So, weight is important to me, even though I have no physical disabilities.
Ditto. (I do have physical handicap, though) Ironically, the smaller readers aren't good for resting on something. A big 10" tablet is better for that

Btw i bought a box leaf 2. It's an Android 11 reader with 7" screen, 2000mah battery, page turn buttons. It's 170g. The oasis is 187g and Libra 2 is 214g. So a bigger battery isn't the problem. Most in this thread would complain it's too thin and light. (It has other issues for me)
