Afaik, none of the eink devices except Note and Max2 have particularly impressive specs. Still, the N series is significantly better than the older models.
I believe the hardware situation is partly due to the monopoly eink has in this space with no competitive equivalent technologies in production.
For example, eink (the company) charges $250 for just the 9.7 inch display unit ->

The wholesale cost is likely to be cheaper, but there isn't much negotiation power for companies like Onyx unless there is an alternative supplier they can go to. So, the rest of the hardware gets squeezed down to maintain some margin, given the sale price.
