Reading experience is very important since I will be reading a lot of heavy educational stuff.
Heavy educational stuff? This comes in two forms:
- New fresh expensive textbooks, either in epub or well-formatted pdf
- Old books and typed pages scanned into pdf without much consideration to the form.

The latter files in particular require a bigger screen, so go for Kobo Aura One and install Koreader on it https://youtu.be/i2oSOeAnD10

But on another note, I question the need to buy an ereader when you don't have any ebooks yet. The first step should be to accumulate an e-library little by little and read it on computer/tablet screen, and when it later turns out that there's too much to read too often and the computer/tablet screen becomes untenable, then pick an ereader.
