(Germany) Any sleek looking 6.5"+ EReaders other than the PW5/KOA3?

Hello! I've been lurking here for quite a bit since I got my PW2 2 weeks ago and been hooked on it ever since, and now i'm accumulating a 120 EUR budget for my next reader. (I usually buy second hand so I'm sure I can find something in my budget.)

I've been eyeing the PW5 or the Oasis 3 but I have a few concerns regarding both of them:

1. The Oasis 3 would probably be very awful to try and replace the battery once it dies (I think it's a valid concern since I'm buying second hand)
2. FW versions of them might be higher than what WatchThis supports. KOReader has spoiled me on my PW2

Also, I live in Germany so Kobo devices aren't really available here, and I'm not sure how close Tolino devices are to them (I am aware that Kobo bought Tolino a while back). So I'm looking for recommendations.

I primarily consume content in English so content availability in German is irrelevent to me.

I would prefer it to have:
1. a 6.5" screen or bigger
2. Something with decent 3rd party software support
3. Wouldn't break my bank, as I mentioned above since I don't have that high of a budget. Second hands are okay for me.
