That statement only makes sense if you are talking about PDFs. For epub, the Kobo reader is very good.

Other things being the same, I would always pick the better screen. Based on this recommendation, I would go with Tolino https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh....php?p=3646351
Except that the firmware on the device doesn't work for you. And I'm with PeterT on this, the tolino firmware is fairly basic and lacks a lot of useful function. Reading an epub is fine, but the rest feels fairly basic.
