That's definitely the best Android e-ink device I've had, but as with any device of the kind, it only has 1 Ghz CPU and 512 ram so you can't expect it to deal with more than 2 (not too heavy) apps in multitasking.
It used to be very fast (when I did the playstore update and had it wiped for instance) but now I probably have too many apps or I don't know (I have 47), so it slowed just a little in general, and a loooooot on Chrome (btw I tried "Brave" and it's really truly faster, so it might only have to do with Chrome).
Otherwise it works quite seamlessly with CoolReader, EZpdf and WPS office. I'm really amazed by the latter : it's much much faster than Gdocs (but you have to export as .docx) although just like Chrome, it used to be much faster.
I have a micro-usb android keyboard, designed for phones or small tablets, and it works really well. That's actually one of my "dreams come true".

- Other apps crash sometimes as well
- It keeps saying "nearly no phone space left". I suspect that might be a cause for crashes as well. Does anybody know if that means disk space or RAM?
- Cannot install apps on or move to external MicroSD card.

Yep, too few, not enough : nobody is really betting on these devices except the crowd of funders. It's probably the proof that it is really useful and also that it is not really profitable... You can use Link2SD or Msgr for instance, to have the internal set apps moved to SDcard. Facebook Lite version is actually working quite well
