Even though I have the KK I do most of my reading on a Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4. I enjoy the Kindle but the Tab is so much faster to use. I love the idea of the Kindle as a single use device, just reading. As there are times when using the Tab I get distracted by apps, or I go down the web surfing rabbit hole.

I am heavily invested in the Kindle ecosystem, so I am partial to the Voyage, but there are features about the H20 that are compelling. Such as left justification, SD Card, the font varieties. I backup my Kindle purchases already, so I'm not adverse to sideloading.

I really like the high DPI of the Voyage, but I'm concerned that the Voyage's software has not seen improvements in organizing and reading quality. Srsly how hard is it to add left justification.

I don't at all mind reading on the Tab, it's got a great screen, but it would be nice to have something more immersive; where I would be distracted less by quick access to apps. A longer batter life would be nice too.

What are your experiences that are similar to mine?

I was in the exact same situation as you: going from KK to either KV or H2O. I had both of the new ones at the same time, and I greatly preferred the H2O.

It's not that much of a hassle to leave the Kindle ecosystem if you already know how to sideload books. I don't have any regrets about it.
