E-readers like the Paperwhite use e-ink screens. They are front-lit, making them ideal for use in the sun and in the dark. They don't run apps.
Tablets that can run apps are backlit, meaning they are not good for use in the sun.
I suggest buying one of the e-ink devices, and learning how to convert your digital books to the format that device uses. Then you're not tied to any one store.
Kindles are the easiest to use for most users I think. I use a Kobo because of its superior font, margin, and line spacing control. But it requires a tad more knowledge and techno ability.
I know from being on this forum that there are more expensive devices that run android and use e-ink screens. I'll let users more knowledgeable about those devices talk about them.
