Alexa needs broadband, it invades privacy. Also a hugely environmentally wasting idea for audiobooks. It may even be turned off. It needs a lot of humans to curate additions to the speech recognition and database and search.

My friend with macular degeneration replaced his phone with an under €350 unlocked new 10" Lenovo Yoga Tablet with SIM slot. He couldn't use eink or his phone. The Pocketbook ereader TTS works well. The Kindle App and others though only does one page at a time TTS.
There is a large font option and screen reading. 2G/3G/4G data and phone calls.

There are different kinds of deteriorating eyesight such as focus, wet or dry macular degeneration, cataracts and other conditions.

Buttons are good. Hence the Oasis 3G/4G may be better than the Paperwhite 3G/4G.
