The buttons don't feel particularly luxurious - and the fact that one has to learn which half to press doesn't contribute either. Initially it feels like half the button is defective until one learns to press it correctly.
It doesn't feel "expensive" to me at all. That, however, is something I like, as I don't have to be too careful with it.
That said I like it and use it a lot for reading. And to be fair, no e-reader that I've come across has felt "premium". They all are full of trade offs.
The OP has decided to buy the Onyx Boox Page. I hope it's good. An interesting thing about it is the decision to use micro etched glass. Like the Kindle Voyage also did. One can only hope that the result is anywhere near that of the Voyage.

So do tell us about the premiumness and the screen when you get it!

You can have the best hardware possible but if the software is poor, it's no premium. You are forgetting it's a package with the hardware and software.
