I am still going to get a Voyage, but I have no real issues reading on my Nexus 7.2 with the kindle app. Its really snappy for me, especially after the latest update. I love the integrated whispersync on it for books where you also have the audio book and it puts it all together. There are kindle unlimited books where you get the audio along with the ebook.
I tried the Moon and a couple of other apps, but to be honest, I didn't like any of the fonts on it. I love the kindle caecelia best and its so easy to read and clear.
I mainly got my Nexus to read Scribd on it and some games and use for audiobooks. But I also read some kindle books on it. I think though I would like the lighter Voyage for kindle books. The Nexus can hurt by wrists after a while. And my Paperwhite 1 is so slow after that update that I can't even use it and the screen is so uneven and mottled its bad.
I'll wait until the first batch gets the Voyage and then I buy it.
