I didn't pay much attention to them and was a bit of a late adopter, I guess. Due to money as much as anything else. I got a Kobo WiFi when the Borders on St. Charles in NOLA was going out of business in 2011. I had a gift certificate for my birthday to spend and the price was right. I got my first smartphone a month later. The Kobo still works perfectly and I am still satisfied with it, though I got a tablet (Acer Iconiatab) last year and a real smartphone (a Galaxy S3 just a couple of weeks ago).
I do a lot of reading on my new phone and even read on the old but the Kobo's better battery life and more "book-like" feel make it nice to read on and the same, of course, could probably be said of any eInk ereader. When the weather is nice, I like to read outside and you need eInk for that. The tablet is big and heavy and I only like to read comics and graphic novels on it. I do read in bed with my phone before I go to sleep, so I don't need a light.
