My first experience with Onyx was a T68 - the ancestor of the T76. That one was a dud. Later, i bought the C67ML Carta from Banggood. The C67 worked well. I now have a Kepler Pro that I bought from here. It has worked very well for me. It's one of the best 6 inch Android eInk devices that I have seen, if not the best. It's only limitation is that it still runs on Android 4.04 (officially), so there could be an app or two you may want that requires a newer version of Android. But its Neo Reader 2.0 is quite good for ePub. I received mine maybe two days after I ordered it. I'm in the USA and the store is in Germany.

The Kepler Pro has a quality feel. The light is quite even. Battery life is respectable, given Android. Calibre works with it, as does Calibre Companion. I've never worked with series and categories, but my guess is that you'd be better off installing a third party reader app.

I can't speak to its fragility, as I've never dropped it! But it feels sturdy and solid, FWIW.
