I have also ordered a Nova2 early this week. Primary reason for buying was the fact to install any app. To read things I want to read. That's most of the time not Ebooks.
Want to use it in sunlight as a Newsreader, Pocket, Reddit, Mail and Twitter client. Also want to have a Terminal (Termux) ready, if there is a reason. Sometimes I read PDF magazines.
Runtime is fantastic! Unboxed with 92% battery on Tuesday, now it still does have 37%. Especially today I was using it a lot in my garden. Using it always with WiFi on.
Android isn't developed for E-Ink displays. X mode makes it better, but X mode isn't good for every App. Need to play with the settings. Every non-system App can have a different setting. I think Onyx makes a good job. Just don't expect E-Ink becomes a 120hz Super Amoled
On the negative side, Autorotation isn't possible and double taping the virtual button jumps straight to the Library. Should be configurable to show eg. all Apps instead of the Library.
I've also tried using the Pen and draw some notes. It's ok for me, but it wasn't the reason for buying it. Maybe I find a use case in future.
Doesn't regret my order. It's not my dream device (aluminium case, 7" 4:3 display without much border = mix of Oasis + Paperwhite, GPS, BTLE, ANT+, small speaker, SIM card for data only), but now I can read text which I want.
