Onyx Nova Pro

I am longtime Kindle user and was thinking of buying another e-reader.

I would use the e-reader mainly to
- Read books on the Kindle app - I have over 500 Kindle books and would take too long to migrate all the notes and highlights to another platform
- Read articles in Pocket
- Read WSJ and NYTimes on the Android app

Editing PDFs or drawings is not important to me.

I was thinking of buying the Onyx Nova Pro and had a few questions

- I understand it runs a heavily skinned version of Android 6. However have there been any security or privacy concerns - such as entering login for Amazon (Kindle) or ability of the device to transmit personal files back since I couldn't find any audits of their software online

- How easy is to access Google Play Store? I see the company says it's already built in but there are a number of reviews which talk about difficulty with accessing Google Play Store

- How does the device perform? Is it glitchy when using the Kindle Android app for example? Does it lag and is there ghosting as pages are turned?

Thanks
