Poor battery life compared with a dedicated reader.
Once the device needs to be charged every two-three weeks it doesn't really matter.

Even my YotaPhone will last well over a week when used predominantly as an e-ink reader. Please note that I do not have SIM card inside and use WiFi only when on vacation to check weather and snow forecast, or perhaps a museum opening hours.
