The appearance of a broken E Ink screen differs from damaged LCD, OLED, or QLED screens due to its unique structure. While the top layer of a damaged E Ink screen often remains intact, it typically displays noticeable stripes, streaks, or irregular patterns. You can see an example of a broken E Ink screen on the photo below.

Please note that all gadgets with E Ink screen require more careful handling compared to devices with LCD, OLED, or QLED displays. To protect your E Ink device, avoid twisting it, applying excessive pressure to the screen, or carrying it without a case in a bag with hard or sharp objects.
