Hello everyone!

I've been using larger eReaders for about 4 or 5 years now. I started off with a PRS950 and upgraded to an Aura HD when the 950's battery started failing. Both have been wonderful eReaders, but more and more I find myself reading books on my phone (Xperia Z2) as I'm finding the form factor to be a lot more comfortable. I can't help but think I'd use an eReader more if I could get something that's a bit smaller. What are my options in the 5 inch range? I know of the Kobo mini and the Sony PRS350 which is now discontinued, is there anything else on the market with a similar size? I'd also consider something in the 6 inch range but I actually haven't seen that many in person so I'm still a bit unsure about them. Basically my only requirements are that the device has an Eink screen and can read epub files.

Are there any devices that fit the bill apart from the kobo mini?

Thanks!
