I agree. I see on the previous page that I recommended the Aura One over the Onyx Boox N96 seven years ago. However, Onyx's newer devices are dramatically better. I would now strongly recommend a Boox for academic PDFs, and I've actually used my power as dean to buy several Boox devices for academics and doctoral students in my department to use. They're quite popular, both for reading academic articles and for things like annotating and grading student work.
