The eye strain improvements of e-ink are due to the fact that the screen isn't "flickering" or "refreshing" itself 60 times per second like LCD screens. You're right to believe they are "easier on the eyes" (whether you need glasses or not).
Your requirements pretty much embrace every ereader out there (as opposed to LCD tablets). All the e-ink screens are pretty much dedicated readers.
All fit your bill. 6" is the most common size (there are bigger, but you pay disproportionately more).
The only thing that narrows your field even somewhat is the ePub library. Kindles can read ePubs if you're willing to jump through some hoops (either by "jaibreaking" the unit or by converting files on your PC and then sending them to your unit) but they don't support them "out of the box".
The "special features" aren't all fluff. Waterproof is nice if you use it by the pool (e-ink is especially suited for viewing outdoors), and some of the Kobos have native Overdrive support for checking books out of your local library for free.
Finally, there are older "Pearl" screens and newer "Carta" displays when it comes to e-ink. The Carta and Carta2 screens are usually denoted as "HD" or list a dot pitch of more than 200 ppi.
Screen resolution improvements in the Carta displays are a little "fluffy", but the newer models don't "ghost" after a page turn and "refresh" a little faster. But if you "settle" for a (cheaper) Pearl display, it's not the end of the world.
Personally, I'd suggest the Onyx Boox C67ML Carta2, but you could get the cheapest Kindle if you can live without a frontlight and can put up with ads on the lockscreen. Both would "fill the bill".
I'm sorry, I wasn't very clear in my question but I would like to have an e-ink one, I already have an Android tablet but I'd like something which is better for the eyes (I saw that some e-ink readers also have integrated blue-light filters, that would be a nice feature) and lasts longer battery-wise. Do you know about something which could fit my needs?
I saw this for example which says it has Android and Google Play support, does someone kow if Crunchyroll manga will work with it? And is it a decent reader?
Thanks a lot for the feedback mate, highly appreciated!
Just few questions:
- The protective case that I would get for free is THIS one, so I guess is the updated one , right?
- By reading what you wrote it seems that there's already a screen protector included? Good to know, one thing less to buy! Was it the same for both the Note and the Note+?
- About the "Certified" status: are you speaking about registering it through THIS page or effectively rooting it?
Thank you again!
I don't always hold an ereader when I read. One thing that has come in handy is a lap desk. It comes with a slot, which may be for sticking tablets into. Here's a lapdesk I found on Amazon with the same design. I stick my Likebook Mars into it and read hands free except for turning the page. The Likebook Mars has warm lighting, which is what you're looking for.
The only Kindle with warm lighting is the Oasis 3, which is not out just yet. The Oasis is designed to be held with one hand. It has a lopsided design that puts most of the weight on one side.
Assuming European prices are equivalent to American prices, either one of these puts you a bit over budget. Cheaper options include Nooks and Kobos. These have had warm lighting for a while now, though Kindles are otherwise nicer.
Why not get an e-ink reader? It will be friendly to your eyes and you will not need to install a blue-light filter by yourself. If you want a portable one and you may read PDFs sometime, I'd like recommend a 7.8 inch ereader for you. Not too big to carry or too small to read. Boox Nova Pro or Likebook Mars could be fine.
You might not be looking for a e-reader so much as you are looking for a tablet with stylus input. The big difference between a tablet and an e-reader is that the e-reader is designed specifically for reading content, whereas a tablet can perform a large number of computing tasks, ranging from gaming to internet surfing/email.
For your purposes, I'd recommend a Samsung Tab S2 10" tablet:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-32GB-Black/dp/B0134RE54W
The apps you'd use are like EZPDF and a clipboard manager like Native Clipboard or clipstack.
Don't know about that one, but I got this and I think it's great (actually bought it on eBay for $22, but the seller has no more right now). The review left tone person on Amazon is spot on: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Q8TSG5Y
I have a likebook mars. It's really nice, also has access to the play store so I'm not locked into Amazon's stuff.
If you're willing to jump through a hoop or two to move ebooks around on your own, then it's more a question of what you're looking for in an e-reader...and a backlight doesn't reduce your possibilities as much as you'd think. That still covers the Kindle Paperwhite (and/or Oasis, albeit with ads on the lock screen AIUI), or the Nook Glowlight 3, or the Kobo Aura 2...and those are indeed the major players. There are also models like the Boyue Likebook Mars and Onyx Boox Note out there if you're wanting something more platform-agnostic (sort of, since they're openly Android-based).
That said, with my admittedly limited experience with e-readers, it probably comes down to three questions:
When you go to buy a Kindle on Amazon's site, the "Add to cart" button is a "Customise and add to cart" button. Click on that, and it takes you to this page, where you can choose to buy a Kindle with or without special offers. There's even a "Learn more" link that summons a pop-up that explicitly explains what pop-ups are. Even if you mistakenly buy a Kindle with special offers, you can get them removed later and it won't have cost you any more than if you had bought the non-offers version to start with. It's not a hidden add-on cost – if you want to view ads, those ads will subsidise the cost of the Kindle.
