Are you sure you can't read off LCD?

Cause you just described a phone: high resolution, color changing screen, well-lit, 5-6in screen, and 16x9 or more.
There are lots of phones you can buy SIM-less and use as mini tablets. Some are cheaper than eink readers.

Typical screen around 282 dpi, prices under $100.
