This is something I liked about Onyx. They have a system against flickering, to minimize it. It's called Snow (something) and it's apparently about reducing refreshing to minimum and also try to make it so it doesn't feel like "flicker".

Ah yeah, Pocketbook! I forgot about that one. Have you got any experience of Pocketbook INkpad 3 vs Kobo Aura One. I notice that they are exactly the same size.

Coolreader and Koreader set contrast apart from changing the font.

Great to know - thank you!
