For example, common black-and-white e-paper can only present simple black and white colors and cannot display rich images and color information. Although some color e-paper can display a variety of colors, compared with traditional display screens, their color saturation and contrast are still far behind, and the image display effect may not be vivid and realistic enough. In addition, under different environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity changes and after long-term use, the display color of e-paper is prone to change, which may lead to a decline in display quality and affect the user experience.
