I've had two kindles so far, but my next e-reader won't be from Amazon.
I'm trying to move my tech life away from closed ecosystems as much as possible, So I'll probably go for a kobo or boox.
For me the dream would be a really large colour ereader around 10 inches, where you can view even the densest manga or comics comfortably without zooming or scrolling. I think that's what I'm holding out for.
Have you looked into the Note Air 3 C or the Tab Ultra C Pro from boox? They're both exactly what you describe, and the Tab is out now but the Note launches October 24th.
Thanks. I've been keeping my eye on colour ereaders, and the tech has improved so rapidly in the last couple of years I do wonder if I just hang on for another year then the colour reproduction could be even better.
Can't wait forever of course, that defeats the whole purpose, but it might pay to wait just a little.
Giving you a heads up as a Onyx Boox Nova 3 owner. These devices are poorly supported. You'd get maybe a year of "updates", meaning the bundled apps are updated. But after that you are on your own.
It's a brilliant e-reader don't get me wrong, and I'll take it over a Kobo or a Kindle any day. But go in assuming that you'd want to keep it offline.
