The InkPad 3 Pro only comes with proprietary preinstalled apps. I don’t know if there’s a way to natively install Pocket. Have you considered the Kobo Forma? It’s 8” and like the Clara, has built in Pocket integration. It doesn’t have text to speech though.

I’ve never used the Likebook Mars and but it seems quite impressive given the price point. Since you have access to the Google Play store, you should be able to install Pocket just like any other Android device. However a word of caution, there seem to be a lot of reports of software and hardware issues with this device and the obscure Chinese vendor doesn’t support it as well as as Amazon and Kobo.
