Does the Note Air 2 give you full access to Android settings, so that you can install APKs not found on the Play store? (I'm thinking here about how KOreader gets installed—I assume you download an APK file for it from GitHub.)

[Edit: I've since seen other comments answering that question. Short answer: yes.]
Just to clarify about Android settings: the Boox firmware is a stripped-down Android 11 which doesn't have full access to Android settings, though it does have access to the "install from unknown sources" setting which is relevant here.

If you want full access to Android settings, install a launcher app - any Android launcher - and under "Settings" you'll have full access to all available Android settings.
