If portability, 6”, and no larger is important, the one I carry outside the house is the HD3. Since you are disappointed, if buttons are important, and you are ok with slightly larger, go for the Kobo Libra. Of course, do research. There may be elements of a pocketbook which are unique to it which may be more difficult to replicate on Kobo (again, I’m U.S., not Europe, the pocketbook platform seems to have many features, whether or not you want them is your own preference).
If your only wishes are buttons, you side load and are not tied to a vendor for your books, and larger than 6” is ok, even though it is possibly more costly than you want to spend, I would recommend the Libra, especially since you are disappointed with Touch HD3.
However, if you had not stated that you were disappointed in Pocketbook, since you are in Europe, I would have recommended a Pocketbook (perhaps not Touch HD3, there are other models). I really like my Touch HD3.

Thanks a lot for your recommendation! I will look into it. Larger than 6" is more than fine, I tend to read many pdfs so that comes in handy. Are you on version 6 of version 5? I'm currently on 6 so maybe a downgrade would be better in the meantime.
