i havent much strength in hands and get pain in figures when using kindle as the screen seem much slower to respond to tapping or swiping and seem to get hotter quicker

The original poster is looking for an e-ink reader, not a tablet, so the iPad Mini and Kindle Fire aren't usable suggestions.

I get hand pain, too. Have you considered trying an e-ink reader? They're a lot lighter than either the iPad Mini or the Kindle Fire, and they don't heat up at all.
