Device: nook simple touch
I have had 3 e-readers: an early e-ink whose name I forget, Nook Simple, Onyx Boox M96. I also have a Yotaphone 2.
Nook simple never seemed fragile. Yotaphone 2 - the AMOLED LCD display cracked but the e-ink is fine (I think it's plastic).
Cracked the M96 twice. The 9.8" screen is too fragile - it didn't deserve to break. My impression is that a tablet like an iPad is much more durable.

However, I think smaller ereaders have a big advantage. Less surface area = less flex and less screen-estate to get cracked.

But I'm curious about the larger e-readers with plastic screens though e.g. (Sony DPT). And would like to know if more modern displays are more durable.
