Yes, the Play Store works on the A2.
Yes, you can mirror any app to the e-ink screen.

For me, the Hisense wins by a small margin. However, looking at current prices on Aliexpress, we should probably be comparing the YP2 to the A2 Pro, which tilts the comparison further in Hisense's favour.
Thank you for responding.

Would you say the glossy E paper display of the Hisense is a disadvantage ? YP2 EPD is matte.

But I would assume you can attach an anti-glossy foil to the Hisense, the question is does it affect the touch screen's functionality.

Also, on YP2 (206 version) you could not install google play without flashing so that was a huge flaw so I'm glad to hear the Hisense is different in that regard.
