Specifically to read highly formatted PDFs, I am on the hunt for a used Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7in. I chose this based mostly on these factors: relatively tough vs an ereader; easily resaleable if I don't like it; Samsung name; easy to buy a used model; faster than ereader; more adaptable than ereader in a pinch due to the whole app world out there.

It will be an experiment, I'll see if I think it disturbs sleep too much, and if there are apps to cope with sleep needs.

Care to share your thoughts? I'm still coming to grips with how to read technical literature without disrupting sleep.

In the end, my choice Galaxy Tab S2 is not cheaper than some ereaders around the same size. It just sounds better in every way except possibly sleep patterns. I'll find out.

I still mean to buy a cheaper, smaller ereader, mostly for books. Also for less demanding PDF or web content (via a workflow to convert web/PDF for the reader).
