I’m a lover of physical books but I’m looking to get an e-reader as well, for those books that are hard to find physical copies of, or are just very expensive.

I’ve ruled out Onyx, because I try to avoid Chinese tech as it’s usually poorly made. But I’m not sure whether Kindle or Kobo is best. Is being tied to Amazon’s ecosystem too restricting? Are the Kobo e-readers compatible with everything you need? Which ones have the best screens, ideally how a physical book would look?

So many questions, but hopefully some of you can help. 😁

    I’ve had a Boox Palma for a few months, it seems very well made. I’ve been really happy with it so far and have no regrets about buying it. My only complaint would be the battery goes quick with the radio enabled. I like the screen a lot, you can adjust all kinds of settings to get things dialed in. It’s Carta 1200, which I think is the newest and best version of eink besides the color stuff.
