Hey all,

I just joined here since I just love the E-Ink concept. Ever since I gotten the Kindle Oasis Gen 1, I just love E-Ink screens. Makes reading books and manga enjoyable.

I recently discovered that there's tons of E-Ink Android devices from China. It appeared that while the hardware is good, the software is lacking (this is nothing new from many Chinese Devices that I owed over the years). I also have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S3, but the LCD screen just drives me nuts after a while, so E-Ink it is.

I just want to see which E-Ink Android Devices with a 10 in screen I should be looking at?

Major Points:

* Run the Kindle Android App quite well using the most current APK if possible.

* Would be nice to have MicroSD storage, since the Kindle App can download books to a MicroSD card.

* Do good enough on other ebook file formats and PDF, but those aren't priority.

* Maybe decent web browsing for forums would help, maybe newspapers android apps and stuff like that for the purpose of reading only.

* Good screen for manga via the Kindle App is a major plus.

* A stylus is cool but not needed.

I say Kindle since all of my ebooks are on the Kindle format. I'm more less an Amazon slave and I love their ebook service. I'm giving my Kindle Oasis Gen 1 to my GF while I get the Kindle Oasis Gen 3 for myself for traveling and when I don't need the big screen. The E-Ink Tablet would just be for home only, and I'll primary using their Android app. Yes I can go to the DRM-free route, but honestly I just like how Amazon does their things and it's convenient for me.

I do see that the Likebook Alita coming soon fits all of my check boxes, but I'm curious what are some of the other 10 in Android E-Ink tablets I should be looking at?

Thanks!
