1) Is it fast, sluggish or in-between?
2) I think I read stg. about screen flickering issue on Nova 3. Is there such a problem?
3) Leaving aside the stylus-pen pros and cons, which one do you recommend me to buy for KOReader: Forma or Nova 3?
It works fine but honestly for PDFs the built in NeoReader is just better IMO. I have a Nova 2 which is a tad slower but has the same screen. I haven't seen any flickering. The Forma is just too slow for PDFs IMO, it's still the same CPU/RAM as what was in my Aura One and it just can't keep up. The Boox devices are just so much faster than the Amazon/Kobo stuff.

If you do get a Nova 3 remember to grab KOReader off their github or F-droid. The one in the Oynx app "store" is ancient.
