3. Fast with no lags and misses as a regular thing
4. Ability to disable frontlight entirely or no frontlight.
5. Epub (now I convert everything to Mobi but main library for storage is Epub)
6. Reliable hardware and software and not needing constant attention with updates etc just to function or sort out bugs that shouldn't be there from the factory. (My K4 has never been online and never updated...I just read on it)

*I don't care about integration, wifi, mods, browsers and whatever. I just want a solid reader that I can plug into calibre and transfer books to...then read.
To me the Aura One fits all those criteria. Maybe try to order one from a store where you could return it with no problem if you ever don’t like it.
