Thanks for your inputs.

All ereaders are about equally reliable in cover. A Mobius screen (Kobo Forma) is of course tons more reliable than any glass screen - and all other ereaders have glass screens. Similar to smartphones - if you drop it outside the cover, do not expect the glass to survive.
A good device for on-the-go reading is a 5" ereader, sturdier due to smaller size and more pocketable. Unfortunately those are scarce these days. I got lucky when one was on offer in the market section of this forum.
