-inch Color E-Paper, combining color e-ink technology, ultra-low power consumption, and a chassis made with bio-based materials. Designed as a practical alternative to printed signage, the new model targets retail and corporate environments where visual communication still relies heavily on paper, offering a natural paper-like look with the flexibility of digital content.
Designed to replace printed materials
Roughly the size of an A4 sheet, the Samsung Color E-Paper 13″ is built to fit seamlessly into shelves, counters, tables, and doors—spaces traditionally dominated by posters and printed notices. Its 1,600 × 1,200 resolution in a 4:3 format ensures crisp and readable visuals, while the advanced digital ink technology provides a stable, comfortable viewing experience suitable for prolonged use without eye strain.
A key feature of Samsung’s Color E-Paper is its advanced color-processing algorithm, engineered to improve color accuracy and readability. Gradients appear smooth, edges remain sharp, and the overall visual output closely resembles printed paper.
This “paper-like” rendering allows businesses to transition from traditional printing to digital signage without sacrificing perceived quality. Images look natural and vivid, making the display particularly effective for promotional and informational communication in retail spaces.
Ultra-thin, lightweight and cable-free operation
The Samsung Color E-Paper 13″ stands out for its compact and practical design. At just 17.9 mm thick and weighing 0.9 kg including battery, it is easy to install and reposition depending on campaign needs.
An integrated rechargeable battery, USB-C support, and flexible mounting options enable operation without permanent power connections, simplifying deployment across different environments.
Sustainability is central to the new Color E-Paper. The display housing is made from bio-resin derived from phytoplankton, independently verified by UL. Its composition includes 45% recycled plastic and 10% bio-based bio-resin, reducing reliance on petroleum-based plastics.
Thanks to these material choices, the manufacturing process achieves over 40% lower carbon emissions. Environmental attention extends to the packaging as well, which is entirely paper-based—from internal protection to accessory boxes.
Extremely low energy consumption
The display is engineered to maintain static images with minimal power usage while preserving reliability. This makes it particularly suited for continuous use in retail and corporate settings, where operational efficiency and energy savings are critical factors.
Content is managed through an intuitive and flexible software ecosystem. The Samsung E-Paper App, available for Android and iOS, allows local content updates and control directly from smartphones or tablets, removing the need for dedicated remote controllers.
The display is also compatible with Samsung VXT, Samsung’s cloud platform for remote content and device management. Through VXT, users can monitor hardware settings, troubleshoot issues, and create and distribute content centrally, enabling scalable and efficient digital signage operations.
